Practical Guide to Finding the Right Size Motorcycle Gloves.

If you don't know your glove size, simply measure your palm circumference : bend your hand slightly without making a fist and measure with a tape measure without including the thumb. Preferably perform this operation on your “strong” hand . For example, measure the right if you are right-handed, because it will often be a little wider than the other. Then refer to the correspondence table . If your measurement indicates an intermediate size, you can opt for the smaller size and wait for the leather to relax a little or prioritize immediate comfort by choosing the larger size.

When choosing the size of your motorcycle gloves, you can of course rely on the size of your previous gloves, or that of your ski gloves for example. However, check the accuracy of the measurement by consulting our size table .

how to choose the right size for motorcycle gloves

Why is it important to choose the right motorcycle glove size?


With gloves that are too big, your hands could potentially slip, giving you poor dexterity when riding. Gloves that are too tight, on the contrary, will be uncomfortable and will not allow good blood circulation. In either case, your control of the motorcycle controls could suffer.

To be sure that the size chosen is correct, press with your free hand on the space between each gloved finger. Your fingers should not come up against the ends of the gloves; there should be a margin of a few millimeters. Otherwise we recommend trying the size up.

Better yet, if you have the possibility, take hold of the handlebars of your motorcycle and move your fingers: you must move with ease and neither the thumb nor the other fingers must be hindered during the various movements.
