How it works
Numeric glove sizes (used in Europe and by many brands) equal the hand circumference in inches: an 8-inch hand wears size 8, usually a men’s medium. Letter sizes vary by brand, so the numeric size is the most reliable reference. Work and sports gloves sometimes fit differently — check the maker’s chart.
