Step-By-Step Glove Sizing Process
For optimal comfort and performance, finding the right working gloves and disposable gloves size is a must. We'll show you how you can determine your size yourself.
Comfort should be a priority when shopping for work gloves or disposable gloves. Gloves will only fit well and feel comfortable if you have the right size. Glove sizing can be a little more complicated than you might expect, so to help you measure glove size accurately, here’s a step-by-step guide to follow.
When determining glove size, you want to find a specific inch number. Here’s how to find your glove sizing inch number:
- Measure around. Wrap a fabric tape measure around the widest part of your hand. When measuring for glove size, you should always use your dominant hand — your right hand if you’re right-handed and left if left-handed. The tape measure should wrap over the top of your hand and across your palm at its widest point. Record the size of your hand at this point in inches.
- Measure lengthwise. Once you’ve measured around, it’s time to measure lengthwise. Spread your hand and fingers and place the tape measure at the tip of your middle finger. Then stretch the tape measure down to the base of your hand, holding it taut where your wrist begins. Again, record the length of your hand at this point in inches.
