Size Guide
- Measure the circumference of your hand with a measuring tape, just below the knuckles (excluding the thumb).
- If you don’t have a measuring tape, use a piece of string and then measure the length with a ruler.
The circumference of the hand is measured around the widest part of the palm. The recommended size is an indication. Hands vary, and some models have a tighter fit than others.
