Sizing for Todd's Gloves?

[mirv]

Hello everyone,

I am seeking a recommendation on the right sizing for Todd's gloves (didn't find anything concrete in a search). Todd's sizing on their website is a little mystifying to me. "Measure middle finger from tip to first knuckle."

Does that mean from the tip of my finger to the 2nd joint?? If so, that's just a little over 2 inches!! A "small" for Todd's is 3.25".

For reference, I usually wear a men's small. If anyone does or has ever worn US military Nomex flight gloves, I wear a size 8. When I measure them, the middle finger is just a little over 3 inches in length, and this corresponds to about half-way between my first knuckle and my main knuckle.

Anyhow, I am about 90% sure that I'll need a small, just want to get a warm fuzzy before I pass the info to my wife!

Also, on a side note, I'm about 5"9" and it seems like a 65" strap on Todd's Indy satchel would be the right length. Sound about right? Thanks guys!

I went to a local hardware store and tried on leather yard gloves for size reference. A medium fit perfectly for me, so I ordered that and it fit...like a glove
