The "how to measure" instructions are on this page: http://www.palmflex.com/glove-...
(However, the sizing charts on that page are different than the ones on the Atlas chart.)

snort! turkey silhouette!

Thanks!

Much obliged.
I'll google around for "the atlas chart"....

OH!
"the Atlas...." is a link on the page you sent me the link for....

Danita-

Can't print the turkey style chart at home, so I used the written instructions on the Palmflex page. And since have no earthly idea where my sewing tape went, I used my Stanley tape measure and a string for the circumference.

Just about exactly 6" from tip of my middle finger to where I THINK they mean the wrist to be.
And 7 1/2 circumference judging from the string I wrapped around the place where the drawing seems most likely to be the intended measurement point.

EDITED FOR ACCURACY

I found Atlas gloves at our local Ace hardware…$8.99 per pair!!!! I tried on the small, and they fit like a second skin…So then I went to the link for Palmflex, and did the tape measuring, and came up with the same…small…My palm was about 7.5, and my hand…wrist to middle finger tip, about 7.25…Unisex chart on that link says small...

Lo and behold…I decided to print the pdf…No problem…Yet the thumb falls in the med. range…the fingers in large! Yet trying on the gloves at the store were small…med. was a little bit loose at the finger tips…. Now I'm at a loss…Just hoping that the order comes true and fits!

Sandy,

May I please change my request
from "12 pairs of XL 370 Black "
to "12 pairs of MEDIUM 370 DARK BLUE "?

Thanks very much. You're probably right about the sizing.

If it

You're so thoughtful to provide me with the link, Rick. Just to let you know......I always have it up in a split (2 minimized) screens so that I can get there quickly!!!!

Go with what fit you in person!
Never mind the mental extrapolations - the physical proof trumps the theoretical!

CritterG-

Too funny, I couldn't find my sewing tape either and was using a Stanly measuring tape! At first I just measured with the tape, but to get the measurements I posted, I used a piece of ribbon and then measured that. Yeah, where the base of the hand is measured is a little vague. I just measured to the first wrist-wrinkle that was closest to the base of my hand. Geez, glove shopping is almost as bad as shopping for blue-jeans! I'm still wearing a pair of leather dress gloves that I bought in high school!

Do the XS's fit pretty tight on your hand or do they have some give?

Oh, and don't bother printing out that turkey-style chart because the "hands" (graphic) come out way smaller than they should so it's of no use.

Thanks so much for taking the time to measure your hands for me!

Danita!
...was using a Stanly measuring tape!
... . I just measured to the first WRIST WRINKLE

Second skin, Danita, second skin!
I forget they are even on me!

I wear a size 6 or 6 1/2 ring and have rather long fingers & wear the Med. I think an "average" size woman would be fine with a Med.
Tara, I can bring a pr for you to try on Sat.

@qwilter…Sounds good!!! Bring 'em! See you Saturday!

I didn't find a glove to try on, I just measured around my palm.

First wrist-wrinkle? I like the description, but I measured this way:



When i measure around the fat part of my thumb, I get 9" or "Large".

I'll try to find some real 370s to try on. Hmm, maybe I should get some Medium and some Large, then donate the poor fits to Dave and Trish to add to the raffle prizes.

LOL, CritterG!
I don't want the dreaded "floppy finger" but I also don't want them so tight that my hands can't maintain proper blood flow. Like Rick, I'll see if I can find some to try on locally.

Rick, you do two measurements, circumference of palm(without thumb) and length of hand (tip of middle finger to base of hand) and then pick the larger of the two measurements as your glove size.

I would like to order the following, please:

Nitrile 370
2 Fucshia - Small
2 Green - Small
2 Blue - Small
2 Purple - Small
2 Teal - Small
2 Mango - Small

Nitrile 370
6 Dark Blue -Medium

18 Total

Thank you!

All of you are so very funny. Also you are all a great bunch of people as I love how you help each other. I was looking at the place we are getting them from and noticed the Atlas gloves are actually made by Showa Glove Company. I found their website and I would say "Wahla" but can't spell it So I will say Ta Da I found this link for sizing on the Atlas Gloves by those whom actually make them.

http://www.showagloves.com/ass... if you scroll down you can see it better on how to judge. It also talks about not cutting off blood flow.

You are all so welcome. Thank you all for helping when I am not here and helping each other. I really think this latest chart will help on sizing and I am replacing the 2 in the first post with it.

Voila!
