I'm between the 8 and 9. Any advice as to what size to go for? Measurement wise I'm about a 7.5 ''.

You might want to go for the 9, but try one on first.

Also pinch the end of the fingers when you put them on, you should have about 1/4 of an inch at the end of the fingers to allow air to circulate in the glove. This is what will make the glove keep your hand warm best, that insulating layer.

I would say to go with the size that correctly fits your hand, I went one size up and they stretched out after two days of skiing and were too big. Lucky the local shop has a great return policy. Returned and got the ones that fit correctly. After two days of skiing they stretched a little and gave me the needed breathing room.

I would definitely say to size up. These gloves do fit pretty true to size, but if you're looking for warmth, if its tight it won't be as warm. The dexterity on these gloves is not that great anyway, so I'd say that there would be no benefit to going with the smaller size.
