when I used "make do" gloves I went through several pair a year, largely because they were awkward and I would invariably take one or both off, stuff them in a pocket and lose them. I used to say that you could find my best woodcock covers simply by following the trail of gloves.

I alernate pairs of the Orvis gloves ( when wet through they take a day to dry) one of the pairs I am using is over ten years old, the other five or more, they are durable.
