I just sent him a message through Etsy asking about gloves. I'll let you guys know when I hear back.
I'm putting together a suit myself. I decided to get a "Dark Shadow" from UD Replicas.

I'm gutting the suit and pants.
Removing the front zipper and making the back a "corset" so I can get in and out of it and make it as slim in the midsection as possible.
Adding spandex gussets to the arm pits and crotch.
Painting the entire suit Pantone Cool Gray 46 then adding the tire tread pattern in black and the armor "seams".
I'm making an 8 panel, 60" cape out of Fake Leather - 2 Way (Black). Spandex World Item # 10868
Here's what I've purchased for the suit...
Cowl:

This is just a test I did before any alterations where begun.
I'm very happy with the cowl. Fits great.Slight flexibility in the neck.
I purchased an EZCooldown cool vest:

It was about $225.00 (US) after shipping and handling and I got it in 4 days. Wow! I tried it on over a t-shirt. It added ONE inch to my chest and midsection.
For the gloves I'm thinking about going with these.

I checked Google, Ebay, Amazon, Ali Express and Etsy for "Tactical gloves", "Knuckle gloves", "Individual knuckle gloves", "Separate knuckle gloves", "Batman gloves", "Batfleck gloves" and "Dawn of Justice gloves".
Batarangs: $7!!
