Glove sizes lh/rh glove

Post by GumTom »

Hi all, usually I like Spontex rubber gloves very much, but often I notice that the left hand glove is always a little bit larger than the right hand glove (mostly the yellow ones, Spontex Hausputz). Does anyone else notice this on this brand or is it just imagination?

Thanks.

Interesting. :hmm: Have you tried turning them inside out and putting them on the opposite hand? Is it still the same one that's larger?

You sure you don't have different sized hands? :lmao: :rofl:

I'm right handed and my right hand is slightly larger than my left... could be the reason.

I noticed this with the thumbs of Spontex gloves (they're a bit long for me in a small), but I don't think it was on one particular hand.

Spontex Hausputz are generally rather large, but I am pretty sure that the size doesn’t differ between right and left. Did you try medium size, or maybe different sizes for left and right?

I also thought the reason could be that I'm right handed. But when I turn them inside out and putting them on the opposite hand the glove is still oversize. Maybe a failure in that production lot...unfortunetaly. Will buy and try a new pair as soon as I am at the groceries... Fortunately I have more favourite brands at home for a glovely Sunday :-)
