I be just in between the m and the l -lrb- 8 '' circumference -rrb- , so , base on other review about go up a size I opt for the large . though the glove fit , it be a little bit loose , but not enough to say I buy the wrong size . I do see how other user could have the pinching between the finger , but since my glove be slightly roomy , I do not have this problem . I have have it for a few week and use it 3 time a week for freeweight , kettlebell , and strap . I be glad I buy these glove . I give 4 star because it should be possible to get a snug fit glove without the pinching .
