Hello! I have a sizing issue with these gloves. According to dogfunk.com, they state that a 8.5 inch length from bottom of wrist to tip of middle finger is an XL. However, on dakine's website, they state that the 9.5-10.5 inch circumference of the palm signifies XL.
My problem is that my wrist to middle finger length is 8.5 inches (XL according to dogfunk), and my palm cirfumerence is 9 inches (L according to dakine.com).
I am torn between a large and an extra large. Which should I get?

Thanks for the help ste. I ended up getting a pair of Large. Let's just say that if there were a size between Large and X-Large, it would be perfect! Large fits well, the finger length is just enough, and the palm is near perfect.

I've got the same problem. The large will fit perfect in length but if you make a fist it will feel a little tight, and good luck wearing liners. The XL will fit your fist but will be a little long in the digits. Not a huge deal for me.
