Glove Sizing


The size of a glove is defined in the Standard EN420 as the hand circumference as measured around the palm at a point 20mm above the crotch of the thumb but excluding the thumb.



The size is expressed in inches.  All gloves with the EN standard comply with the standard sizing as outlined in the table below:

Hand Size Circumference Hand Length Approximate Equivalents
6 152mm 160mm XS 6-7
7 178mm 171mm S 7-8
8 203mm 182mm M 8-9
9 229mm 192mm L 9-10
10 254mm 204mm XL 10-11
11 279mm 215mm XXL 11-12

Many gloves do not comply with the Standard EN420. In these cases or if the size is shown as “S, M, L” the size marking should be used as an indicator only.
