Frequently Asked Questions

How do you measure sizing for gloves?

To get your glove size, measure your hand’s circumference around the widest part of your palm, not including your thumb. You can then use a size chart to determine your correct size. If you’re between sizes, it’s usually better to size up. You don’t want to feel like the glove is squeezing your hand too hard.

Why is it important to wear gloves? 

When it comes to keeping warm, it’s important to focus on your head, hands, and feet. When it’s cold out, our bodies tend to lose a lot of our heat through those three areas. In addition to warm beanies and wool socks, gloves are an essential part of any cold-weather wardrobe. Gloves are also important to keep your hands healthy. When your hands are exposed to extreme cold, you run the risk of getting numbness or even frostbite. Thankfully, the options on the market these days are both functional and fashionable.
