Radical gloves sizing

Avatar

Alright all you loyal Australian brand buying people, the guys at rad have not yet seen fit to reply to my emails so I need you to tell me what size rad gloves I need. Maybe there’s a size chart on their page but I can’t find it. 21 cms from wrist to top of middle finger aaand go.

Mate, it was 15 degs when I left the house at 6am this morning for work!


I found my rad gloves fit good, but getting my hand into them was a pain in the arse!!! wrist wholes are too small.

Espesially the smittens. I broke (hear stitching break) 2 pairs in in different stores when trying on their biggest pair. That was just from putting my hand through the hole. They went straight bac on the shelf and I walked away slowly

i have the same sized hand and got the largest SMITTEN glove they had.
But like K2 said, the wrist holes on them are really tight. They also changed whatever the liner is on the newer styles which is better than the original.

19cm and Medium. So for you, get the Large!

Be careful though I found the fit was different between the RAD models though. The best fit for me was actually the schools out glove.

I am yet to find a great fitting glove though, I size down as my fingers aren’t that long but then I have trouble getting my hand through the wrist opening to begin with!

Yeah, especially Pipe Gloves, cause they can stretch laterally due to the materials used, so it really is best to go and try some on before ya buy!!!!!

18cms and wear a small. Thats in both the Smitten Mittens and the Uber glove.

The Uber glove is by far my absolute favourite
