As lame as this sounds I'm wondering what some warm gloves are out there because it seems like every pair of gloves I have owned have been so cold my hands start to hurt

I was looking at the new Dakine stuff today, they've stepped up the warmth on some of their gloves, including new ones.

What I'll be probably getting for those really cold days when my Dakine Omegas (rating of 3)don't do the trick.

A lot of times, if your hands are cold, your core may not be warm enough, try wearing a warmer mid layer.

If you still just have poor circulation, you are likely better off with a mitten. Swany makes a mitten called the toaster that I really like.

But if you still want to go with a glove, something that people don't realize is that you need a little bit of space at the end of each finger. Like half a centimeter or so. Air is an amazing insulator, so if you have a little bit of air at the tips it will insulate better than your fingers going all the way to the end.

I like leather cause it's naturally breathable and easy enough to keep it waterproof. But if you fail to seal it/treat it when it starts to dry out, you can get cold hands fast/ruin an expensive pair of gloves.
