Nice review! I'm in need of a new pair and have been eyeing these for a while. My hands measurements are the same as yours and I usually wear size medium mitts so I'm hesitant to go to the size 9 in the Held which is a large. Any chance you can measure the length of your hands from wrist to tip of middle finger?

Thanks for checking it out!

From wrist to tip of my middle finger is about 7". If you are worried about them being too long in the fingers like my review states, it isn't too bad. Once it breaks in those kangaroo palms are so pliable you actually start to feel indentations where you finger tips generally rest and they feel much more natural. Just give them time to break in.

sounds good. I'm closer to 7.5 so the length should be OK. Thanks.

No problem. I hope they work out for you.

Nice review. They look good! I just bought some Cortech Latigo RR Gloves which is a much cheaper buy and they're said to be a lot of glove for that amount of money. You should do a review on them if you ever pick them up, or maybe I will.

The Cortech Latigo stuff has seemed pretty good when I have seen it in person. I haven't seen the gloves, but the boots and one piece suit seems like a good bang for your buck.

I got a pair of these gloves. The build quality seemed fine but the fit was messed up. I had them in size Small.

The left hand glove was about 1/2 inch longer than the right hand glove. So it was hard to grab anything with your fingertips.

I sent them back. The issue is NOT that my fingers are longer on the one hand as I have numerous other gloves that fit fine.
