By Ranked #853 - Ski Gloves February 4, 2010

I've just got a pair of these in a size 9 and I can't decide whether they're too big or not - there's room between my finger tips and the tips of the glove but it's not excessive..... They're a bit cumbersome to try and do things with and they're not tight fitting but I'm not convinced they're too big! Any thoughts on sizing guys? Is a bit loose quite good or do you want them to 'fit like a glove' as it were(!)? I know this is a bit vague sorry - any help is greatly appreciated! Cheers

Personally, I always like to have a bit of extra room but it is such a fine line between just enough extra space and too much extra space. If you haven't decided yet, I would recommend wearing them and play around with whatever equipment you would use while wearing them. If you don't have the ability to do that, just wear them around the house and see how difficult it is to do things so that you can decide if they are too large or not.
