I use Roeckl gloves and they fit better than any I've tried before. My fingers are thin compared to my hand - apparently!! I know they do xs but i ignored them on the rack Roeckl are a nice product but aren't cheap so a tough experiment. I did find www.bikeglovestore.com which may have a bigger range and better measurements.
Good luck on your search.

Otherwise kids sizes should go down to a suitable size in summer gloves. Just not sure where to source them from ?
Found these>>> http://www.this link is broken/Mode ... elID=76298<<< on Chain Reaction, but as for the fit.....well that's impossible with online stores.

My daughter brought me over a pair of pearl Izumi gloves from the states yesterday, and in other brands I wear a large, but there large was very small.
So if you find a small in pearl, I think they would be very small.
Might be worth checking out.

I've ordered for myself and my wife in the past, and have found the pricing to be keen, service very good and shipping charges reasonable for a US site.

Ironically was going to report back today......my local bike shop's sister store had scott contessa gloves in very small size. Used them for the first time today and loved them. Never used gloves before-felt a lot happier.grasshopper wrote:Don't know if you found some Welsh Dragon, but I like Specialized and Roeckl women's gloves. I also tried some Netti women's yesterday and the small was too small. So they are around.
Thanks so much to everyone

Good point-although its not the dog I'm worried about, its finding a pair with red on-but am going to buy some online from the above options.moosterbounce wrote:Might be worth buying another pair now you've found ones to fit. I do that as I know the dog will end up chewing one sooner or later!!
