Can anyone recommend a make of longer palmed gloves that are still narrow? Tried on so many my hands become sore and sweaty in the stores. Tired of having gloves that don't quite cover the palm of my hand (about 1 inch too short) despite being XXL -XXXL which then makes them way to wide on the hand feeling more like a catchers mit instead of motorcycle gloves. I have very narrow hands and even women's gloves don't come close to fitting either.


Cheers

Are your hands extremly big or just long fingers?

Custom made gloves may be a way forward

Finger length is normal, my palms however seem to be much longer than normal, about twice the length of my middle finger. When I try XXL gloves the palm of the glove doesn't cover the palm of my hand as it is too short but the fingers fit fine, the trouble with the gloves being XXLor more is that while they don't quite cover the palm of my hand they are also so wide and baggy an oven glove feels tighter, they just drop off my hands plus the velcro wrist strap doesn't go tight enough either. :cry:

I like Held gloves.....but I'm not sure they'll be much better for you......go to Motorcycle Live at the end of the month and see what gloves you can find there..... :wink:

There's loads of places that do custom leathers, maybe try a few of them see if they will make you some gloves :thumb:

It's official I am weird. Having visited the Motorcycle Live show and trying on so many gloves it looks like tailored/made to measure are the only option. It felt like ET would have stood a better chance of finding a pair. A big thank you to everyone for their help n this matter. :cheers:
