I've been getting some more fish and coral and urchins and things with stings so I could use a good pair of gloves to do things like move rocks around. I've been using some regular disposable nitrile gloves but they fill with water and get very uncomfortable. I'm looking for a shoulder length pair and I'm having trouble finding one that isn't rubber. The nitrile ones that I did find are mostly cotton with the nitrile sprayed on top and that is going to get nasty when it inevitably gets wet.

Anyone have suggestions?

I've got a latex sensitivity so can't wear anything with rubber.
 
As mentioned above, I use Pond Gloves too... (PVC so not sure if that's any good for you, but I have a latex allergy too, and these don't bother me at all.)

 
PVC gloves are great! You can pick them up fairly cheap, and a lot of them have textured fingers for grip. I'm not sure if that will effect your latex allergy or not though.
