HI,

Anyone here using these? Just curious about the size, my index finger is about 3 1/8" long. Will they be too big?

Thanks,

Marc

I guess you didn't notice the recently posted review of it on the SF main page

I searched the forums and found that they were highly recommended, with the lone weakness being that they are very warm to wear in the summer. My index fingers are 3.5" long, I figure there shouldn't be a problem since my hand is medium size and that really matters is that the puck is wear your palm is. I plan on wearing wrist guards under them. I should be getting them in a few days and will let you know.

I did read the review.... it seemed to indicate they were made for the bigger rider. My concern was that my fingers would not fill out he glove and the finger puck would be flopping around, getting hung up on the ground.

Thanks for the reply, me know how you make out.

I just got the gloves in the mail. They are a tiny bit long, but not enormous on my medium sized hands. The key thing is that they have a lot of volume to them (which meatier handed riders will like)- but that is easily adjusted by the velcro closure. I totally think your hands will be fine (you can even move the finger puck down more or remove it altogether).

I guess a picture is worth a thousand words (btw, I just more carefully measured my index finger, it is in the 3" from the webbing, 3.5" from the middle of the knuckle). There seem very well made, the pucks seem super slippery. Again, though.. they are *very* warm so plan accordingly.
