Glove Sizes – Measuring Guide

Glove Sizes – Measuring Guide

To ensure comfortable, accurate hand protection, glove sizes are based on careful hand measurements. Use the following guide to find your correct glove size.

NOTE: Use the longest “finger length” or “hand width” measurement to find your size. If your longest measurement falls between sizes, we recommend that you order the larger size.

 

Measuring your hand:
