Dents Skyfall unlined glove sizing

DB6

Hi

Curious as to how these fit as I'm between sizes as my hand measures nearly 8.5" (but not particularly long fingers); I wonder if a medium (8.5 - 9") would be too big/loose (long) or if a small (7.5 - 8) would be too tight.

Could anyone who owns a pair let me know their thoughts please?

Thanks -{

I'm XL I got them in L but had to exchange. I hadn't really thought about glove sizes before.

I have have a pair of the Dents Skyfall gloves in medium and they are ok. According to the Dents site it says that if you're between sizes to go down to the smaller size as the gloves will stretch out. I hope this helps.

Thanks, looks like going for the small is the way to go.

Must be heading for discount season too

When i get home i am going to try my pair on again and see how they feel and i'll let you know. I haven't really worn them as much since i got the Spectre driving gloves. Those gloves have an awesome fit!

Hi - My hand measures 8 1/7th" and I have the Small - it fits snug and is wearing in nicely - I originally had the M but they were a little long in the fingers etc as you suggest. They were a gift and I couldn't change them - I still have them, worn once and tried on and in all the original packaging, Dent's presentation cardboard wallet with ribbon etc if you were interested in them - I keep meaning to put them up for sale on here but haven't yet. At the risk of sounding biased my view is that at 8.5" ish you may find the small too tight - when brand new the small was snug for me to get on.

I took some measurements again and the circumference of my hand is exactly 8.5 inches and i wear a medium. The fit is still pretty good and i personally could not do a small for obvious reasons. I agree with explore007 that a small will be very tight to start but the gloves will give and conform to the shape of your hand. That being said the size guide says you should size down if you're in between sizes but since you're an a lot closer to an 8.5 i'd go for a size medium.

Thanks all.

Checked and double checked - closer to an 8 than 8 1/2 so will go with a small (when the 'discount season' begins..... )

Glad to hear it. I think discount season is coming up in a few months!
