Ideas on how to store MANY Work gloves?

okay, this may seem like a really silly question, but I own a ton of work gloves in my shop. Dozens and dozens of pairs of gloves.

Thick canvas gloves.
Welding long cuff leather gloves.
Gardening cotton gloves.
Rubber dipped Cotton Gloves
Thin raw-hide leather chainsaw use/type nimble car driving/horse riding gloves.
Summer Dirtbike riding gloves.
Winter ATV gloves.
Snow Skiing thick insulated gloves
Rubber Chemical Gloves.
.........and on and on and on............then add even the wifes glove sizes too, so now you have a medium set and a large/XL set.

I've got a huge shop so it's not storage space, it's trying to stay organized.

I used to have an old bedroom dresser in my shop with 2-3 drawers of gloves all lumped in amongst themselves. Of course digging through you'd find 4 right hand gloves and no lefts, or jumbled all together.

Recently the old wooden dresser fell apart after 30-40 years of use, so I'm needing new ideas. Maybe something like shoe storage with individual open nooks, or some very small drawers about P.O. Box size that can keep things organized with 24-36 compartments? Maybe a wooden dowel peg board grouping gloved sets?


Might be a very gayyy sounding metro-sexual question, but for all the other man-cave wrenching shop/garage/land-owner/ranchers out there, how do you organize your gloves if you own many functionally different numerous pairs?

The Martha Stewart in me says thanks. The Tim Allen in me says you can never own too many tools or sets of gloves.
