I've never been able to find good gloves that fit right.

my problem is the thumbs are too short and the fingers are too long.  Does anybody else have this problem, or are my fingers abnormally short and my thumb too long?

Nah you're just a freak of nature thats all

 

I have the same problem - when it does fit in the fingers its too tight across the palm, if its perfect on the palm then its waaaay too long in the fingers. My winter riding gloves are a joke! I keep catching the ends of em with my other fingers whenever I use my levers!

 

I guess they cant make perfect gloves for everyone because everyone had different hands shapes & sizes. Wish I could sew leather, I'd make my own pair!

yeah thats the way mine are / catching the levers.  which actually is a safety concern too.  suck.

i think i'm going to throw mine in the wash.  that usually shrinks them some, but i hope it doesn't make them too tight around the knuckes and thumb.  might have to stretch them somehow and break them in good.
