Title: Gloves for skinny hands with longer fingers?
Post by: erik822 on December 03, 2009, 07:42:17 AM
Anyone know of any gloves that fit narrow hands properly, but have longer thumbs and fingers?
I would wear a medium size glove (8.5), except that I can never find one that has long enough fingers. I usually have to get XL gloves to get fingers that are the right length, but then they're waaay to big. In fingerless gloves, which I don't wear, mediums fit fine.

  I don't know if you are asking about winter gloves, but I have in a similar problem fitting into gloves. I noticed higher spec. racing type gloves fit a bit more snug.
 I wear Spidi race vent gloves which are my most expensive gloves so far, but the quality has made up for the initial price.They where uncomfortably snug at first, with plenty of finger length, until I finally broke them in.

I was just asking about riding gloves in general.

i noticed that held gloves have longer fingers for the size than say alpinestar glove or kushitani or spidi.  at least for me all the last 3 fit fine in medium but the held gloves in medium have fingers that were 1/2 inch longer or so for a same medium.
