How do I know what size glove I should buy? |
|
|
To find out your glove size, measure (in inches) around your hand with a tape measure across your palm. You should use your dominant hand, the right if you are right-handed, and the left if you are left-handed.
Glove Size Equivalents
Some manufacturers indicate glove sizes by number and others by letters standing for Small, Medium, Large, etc. We always indicate the size of a pair of gloves the same way the manufacturer does. Use the table at the right to translate between "letter sizes" and "number sizes". |

Historical records detail the existence and use of gloves back to pre-historic times, yet it wasnt until the 19th century that a method for sizing gloves was devised.
Glove sizes have not been affected by metrication, and are usually sized from 4 - 10. The hand that is used the most is measured, as it tends to be slightly larger. Usually this is the hand that the person writes with.
A good fit ensures good wear and comfort. |
