          Upper Arm Fit Guide

          For our Opera length gloves, we take a measurement for your upper arm fit to ensure the glove has a correct and flattering fit all the way up your arm. To be clear, the measurement we need is the circumference around your arm at the point where the glove ends - either your bicep or just above the elbow depending on the style of glove.

          Please take care with this measurement and give it to us accurately. We really want your gloves to look perfect, and not be too loose or too tight. With your help we can get them just right!

          How do I measure my Upper Arm?

          Measure from where the thumb creasve meets the wrist.

          Keeping your arm relaxed, measure up the arm until you reach 16 inches. This is where the glove ends.

          Measure the circunference of your arm at this point.

          The exact result in inches is your Upper Arm Fit for an Opera Glove. Please round to the nearest 0.25 inches.

          To convert centimetres to inches, divide by 2.54 - e.g. 23cm = 9 inches

          My measurement is below 8.5 or above 15.5 inches, what should I do?

          We will still be able to work to your specification, but please contact us before ordering.

          Glove Size

          We make our gloves in hand sizes from 6 to 8½. To find your glove size, pass a tape measure around the widest part of your hand - usually over your knuckles, excluding the thumb. The result, in inches, is your glove size. If you are between two sizes, round down to the lower. 

          Here is how you convert from centimetres to inches:
          Glove size Inches Centimetres
          6 6 15.2
          6½

          How do I guess someone's glove size?

          If you are buying gloves for someone and don't know their glove size (and don't want to ruin the surprise), their height can indicate their most likely glove size. Please note, this is statistically most likely but won't be correct 100% of the time.

          Applies to women only

          Height Most likely glove size
          Under 5'1" 6½
          5'1" to 5'6" 7
