Safety Gloves Sizing Guide

Glove Sizes

Hand Circumference Method

Hand Circumference Sizing Method

Measure the circumference of your hand around the palm area with fingers together and hand relaxed. This measurement in inches is closest to your actual glove size. For example, 7" is equal to a size 7 glove. Sizes may vary between different manufacturers and styles. Except where mentioned, gloves are sized according to men's hands. For easy size comparison, see table below.

 

 

 

Numerical size 6-7 7-8 8-9 9-10 11
General size XS S M L XL

Length

To determine the correct glove length you need, measure from the tip of the middle finger to where the cuff edge should be on the wrist or arm; then select the proper cuff and length.
