Hi there I want to buy gloves.
My measure around the palm is [b]22 cm (8,7 in)[/b] and my measure from the tip of the middle finger to the base of the hand is [b]20[/b] cm. My middle finger has a length of [b]9 [/b]cm.

is the [b]medium [/b]the correct size for the fox attack gloves?
or should i go for the [b]large[/b]?

Go to a bike shop, try some on, buy the ones that fit.

my hands are 23cm round and my midle fingers are 9cm long
(and I'm a saggitarius, ladies !)

recently got some fox incline gloves, XL that I "had" to buy online to clear some credit

glad I didn't just get large, esp on finger length

Scaredypants, the chart makes you a medium does it not which seems to be wayout. I am the same size and usually buy XL for a comfortable and warm fit.

I've always found that in riding gloves I'm a large or an XL, but I don't have particularly big hands. riding glove sizing is bollocks, so SimonD is spot on.
