Yes, they do - well, almost to the elbow. They're intended to be used for tending to roses, so that bit o' knowledge might help you locate them.

I've got a work-around that works really well. I wear a long sleeved denim shirt that's enough protection against almost everything. My regular gardening gloves are these (though I'm not sure if they're the ones at the top of the page or third from the bottom). They are the. best. gardening. gloves. ever. The local serious/professional hardware & lumber store sells them (as opposed to the home renovation store, like, say Orchard Supply) for work gloves. I don't know why all the gardening stores don't sell them because the knit cuff and flexible but impenetrable palm/fingers make them better than almost all others.
