Struggling to find full finger gloves that will fit.
if measuring width of my hand I am an XL but measure finger length and I am an S
See the problem?
I used to have 661 Recon and a L used to fit perfectly, but the last couple of years that model have changed in sizing and the L now have fingers which are now way to long.
Anyone got any ideas for brands to look at? or will I be forced to start cutting the fingers off
Are you Jeremy Beadle?
Is that you Mr President?
Bookmarked. Got the same issue.
In the past I have cut fingers off and sewed the ends. Then waterproofed with silicone sealant! Ugly but it worked.
Be interested if anyone has a better plan.

I'm the opposite. XL-XXL length, L width (long and skinny, like the rest of me 😉 ). Anyone else the same as me feel free to add suggestions here, especially for thin/minimal gloves.
The old 661 Rev XXL was an excellent fit on me; wish I had stocked up with a few pairs. The current 661 Comp XXL is massive but the XL is a good length on me and width just a little big.
LOL at the President comment 🙂
Lornholio - I've the same issues as you. Looong fingers... (though rest of me is not so long and skinny).
I've found these...

...to be very good - cheap too (I go with an XXL). No palm padding so nice and thin.
Sorry OP - no use to you.
All the best,

I'm with the OP - wedding ring is a size 'T', but my fingers are shorter than my (5'2", petite) wife's.
Which is why I ride in (women's) fingerless riding gloves.
Maybe we need to petition 661 to make short and long finger versions of their gloves
So today i came across some Serfas gloves.
Their Medium fits me perfectly.
Just got myself some Outdoor research gloves, their medium is almost a perfect fit for my short fingers. and they make for Ok winter biking gloves.
