I like my old yellow cowhide gloves, they will turn back pretty much anything. But I'm looking for something a little thinner and form-fitting; more friendly for double triggers. What do y'all recommend?

I own these and are very form fitting but more for colder weather than what you may be looking for.
I just use a pair of mechanics gloves, form fitting and no problem pulling the trigger with them on... Been using the same type of gloves for over 10 years now...
I like Watson's line. The price is right and they wear well. The deerskins are thinner than leather and allow more dexterity.
There's an insulated version as well.

Although not traditional in appearance I've used black, cold-weather golf gloves for upland hunting.
I've used a pair of The North Face all black gloves for a few years. I've used it to small game/upland hunt, shoot my bow, etc. Their just good all around gloves and have seem to lasted. A few holes in them now but quite impressed with their durability. I think I bought them for $20-30.
I use these for all my non cold temp. hunting. I like them snug around the wrist and they feel like your not wearing gloves at all. They make the same product if you want a bit of insulation to. Buy several pairs, if you have friends like me, they disappear.

I have the same ones. I use them until it gets below about -5 then I have a pair of cheap leather mitts with a hole cut in them for my trigger finger.Quote:

I use these. 3 pairs for $25

CTC sells Manzella insulated gloves. I wear them for ice jigging, they are very warm. I was thinking of using them for hunting also.
I use these quite often too.Quote:

The Duramax I was referring to have a synthetic leather palm and can't be turned inside out.Quote:

Today they go for USD79. Assuming they're the same quality as mine, I'd probably buy them again, even being the tight wad I am.
They're very thin, yet protective, perfect for warm days if you need protection from wild rose and such, I use them all woodcock season too.
They look old and beat up, when they get wet I put wife's hand cream on them once they're dry (don't tell her). If I ever lose them, I'll cry.

It can be a leap of faith to assume they are of the same quality as before. According to one review on the Orvis website link you posted they are not the gloves they used to be.Quote:

It turns out Filson had switched from an American-made upland glove to one produced in China. Back they went for a refund.Quote:
These gloves are just OK. They don't hold a candle though to the previous deerskin version sold by Orvis for years. What a disappointment to see those discontinued. This new sheepskin version is thicker and does not provide the same wonderful grip that the old ones did (which is what loved I most). I would've paid twice the price to get another pair of those!
home depot has a huge selection of gloves, not sure if its 100% what youre looking for but they have a huge selection.

If it's well-fitted, supple leather but not heavy duty you seek, try leather driving gloves. I don't like a glove on my trigger hand at all - not even ones with the finger tips cut off. It's just me. In colder weather, I wear a thick warm glove on my "off-(gun carrying)hand" and put the other hand in my pocket lined with hand warmers. The only issue I have is that I end up with a pile of the single-handed gloves! Where the heck do they go!?!?!
Got a chuckle reading this as I seem to constantly be picking up single handed gloves in the field. Mostly lefts which is good as like you tend to keep the right trigger hand free.Quote:
