To get the best fit, use our sizing chart, which now applies to all gloves and mittens. We recommend choosing the size you measure into, but if you’re unsure, consider how you prefer your gloves to fit—snug for more dexterity or a bit loose for extra comfort.
Keep in mind: snug gloves will break in over time, while loose gloves won’t shrink.
Lightweight Gloves
- Designed for a relaxed fit. Expect some room at first, then a perfect fit once broken in.
- No insulation or liner that needs to be packed out - just raw leather.
Classic Gloves, 4-Season Gloves, Frontier Mittens, Classic Mittens, & Expedition Split Mittens
- Like a good saddle or a favorite pair of boots, these gloves get better with time.
- These styles are insulated and will benefit from our tried and true oven method — check out Break-in & Fit below for the full rundown.
Break-in & Fit
Give'r gloves aren’t just built tough; they’re built to get better with time. When they arrive, they might feel snug. Good. That means they’re ready to be broken in. As you put your pair to work, the leather will settle, the fit will dial in, and every joint, hotspot, and bit of tightness will ease up. Like a good pair of cowboy boots or trusty baseball mitt, it takes time to craft the perfect fit. Put your gloves through the paces, and soon enough, they’ll fit and feel like they were made just for you.
