Bear Knuckles gloves are designed to fit tightly for better control and dexterity. Our sizing guide reflects a glove that will fit like a second skin. With regular break-in, the leather will expand and conform to the natural shape of your hand. If you desire a loose fitting glove, we recommend sizing up (L instead of M).
Conditioning Leather for First Time Use
To achieve a perfect fit, Bear Knuckles leather gloves should conform tightly to your hands when wearing for the first time as leather will stretch.
- Put leather gloves on
- Spritz with water
Note: If gloves are water/oil resistant, use mink oil or leather conditioner instead of water - Wear until dry
Maintenance & Cleaning
All Bear Knuckles gloves are safe to hand or machine wash and dry. After machine washing, gloves will shrink to original size and may be stiff. Follow Break-in Steps above to recondition.Customer Reviews
Gifted two pairs of gloves wore one pair out on left hand, then the other pair one of the fingers tore . And bear knuckles co took care of it ! Awesome.
Probably like most, you are sifting through the reviews and trying to see if the fit is accurate on the sizing chart. I did the same.
I must have read every review on this site and in the end, I still didn't know who to believe. Some say the chart to too small, some say trust the chart. The split seems to be about 50/50.
For context, I had already purchased a pair of the black (Midnight D409) Bear Knuckle gloves in XL this past winter. I felt they were a bit small and didn't like how the slit on the cuff came down too far on the wrist and let snow in.
Still unsure of the correct sizing, this time I decided to buy the Bushwacker (HD361) in both Large and XL.
I decided to start with the chart recommended Large size. When I put on the Large, they were TIGHT, and not just a little tight... They were uncomfortably tight. I decided the chart was crazy but I kept putting them on to see if they would start to feel better. I'm glad I did. It only took a few chores around the property and the gloves started to loosen up. They still have a way to go but I'm thrilled with how comfortable they are becoming. It takes a bit to get your hand in, but once you do, it fits like a glove!
Hope this helps those who are on the fence with regards to sizing.
Love these, I have short fingers and can never find a pair of gloves thst fit correctly- they were snug at firts but after a few hours they are perfect. Will buy again
