I have a nice pair that are leather on the outside and therefore do not absorb cryogens as badly as some others, but they have a decent grip. They are sold as barbecue gloves, I chose longer cuffs.
I am not sure that OSHA will approve though. Better check with them.

I was looking around for cryogen gloves that allow you to manipulate the helium ports on Bruker magnets and especially the small valve on an Oxford magnet. The problem right now is that it becomes too tempting to take the gloves off to manipulate the valve screws when the gloves don’t allow you to get enough grip.
