Hi there I want to buy gloves.
My measure around the palm is 22 cm (8,7 in) and my measure from the tip of the middle finger to the base of the hand is 20 cm.

are these the correct sizes:
 1)fox digit gloves-medium size
2) Oakley FACTORY PILOT GLOVE 2009-large size

will the gloves fit perfectly?


PS.from now on i am announced a commencal owner!(((((5.5.3 2009)-will give feedback after a few rides.

Hi sundance!

My hands are about same size and I use size Large Fox Sidewinders. Got a pair in XL too but those a bit too large.
I also have Dakine X-Cross gloves which I prefer over the Foxes. Although the stitching in the palm of Dakines started to erupt quite soon, but took the gloves to a shoemaker who fixed them with double stitching and now they're top on!

Anyways, I'd go for the Large size gloves. Better have them a bit roomy than too tight IMHO.

i guess it would be beeter if i'd go for the medium size.

Just checked my middle finger and mines 8,5 cm.
Tried out my gloves and the L-size Dakine is spot on, finger tips at the very end. Couldn't be any smaller.
XL-size Fox Sidewinders are a bit more roomy and comfy for finger tips except a 1cm free space on thumb.

I would suggest you to go for the large size. Trust me. Too big is comfier than too small. IMHO.

i'll most probably go for the xlarge size,since my fingers are about 0.5 cm longer.
