Glove Size Guide

Use the MedGluv sizing guides to estimate the appropriate size for exam gloves and surgical gloves. Fit can vary by glove style, material, manufacturer, and individual hand shape. The right glove size helps improve comfort, dexterity, and performance. Use the MedGluv sizing guides below to help determine the appropriate size for exam gloves and surgical gloves.

Exam Glove Size Guide

Exam gloves typically use standard sizes such as XS, Small, Medium, Large, XL, and XXL. Measure around the widest part of your dominant hand, just below the knuckles and excluding the thumb.

Keep in mind: Glove fit may vary slightly depending on the glove style, material, manufacturer, and individual hand shape. If your measurement falls between sizes, consider starting with the larger size.

Surgical Glove Size Guide

Surgical gloves use more precise numerical sizing. Measure around the widest part of your dominant hand, just below the knuckles and excluding the thumb, then use the guide below to find your recommended surgical glove size.

Proper surgical glove fit matters. Surgical gloves are designed for precise fit and dexterity. Individual preferences can vary, so professionals who fall between sizes may prefer a slightly larger size for a less restrictive fit.
