I agree. I wear the red ones and I think the wrist wrap is a bit short
even for my skinny wrists.

Default Fit question on the grey pulse gloves


Here is a picture of my hand with the glove on. This is the size large.
For the size of my wrist the wrap is the perfect length. As you can see
in the photo the end of the wrap comes almost exactly to where the
velcro ends.

Over the past three years I have had two different pairs of the red
gloves. Every few months I had to get out a needle and thread and
restitch some of the fingers. Last month I got the new grey gloves
(size Large). I like them much better than the red ones. The quality
seems greatly improved. As far as the length of the wrist wrap it seems
just right to me.



I had the same issue w/ my size medium red gloves, but to get good
wrist support I had to sinch the straps down so that my hands would
fall asleep, and I felt like there wasn't enough palm impact
protection. I now wear 'these Protec'
(http://www.tactics.com/protec/street-wrist-guards) braces and I keep
them a bit on the loose side.

I haven't tried the grey gloves.

Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
time do it along the way.

get much better and maybee turn pro one day.

Default Fit question on the grey pulse gloves


I'll probably be purchasing a pair of the pulse gloves fairly soon.
However, I don't know what size to get!! Are glove sizes standardized?
Should I got to wal-mart and figure out what size I need?

I feel the same way about the percussion leg armor. I really don't know
what size to get. Are they available at any uni conventions where I
could try sizes on, and then purchase the best fitting pair?

Thanks for any info!

I purchased the XL, the wrist area is fine but the fingers are short and
tight. My fingers go numb so I don't wear them.

I wear mediums, I think I should have ordered larges, my hands are that
in-between medium and large size. When I do up my wraps there is about
1cm of the soft loopy velcro showing so the wrist rap is about
perfect.

Wear them everyday except when I'm injured, like now.

They are definitely the most comfortable wrist protection I have ever
worn and have saved my hands and wrists on more than one occasion.

I have a similar problem w/ my 661 4X4's. In size med. they are still
way too big in the calf, but way too short. By height I think I would
need an extra large.




Sorry for the threadjack but wanted to tell you a suggestion that works
great for me. My legs are also way to long and skinny to fit any leg
armor. So I cut my old 661's about 6 inches from the bottom up and so I
have these little 6 inch strips that work great. I put them on first,
then put my leg armor overlapping them an inch or two. This not only
adds length but it also makes my calf thicker so I can get the armor
tight and this keeps it from sliding down my leg. Maybe in the future
these can be manufactured as extensions for all us tall skinny folks!
