Size guide for Wampa Wear gloves...


RZill

Recommended Posts

Hello, brothers and sisters. Looking for some advice about the ROTJ Scout Trooper gloves - I am building that this year, and looking for the right size. I assume Wampa Wear is the way to go. What I need is a size guide. Wampa Wear only gives sizes by small, medium, etc. - no specific size guide. I wear Nomex flight gloves, size 10 (large) for my TK. By any chance, does anyone else wear this size in flight gloves, and also have some Wampa Wear Scout gloves? Thanks!

I ordered gloves from them years ago and used their size guild.  My gloves fit...  like a glove.  That said I wear a large "mechanix" brand glove and my wampa gloves are XL.  Hope this helps.

Thanks!  I did not see this on their site.  I'll try this out.

@RZill WAIT....  checking my size with a tape puts me at a "large"  (9 inches).  but my gloves are XL and I wouldn't want them any bigger.  I would say if you are close to the next size go up.

I'm at a nine inch palm size, myself.  Another trooper suggested to go up a size, too.  The Nomex gloves flex a little more than the padded Scout trooper gloves, so they may not be equivalent by size.

I went up a size for my Wampa’s also and they fit great. Keep in mind that they do have a lining, which is great for late fall, winter, and early spring troops. They do get a tad sweaty in the summer heat and I’m in the northeast. But if you’re in a hot climate or you plan to troop a lot during the summer months, then consider removing the lining and ordering your normal size.

Thanks!  Yeah, I moved to Tennessee last year (was in Michigan nearly 50 years), and it's stupid humid here in summer.  I was only planning on trooping in this during the late fall or winter months, unless it's an indoor con with great AC.  Much appreciated  :)
