I don't have that specific glove but, I would suggest actually trying it on before you buy, if possible.
Not shure of thereturn policy or how much hassle itwould be to return the itemif it didn't fit.
I just boughta pair of Alpinestars SP-1 in XXXL. I have never worn a tripple XL of anything in my life!
But that was the size that fit me from trying on at the store. Still had to do some break-in stretching.

Just a suggestion.

Go to www.newenough.com good prices-no hassle returns. Got my jacket from them and very happy. Heres a link from their site explaining sizing a little. http://www.newenough.com/info_pages/...ve_sizing.html

Go a bike shop and try on different sizes...S...M...L...XL...XXL...etc.

Then order the appropriate size from whoever you want.

I wear XXL gloves...semi ling fingers...and very very wide hands. (I'm convinced my hand is wide enough for a 6th finger.)

I just barely squeeze into these.
