@scott's reply about padding. Yeah, granted some don;t like padding... I was not really saying 'get loads of padding' so much as saying 'make a pressure relieving area where the nerves are by padding where the nerves aren't, making those the contact points, and relieving any pressure on the nerve-areas.
Another suggestion of mine is to make the thumbs a tiny fraction longer...i think almost no gloves allow for the way a thumb pulls tight when your hands are against the grips/hoods. It can often make quite a difference to whether you get cold thumbs or not.
This is a really good point, something about the amount of pressure on the thumb pads means the thumb of most gloves isn't long enough.
I like the silver-tip idea, just for aswering your phone or what have you.
