How to choose a perfect glove size?

Gloves

Finally the time has come! You can go back into the snow and enjoy the white mountains. We all know that it can be quite cold in the mountains, so it is really nice to have some warm gloves for your ski vacation. Cold hands and fingers on the slopes is of course not what we want! We can help you to find the right size.

The size

There are several ways to find out what size your gloves should be. If you already have other gloves, you can simply check out their label and size. When you don’t have any other gloves at home, you can measure your hand. It is important that gloves fit snuggly! If you have space between your fingertips and the tips of the gloves then you can be sure that this is not the right size for you.

We understand that some measurements are often difficult to understand, but don’t worry, we will give you some tips on how to find the right size for you:
To find the perfect glove size, you can place a tape on your hand and measure the longest part of your hand. For this, you can place the tape from the tip of your middle finger down to the bottom of your hand.

There are specific ski gloves for men and women that differ in their sizes. In general, men have bigger hands and men's gloves have larger sizes available than women's gloves.

Protection

Gloves keep your hands nice and warm but there is also another reason why it is good to wear them! They protect your hands from sharp objects during falls or the sharp edges of your skis that you sometimes have to lift. By wearing gloves you can avoid getting scratches or other injuries.

If your hands get cold easily, you can also wear inner gloves under your gloves. These are fabric gloves that provide extra warmth. In any case, there are enough options to avoid getting cold hands in the snow.
