Fitting Instructions
If possible, have a friend help you in order to get the most accurate measurements. Begin by relaxing your arm and resting it on a table, bending it slightly to create a small bend in the elbow. Your arm should not be completely straight, nor fully bent.
Hold measuring tape around your wrist, going over that little bone (ulnar styloid process) on the outside. Pull tape to the point of gentle tension; there should be no slack, but you should not be pulling so hard that the tape creates an indentation. Write down this measurement in inches or centimeters.
Next, move the measuring tape up your arm so that it goes around the area of your forearm that is directly between the wrist and the elbow crease. Use the same amount of gentle tension and record the measurement.
Finally, bring the measuring tape to the upper part of your arm, halfway between your elbow and your armpit. If you have any extra skin here, gather it together as much as possible. You should hold the tape a bit tighter here so that all your skin is encircled evenly.
For the gauntlet, you should let your fingers relax, and bring the measuring tape so it’s just under your knuckles. Pull gently so the tape has no slack. Record the measurement.
If you are in-between sizes, choose the size that more closely fits your wrist than your upper arm.
Please consult a medical professional to ensure a proper fit.
