Where to get decent liner gloves, ideally in merino if not £££?

I am an XXL in teh hand dept and have previously found "one size fits all" are too wee.

Silk ones from Decathlon? £6.99 IIRC. Full range of sizes; all seem quite small but are very stretchy. Recommended!

+1 for silk. Effective and minimal bulk.

Another vote for silk - can get them at places like Millets though are likely to be more expensive than Decathlon.

And if you get silk ones be very careful putting them on so you don't catch them on any velcro on the outer glove.

Google EDZ for affordable merino liner gloves, wore them through the winter cold snap under some Gore Tool gloves, worked well. Polypropolene (sp.) is good for liner gloves if you want something tougher and synthetic.

I have the Seal Skins Merino ones. They're good at getting extra warmth, but I have large hands, and even the largest size are a snug fit.

I've had them a year and holes are appearing along the seam between the thumb and fore-finger. These are my 2nd pair. The same happened to the first pair after a week or two and were replaced with these by the shop.

I destroyed my silk ones in a 30c wash, replaced with merino (from Snow & Rock I think) and they've been fine, were a bit of a rip-off though (like £15 I think)
