Hands going numb and arthritic thumbs.

Pretty much says it all. I considered asking in the Clydesdale group, but there might be better ideas here.
Riding on my trainer isn't so bad, but 20 minutes into a ride outdoors, and I'm having numbness issues. If it matters, I ride my old 1986 KHS on the trainer. Outdoors, currently, I'm on my 2010 or so Performance Access 29er,
It has Salsa Woodchipper bars, and I have the 2 bikes within 1/4" of each other reach and butt to crank distance, the 29er has 175mm cranks, the KHS has 165mm.
With the weather warming, I can get out more frequently. Really quite annoying. Just happy that so far, riding hasn't annoyed my thumbs yet. I have dropped 104 pounds in the past year, so maybe losing more will help? No idea. I have tried other gloves, to no avail.
