Winter gloves insulated top side only?

Does anyone know of good gloves that are insulated for warmth on the outside (top) only, and plain leather on the palm and grip surfaces? I've recently installed Oxford heated grips on a couple of my bikes and love them. Downside compared to heated gloves is that they leave the outside of my hands cold. I prefer thinly insulated gloves for good feel of the controls, so it seems like thin palm side and thicker/warmer upper side would be a good match with heated grips.

I've heard good things about those too, but haven't worn them. The material is intriguing.

I've been wearing Racer's Tour FHH for the past month. Full review in January's CityBike, which prints tomorrow, but I've been quite pleased with them. The FHH designation on Racer gloves is "for heated handlegrips," meaning insulation on the back, less on the palm. In this case, the insulation on the back is 6oz, but just 2oz on the palm. It's not no palm insulation, but dexterity is good.

Thank you, Surj. I've not tried any, and I'm in the market, so I'll be picking up a copy of CityBike when it hits my local places.

Thanks Surj, I got a pair of Racer Tour FHH and love them. Great fit and the top side insulation feels nice and warm so far.
