[Closed] Sweat rash on back of hands - summer glove options?

Can anyone recommend a decent summer glove with a very ventilated or even mesh back? I'm getting horrible (what I assume is) sweat rash after every ride on the back of the hand between thumb and forefinger.

Minimal padding required. Ideally a velcro cuff so I can loosen that off as well.

Specialized ridge seem to fit the bill if a bit spendy.

They do look nice. Not sure I can justify thirty quid, but maybe I'll have to.

Martin have you tried sterilising your gloves?

Sterilising? With Milton?

They do get washed regularly, but it's possible they're harbouring something vile. Apart from my hands, that is.

Don't like riding without gloves. Just feels wrong!

Thanks - seen a few fingerless which seem to fit the bill, but it has to be full finger too.

Hate gloves, best thing about summer is riding without them. (well maybe not the best thing but a quite good thing.)
