XL. Lots of me really is XL but I never thought my hands were. I think gloves are sized to make you feel good about your big, manly hands.

My hands are mostly palm. I have short, strong thick fingers and very wide, strong palms. I need at least an XL to have a chance of getting my hands in the gloves, but the fingers are always to long. Not all XL gloves are wide enough for my hands.
I'm built weird. If I had normal length legs I would be 6' 4", but I'm only 5' 9" . I'm 60" around the shoulders. I have to turn sideways to go through a normal size doorway. A lot of people think I'm into powerlifting from the way I look. I am very strongly built.
I basically got a large Scandinavian torso and frame, with short, stocky, Sicilian arms and legs.

Usually XL, sometimes L. I'm 6 ft, 170 lb., shoe size 12 hat about 7-1/4. Even though my size is pretty common, I find products I like and stick with them, stocking up when I can. Find a glove you like and buy a year or 2 supply, especially if you have "special needs"

Boco couldn't catch a cold. But if he did, it would be Top Lot.

Maybe all foreign made and not taking in account of our larger hands.

Used to be most XL’s would fit but now it’s XXL. Think gloves have gotten smaller because I don’t think my hands have gotten bigger at 66 years old. Leather gloves definitely have to be XXL.
