I put a little string wax on my fingers before putting on my glove. Keeps the finger stalls in place.

In my gloves that get a little loose I cut a small strip of thin leather and super glue it the back inside the fingers.

My stalls were loose too, so I sewed up the stitch deeper to take up the slack, maybe that would work? Good luck.

I had the same problem with an American Leathers glove.  I cut some pieces of adhesive bow silencer material, much like the soft side of Velcro, and stuck them in the inner/upper portion of each stall.
