Rating: Size Caution
Reviewer: Rick W.,
This is tough review, because I couldnt even use them.
All other gloves I own are size "Large". I am 180lbs
58" and the widest part of my hand (base knuckles)measures 3.5" wide. My longest finger (middle finger) measures 3.25" from where my skin webbing starts. And these gloves in size Large were much too small. I could barely get them on. And I mean BARELY. They did seem like they were well made with durable seems.

Reviewer: TODD T., - View all my reviews
I bought these gloves to install boat docks in upstate NY for the upcoming spring. over the past 30 years I probably purchased 15 pair of hendersen gloves and are very pleased. warmth 5 star, ease of putting on 4 star, durability 3 star. dexterity (7mm) 2 star. If you want 5 star ratings in all catagories-buck up and spend more money!!!great product!

Rating: Warm gloves
Reviewer: Steve Sears, - View all my reviews
The gloves fit well dry, good and tight without constricting blood flow. The gloves are always warm, and never in danger of slipping off due to the velcro wrist strap. But after a while in the water they filled up with water and were big. Generally fine while diving, they did make my hands a little doughy. Out of the water it was clear there was a lot of water in them! They may be better in a smaller size, but would be difficult to get on.
Bottom line: warm gloves are good gloves!

Rating: Henderson Velcro gloves
Reviewer: Terry La Cross,
I live in the Oregon and use these gloves for surfing. They have excellant insulating qualities and my hands never get cold in sub 50s ocean. However a large which I ordered is actually about a medium and my fingers will not fit in them unless I work real hard to pull my hand into the glove. I have a different manufacturer of a 5mm glove in a large that fits perfectly. Make sure you buy up a size from what you usually wear.

Rating: Sizing Scale Wrong
Reviewer: Lewis H., - View all my reviews
My friend and I used the height and weight scale to purchase two pairs of gloves. A S and an XS. Both were a size to small - fortunately we only needed them for one dive on our trip and we were able to squeeze them on enough to do the wreck dive. Definitely buy a size bigger than what it says.

These gloves fit very well and arent cumbersome like some others Ive tried. They keep my hands toasty warm in the cold Pacific and Lake Tahoe.

The gloves are great! I am new to diving and am very happy with the purchase. I bought mine tight on purpose to eliminate the bulk when crabbing.

True to size. A little stiff. Have not yet used in deep water so hope they ease up.

Stephan:
Hi Im looking to buy some diving glove for myself and my girlfriend but Im unsure of what size to choose... too many contradictory infos... I measured around flat hand at knuckles, thumb excluded. Number of inches is supposed to equals the glove size I think... heres what we got:
My girlfriend who is 55 weight 130lbs has 7 inch around flat hand
I have 9 inch around flat hand knuckles and Im 510 240lbs
Can you give us the right size to choose from?
Thanks Stephan
