Aerostich Roper gloves - sizing?

[MattW]

I want to order a pair of Aerostich Ropers but only being available from the States, it's impossible to try before you buy.

According to the sizing chart on the Aerostich website, I'm a 9.5 but I have long fingers - can anyone who uses Ropers comment on the finger length - are they generous or would I be better going a size up?

cheers

I've compared my ropers to a pair or Rukka gloves (size 11) and the finger length is exactly the same. Snug with no slack at all.

Great gloves btw, between them and the Rukka's I've havent bought another pair of gloves for three years (I bought about two pairs a year prior to that).

Thanks Mike - I think I'll bite the bullet and order a pair according to the sizing chart on the Aerostich site. If the worst happens I guess I could always sell them.

Just ordered some

Theyre generous - and they shrink to fit after a few rainstorms/washes

I ordered them sized as per the chart on the website - hopefully they'll accommodate my long fingers.

Just got to wait now - arriving by snail mail - hope I don't get clobbered for duty

Bugger I wish I'd seen this earlier, I bought a pair of size 9.5s a month ago, the finger length is fine but they are a shade too tight for me so they've not been used.

If it is possible for you too cancel you can have them for £25 inc p&p.

- too late to cancel - it's a done deal.

Thanks anyway

Judging by their reputation, I'm pretty sure you could sell them on here though.

Always happy to help

Just impatiently waiting for mine to arrive now....

 

[MattW]

And they've arrived

They're great and (dare I say it), fit like a glove

The only fly in the ointment was getting nailed for bloody duty and handling fee

Mine arrived today (only ordered on Monday!)

Very nice they are too
