A pair of regular nitrile or latex gloves should work fine. Gardening gloves are too thick and the gloves made for kitchen workers stop knife cuts but not glass ones.

Mine came from Home Depot, in the tools section. They're marked "Premium Defense." Thinner than gardening gloves. Much thicker than latex or medical gloves - I wouldn't expect these to provide any protection from glass as they're designed to block dirt, bacteria and viruses.
