i like long cuff gloves.. even with a welding jacket with leather arms
which by the way.. I forgot to mention to the OP.. a nice welding jacket is a good investment. I think I paid somewhere between 50-75 bucks for mine from the welding store... leather arms and the green fire resistant treated facing on the shirt. worth it.
I think I might take a look at those full arm gloves.. mine currently are mide arm or a lil longer. the heat shild is interesting.. not sure if I would like it or not.. but plan on trying one one!
thanks for the pics.

...I couldn't disagree more w/ the gentlemen who suggest
you shouldn't over think gloves. True, I get accused
a lot on this board for "Over Thinking" (makes me laugh actually)
but usually my ways work VERY well...not always, but usually...
Maybe I have graduated to a professional welder?
Doubt it...but this set up is soooooooooooo nice!
I found that trying different gloves was a God send and now
I run for my elbow length gloves, AND, I accessorize each
glove with a back-of-hand/knuckle protecting heat reflective pad!
The right protection make all the difference in the world.
Here are the heat reflectors I have been running;
Here are the gloves I run, there awesome! LOVEM!
