Roeckl riding gloves size guide
Roeckl riding gloves are sized by hand circumference. Measure your hand, then match the measurement to the chart below.
How to measure:
- Hand circumference: open your hand and wrap a soft tape measure around your base knuckles, not including the thumb. Make a loose fist and read the circumference in cm. A piece of string works too: measure its length against a ruler.
Fit notes:
- Roeckl adult sizes are measured in the old inch (French pouce, about 2.7 cm), so a size 8 glove is 8 pouce, which is 21.6 cm.
- Gloves are cut differently for their purpose, so the sizes are a guideline. Riding gloves fit like a second skin, because holding the reins calls for high tactile sensitivity.
- Roeckl cuts its equestrian range for the hand: a ladies' cut in sizes 6 to 7.5 and a men's cut in sizes 8 to 11.
