Are you after kelvar gloves or just sewn with Kelvar. Dan's suggestion above
is a good one. For some time I've had a metal sculptor friend who bought
welding gloves sewn with Kelvar for $4.00 a pair on Ebay. He was left handed
so he sold me the left handed ones for $ 2.00. 

That was a good deal until he died in January. I visited his widow a month
ago and she had received a new package of 12 welding gloves the day after he
died. The invoice was for $36.00 plus $4.00 for shipping from a place on
Ebay. They are nice leather welding gloves sewn with Dupont Kelvar.

So find them on Ebay and split them with a blacksmith/welder who
weld/hammers with the wrong hand.
