Size guide

Due to manufacturing and glove cuts some of our gloves fit different in different sizes, we have put together a size guide below to follow for the perfect fit. 

ELITE Range 

Go a half size to a whole size down. 

PRO Range

Go a half size up or stay true to size

Academy Range 

Go a half size down or stay true to size 

 

If you don't already know your size you can read our guides below. 

General Guide

We have put together a general size guide based on type and age however to get more accurate size results we do recommend using the measuring method further down this page. 

 

 Glove size  Type Age
6 Small child 7-8
7 Child/ Junior  9-11
8 Young adult 12-15
9 Adult 15+
10 Adult Senior
11 Large Adult Senior

 

Measure Method 

This method is more specific than the general guide and should help you get the perfect fit. 

To measure your size you will need to measure from the tip of your middle finger to the base of your palm (where it meets the wrist) and across the button of the fingers, you can use your knuckles for guidance. 

 

 Glove size  Hand length (cm) Hand width (cm)
6 17 9.5
7 18 10
8 19 10.5
9 20 11
10 21 11.5
11 22 12
