Hmm, it's hard to recommend something without more details about the contexts in which you'll use the gloves. Nonetheless, the two fingerless options that I'd categorize into the near-BIFL category (I see gloves and shoes as eventually disposable, to be frank) would be the Black Diamond Crag Half-Fingers (my wife and use them for climbing and summitting and beat the daylights out of these gloves, but they just keep chugging along. I also brought a pair with me to Afghanistan and they held up wonderfully. With more moderate use, I'm not sure you could easily kill them) or a pair of Wristies (my entire extended family uses them as a warmth amplifier for winter sports, and we haven't worn a pair out yet. I personally wear the Tekk version for the harder face).

Thank you very much, i see shoes like that as well, but gloves go a long way, before using them at my work place, I had the same pair for at least 3 years, and when I was a kid I had a pair for over 9, so I believe they can be really durable.
