661 raji are my goto thin full finger gloves.

Depends on the bars and grips to an extent. I find the gel pads on my fs260 mits work really well on drop bars, but a bit useless on flat bars, vice versa some MTB gloves fit flat bars but don't work on the road bikes. So don't entirely rule out gel gloves.

100% iTrack. Was going to get a 2nd pair but CRC sold out of my size.

I trust 100% sizes too. My hand measures as large on their chart, and they always fit nicely. Others seem to class my hands as small by their size chart and I get the gloves and they're way too small.

Dakine Insight are very thin. The palm is a silicone mesh that grips well and dries really fast if you a sweaty freak like me.

If you can still get then Dakine Concept are about as thin as you will get.

POC index air are very minimal, great for this time of year, but shop around because they're ludicrously priced. I hate palm padding or any of that nonsense, so I love them. Had mine for 3 years or so and to be fair they've held up really well.

I use poc index air and troy Lee ace. Not much difference between them; troy Lees might be 'airier' but poc work with touchscreen (troy Lee might nowadays too, mine are a couple years old).

Fox Ranger isn't super thin, it's more a normal glove without all the lumps. I like 'em though

Endura Humvee Lite are nice, especially for £14.
Thin palm with no padding and a mesh back. Box cut fingers as well which should make them more durable.

I bought three pairs of the Madison Alpine off Sports Pursuit for £20 the lot. Super minimal but great for summer riding. Also have a pair of the Endura Singletrack Lite which again are a decent lightweight glove.

Fox Fleaxair are the lightest and breathable gloves from the Fox range. I get on with them really well and I'm a sweater!

I've got a pair of Leatt DBX 1.0 GripR's. Lycra-like on the knuckle side, thin suedeish on the palm with mesh between the fingers. Fit my hands very well and quite breezy.

Defeet. Work with smart phones. Around £15. Great for running in too. They are so good pro riders wear them and have their sponsor logo stitched on or just take the hit for wearing competitors brand. Work down to around freezing I find.

100% cerium or celium or something like that.

Was always a 'o gloves unless it's freezing' kind of guy, but after skinning my palms twice in two weeks I decided to glove up. Happy with these, they're quite a lot like not wearing gloves.

I like Specialized Lodowns - can be picked up for £6 from Specialized direct (plus £1.99 p&p)- bargain if they've got your size/preferred colours.
