Customer's headline

Fits "medium" sized hand. Annoying finger openings.

The fit is a little variable from one pair to another (in my case the black pair is a little more snug than the white pair.) The pullbacks on the thumb and forefinger are not overlapping so they gape open a bit. (Don't let the Band-Aid fool you they didn't they closed before it either.) I will stitch this closed because it annoys me, and I don't have any trouble using touch screen with just the fabric (I don't need the pullbacks). I have "medium" sized hands with a palm width of approximately 8 1/2 cm middle finger length of approximately 8 1/2 cm, and a total hand length of about 18 3/4 cm, my ring sizes are around a 6.5 on my ring fingers and about an 8 on my index fingers. The gloves fit comfortably though, as usual, the fingers are a little short. Measuring the right hand black glove: - The length of the middle finger on the glove is 8 cm - the total width of the glove measured flat is 8 3/4 cm (so the total circumference should be 17 1/2 cm) - the wrist is 8 cm (a total of 16 cm) - the total length of the glove is about 22 cm. The material does stretch a little. The little silicone knobs offer a tiny addition of grip but not a bunch. No better or worse than other gloves that are similar. I like the snap closure but you definitely need to close it otherwise they flap irritatingly. I can remove them without unsnapping them but cannot easily put them back on without unsnapping them. The snaps themselves appear to be durable. They came with rubbery letters stuck on them at the wrist, but these are easily removed with tweezers and a little heat to soften the adhesive I used a sock with a baggie full of rice inside it heated for about a minute or so. (Hot enough that the baggie inside would burn my hands if I touched it but if I'm careful I can handle the sock without burning myself.) I imagine you could use these to drive, and I have a similar set that I used during the summer to help with the heat of the steering wheel, though I don't think that they have enough grip to assist you with grabbing the wheel more than your hands would do; your hands will have more grip but the little nubs make them slightly more grippy than the bare fabric would be. I don't know how strong the durability is though the threads on the thumb of the white pair are already fuzzing. Not coming unstitched just roughing up.
