To measure the size of your hand, apply the centimeter to the top of your hand, holding it with your thumb and covering the ounces.
Go around your hand with the centimeter, taking the inside of the palm without taking the thumb.
Close the hand and take the measurement without squeezing to the maximum. Transfer the measurement to the conversion chart below to find out your glove size.
| cm | 17,5 | 19 | 20 | 21,5 | 23 | 24 | 25,5 | 27 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| size | 6,5 | 7 | 7,5 | 8 | 8,5 | 9 | 9,5 | 10 |
When you first try on the glove, it should fit your hand as closely as possible, so that it will be as comfortable as possible after a few hours of use.

Naturally, the Saumur riding gloves are extremely solid and resistant as they were designed for repeated use in horseback riding and training which requires endurance from both the rider and his/her equipment.
But casually placed on a table, doesn’t this glove remind you of a mysterious marquis who came for a visit? Doesn’t the subtle bias cut, with straight edges so typical of riding gear, evoke the perfume of an English lady galloping towards the hunting lodge?
The exceptional expertise of Causse in the manufacture of sports gloves does not need to be proven as it has attracted the most prestigious fashion houses as clients, Hermès and Chanel for instance. Chanel is now the lucky owner of the Causse workshops, striving to preserve the expertise and living cultural heritage of traditional glove making.
Equestrian wear has always been a recurring theme in fashion and these nubuck gloves are one of its most luxurious references and a typical aristocratic tic. The incredible class that this glove gives to its wearer should absolutely be adopted beyond the stables and in the city, as it is also perfectly suited for holding a motorcycle handle or a subway bar.
