Hestra Gloves and Mittens UK Stockist

We are an authorised stockist of Hestra gloves selling a wide range both online and in our showroom, and offering a special order service across the complete Hestra Gloves range. We have been selling Hestra for over 15 years so can offer advice on which gloves to buy and sizing queries. Please check our sizing information below for how to select the correct size glove.

Please note that some gloves will have a slightly longer lead time as they are shipped from our external warehouse. If you select priority shipping this does NOT reduce the shipping time, as thanks to Brexit we are experiencing delays bringing stock from Sweden into our local warehouse here in West Sussex. We cannot give exact dates due to customs related delays so indicate an ESTIMATED delivery time on our listings. Thank you.

Hestra Ski Gloves Buying Guide

Hestra make gloves, and no other clothing so their sizing runs very true using the traditional method of measuring the hand. Take a look at the size chart below to determine your size.

Tips from our years of experience selling these gloves:

- If between sizes on gloves and mittens round UP a size
- If between sizes on liners you can size DOWN for a closer yet still comfortable fit
- For FULL leather gloves, you will find these a much closer fit, leather will break in to personalise the fit, but we recommend still rounding up if between sizes or wanting a less snug fit to allow for glove liners, for example
- Hestra make UNISEX and WOMENS models. If you have long slender fingers, the women's range is optimised for this

Measuring your hand



Hestra measure by running a tape measure (or piece of string) round the circumference of your hand at the palm EXCLUDING your thumb - put your hand in front of you palm facing you, and measure round the hand with your thumb out of the way at a right angle. This measurement, the girth of your hand, in inches, is your Hestra glove size. For example 8" is a size 8 glove. You can further refine your size by measuring your longest finger from the base of the palm to the tip of the longest finger.
