Choosing the right glove size is important. We stress that you don’t dive in and go with a medium because you think your hands are an average size, but take the time to measure your hands according to the sizing guide that you will find in each and every listing. An ill-fitting glove is only ever going to put your safety at risk.
Three Reasons Why Glove Size Matters
- Your Safety: The main result of an ill-fitting glove is less safety for you. An ill-fitting glove won’t provide the right protection in the right part of the hand, whereas a well-fitting glove will fit snugly and cover all areas.
- Your Comfort: During a long shift at work, comfort is paramount. A nicely fitting glove can really make a different, reducing stress while handling and reducing the impact of abrasion, cuts, knocks and scrapes.
- Your Bank Account: To put it simply, an ill-fitting glove will just not last as long. Baggy areas on the glove are open to damage, while a tight glove will put unnecessary stress on a glove seams.
How to Choose the Right Sized Gloves
Every single glove on our website will include sizing information, and we encourage that you read this information before purchase. After all, we care for your safety and the right sized glove is just as important as the standards that a glove will offer.

1) Hand Circumference
The first thing you will be asked to measure for most of our gloves is the circumference around your hand. This must be just below the knuckles and excluding the thumb. Keep your fingers together, and for the best results use a piece of string which you can then match to a ruler or tape measure.
2) Hand Length
This is pretty simple. Measure the length of your hand from where your wrist ends and your hand starts, to the tip of your middle finger. You can use a ruler or tape measure for the most accurate results.
3) Hand Width
