I have to replace my warm water diving gloves. Warmth is not important and I would like to find a tough well made pair.

I would like to have a pair that is pretty nimble.

I picked these up at the Beneath the Sea show for about $10 a pair.

They work great in the tropics when you are allowed to use them. Some Caribbean dive destinations forbid the use of gloves.

just purchased Pinnicle 5m gloves; excellent - they also come in 3m

most of my winter diving is in S Fl; water temps 75 - 76 and I'm very pleased with them, good mobility
 
Go to Home Depot or Lowes and buy them on sale when they have a close out. Regular work gloves (synthetic) They are just as good and last much longer than scuba gloves. I use them every week in the aquarium and when I travel.
 
The ones I have seen at Lowes and Home Depot look almost the same as the ones I have seen at the dive shops. The materials are the same just different badges.
 
Saw some inexpensive lightweight neoprene with leather palms at a WalMart in an unexpected place. ... With the firearms - shooting gloves! They looked like perfect warm water gloves.
 
For years I used a a pair of water ski gloves. They worked great and were inexpensive.
 
Depends on your needs. For fussing with buoy stations, long time submerged lines and markers:

Playtex dish washing gloves. If I need something tougher, I use discarded lineman's gloves, but nowhere near the dexterity.
