FAQs
How do I measure my hand for Mechanix Gloves?
Wrap a measuring tape around the widest part of your palm (excluding the thumb) to get the circumference in centimetres or inches. Compare that number to the size chart to find your fit.
Do Mechanix Gloves run true to size?
Yes, most users find Mechanix Gloves run true to size. Always refer to an official size chart, such as the one we’ve provided here, since different styles may fit slightly differently.
What should I get if I’m between sizes?
If your measurement falls between sizes, it is recommended to choose the smaller size for a more snug, precise fit.
How should a properly sized glove feel?
A properly-sized glove should be snug around the palm and fingertips without pinching. You want full dexterity; your fingers should touch the tips comfortably without extra slack.
Are Mechanix Gloves machine-washable?
Most Mechanix Gloves are machine-washable on a gentle cycle. They may shrink slightly if exposed to high heat; always air-dry to maintain proper fit.
How should you wash your gloves?
Check the care label and, if machine-washable, use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. As mentioned above, the majority of Mechanix Gloves are 100% machine washable. Do not use bleach or solvents.
For delicate or leather gloves, hand-wash in lukewarm water with a small amount of gentle soap, rinse thoroughly, then gently squeeze out excess water without wringing.
To dry your gloves, lay them flat to air-dry away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent shrinking.
How should you care for your gloves?
Store gloves flat or hanging in a cool, dry place – avoid stuffing them in tight pockets or leaving them in direct sunlight. For leather gloves, apply a thin layer of leather conditioner every few months to maintain suppleness. Keep fabric gloves away from abrasive surfaces and oils; if they become stained, spot-clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
