I don't know if they have a name aside from long sleeves with finger loops, or arm warmers

I've seen some call them bridal gauntlets, but I dunno if that's accurate outside of actual wedding gowns.

Tekkou is the term I found.

-e-
Tekkou is the general term for everything covering the back of your hand and forearm.
Gauntlets can be called Tekkou as well.
They were commonly worn by peasants, samurai and monks. Miroku from Inuyasha is also wearing Tekkou.
There are even Nagatekkou, which go up to your shoulder, as seen on Prince Ashitaka in Mononoke Hime and Shichika in Katanagatari.

cool, thanks
