I think weightlifting glove be one of those item that you really need to try on before purchase . nevertheless the price be right on Amazon so I take the plunge only to find out that the size be not ideal . I be somewhere between a l and a XL , but the way these glove be make I do not think either would have fit I quite right . the glove look ok , but there be some strange sewing\/fabric near the finger that just irritated I enough to not want to wear they when lifting . ever since my wife make I start lift with glove to avoid those manly callouse I can not lift without they , but I much prefer the Nike strength glove which be make of a much thinner fabric and have a zipper to close as oppose to irritating velcro .
