Glove Size Calculator

Find your glove size from your hand circumference — for ski, cycling, work and winter gloves.

🧤 Measure around your palm. Wrap a tape around the widest part of your hand at the knuckles (not including the thumb), make a light fist, and read the circumference. Brands vary, so check the specific glove chart — ski and work gloves often run larger to fit liners.

Find your glove size

⚠️ Bands vary by brand and glove type. Measure your dominant hand, and remember ski and work gloves often run larger to fit liners.

How to measure

  1. Wrap around your palm

    Wrap a soft tape around the widest part of your hand at the knuckles, keeping the thumb out.

  2. Snug, not tight

    Keep it snug but not tight, and make a light fist to check movement.

  3. Match to the size

    Compare your cm measurement to the band — the calculator gives the standard size.

  4. Check the movement

    A good glove is snug with a little fingertip room and lets you make a fist comfortably.

How these sizes are calculated

Bike frame sizes are derived from inseam using the standard fit multipliers (road x0.70, hybrid x0.685, mountain x0.225 in inches), with a height band as a quick starting point. Helmet and glove sizes map a body circumference to size bands. These are starting points — geometry and fit vary by brand, so confirm before buying, and for safety gear like helmets, never ride in one that doesn't fit.

Sources: Bike fit formulas & height/inseam charts (Cyclists Hub, RoadBikeRider, Icebike, 2026); Helmet head-circumference bands cross-checked (evo, multiple manufacturers, 2026); Glove hand-circumference sizing (standard S/M/L/XL bands).
