Unlined rubber gloves?

Niche question I know, but does anyone know where I can buy unlined household / washing up rubber gloves in the UK?

When I am doing chores, I can easily wear gloves for 2-3 hours. I really hate the feeling of Marigolds and other gloves with cotton-flock style lining. I used to buy the "Bizzybee Elegance" or "Satin Touch" gloves, which had a smooth/silky rubber lining and were extremely comfortable. Spontex also did some gloves called "Silky" which were good. For some reason I cannot find any supermarkets which still sell them. Most of the supermarkets near me only now sell Marigolds or equally rubbish own brand ones.

The only alternative I have found is to wear disposables instead (sometimes under Marigolds), but I end up going through a few dozens pairs a week, which seems pretty wasteful, so any recommendations would be much appreciated!

Poundland or poundstretcher sell them I got a pack with two pairs in last week.

They might also sell them in savers.

Thanks for the recommendations. A friend who now lives in Italy also suggested trying to pick some up a few pairs when I’m next abroad. For some reason they appear to have way more choice whereas we just have rubbish Margiolds!
