Finding the right glove size is easy – you only need two measurements: your palm circumference and your middle finger length. Follow the pictures below and compare your numbers with the size table.

How to measure glove size - palm circumference and middle finger length
Measure palm circumference around the widest part (excluding the thumb), then measure the middle finger length with a ruler.

Step 1 – Palm circumference

Wrap a soft measuring tape around the widest part of your palm, excluding the thumb. Keep the tape flat and level with the thumb crotch (the V between thumb and index finger), sitting at right angles to your fingers – neither too tight nor too loose. The reading is your palm circumference, e.g. 17.5 cm fits size M or L.

Step 2 – Middle finger length

Place a ruler from the crease where the middle finger joins the palm to the fingertip and read from directly above. Measure on the palm side in a straight line – never from the back of the hand, never bending around the nail.

Pick your size by palm circumference only. There is no need to order a size up: genuine leather has 10–15% elasticity, so a fluctuation of about ±0.3 cm is normal, and the same hand usually fits two sizes. If your fingers are unusually long or your hand is very slim, also compare the middle finger length.
