How well do they fit? I am a chef and want to be able to chop food quickly. Do the gloves have any stretch to them when you put them on?

Not a lot of stretch...not too loose, not too snug. My husband uses them while cooking BBQ competitions, and brewing beer.

the gorilla gloves seem to fit true to size. I don't use them for culinary work but for patient homecare. these are very durable and we'll made. I will use these exclusively in the future.

They fit my hand well, I'm a large so they run true to size. The image provided is accurate.

I have small hands so on me they are a bit loose, however my adult sons wear them with no problems. I did use them to chop onions and they worked well. I use them mostly for cleaning and painting. I am pleased with this purchase and will buy them again when they finally run out.

Gloves fit a little snug compared to other gloves I've purchased in the past. Next time I'll order the next size up. The gloves do have some stretch.

Being vinyl, there is not really any stretch. They work for me as the large was the perfect size. They are thicker than some other food prep gloves I have gotten. I like this as don't break. I am only using them for home cleaning & cooking though. At work, I'm a nurse, we use nitrile gloves which are more expensive but slight bit of stretch & better for dexterity.

They fit well. I bought them for my cooks. They are as to perform all duties with them on.

I'm 5' 11" and of medium build and these gloves are "roomy". Not so much that that I have a lot of space at the ends of the fingers, but they are certainly not a tigh fit. Unless the guys you are buying these for have really thick hands or very long fingers, I can't image that these could be too small. I would be more concerned about them being too big for some women and some men with slender/smaller hands.

Yes they are somewhat flexible. I have not used them yet. I purchased them to move meat off the grill and to hold on to meat while I cut it. They are not as flexible as thin gloves. But to handle big items it will work. I have big hands and they are a little tight. I wish they came in several sizes.

I have a large hand, but never the less I was able to fit it because they stretch. I think a loose fit would actually be a benefit because it would harder to cut yourself with a loose glove.

I'd suggest going to a store (O'Reilly Auto, Wal-Mart,etc.) that carries the gloves and try them on. I don't even know what size I wear, but the XL has stayed true to my hands, even with the dreadful design changes. You can also wash them regularly without fear of shrinking or disintegration. I haven't ever machine-dried mine; I've hung them up.

I really don't think so. After getting these I am not all too impressed with them. They fit tighter than expected and knife points go right through them. They are kinda slippery like wool or mitten style gloves. I went with hexarmor gloves instead. They really protect from cuts and lacerations on a level that is highly above the competition. look up their site you will love the gloves. They take a little bit to break in but after having them for 6 months they hold up well to the abuse I put them through. Hope this helps

Yes, these Silicone Heat Resistant gloves will fit VERY LARGE hands (I have large hands for a women and they are so large that I have to keep pulling at them to keep them from slipping off). They only go to the wrist. They work very well for oven use but I have not tried them when cooking on the grill yet. Hope this helps.

I have "regular" size ladies hands -- and they are big on my hands, but I am able to use them -- and my husband uses them with no problem. They probably would be swimming/too big for you. It is a shame they don't come in "general" sizes (Small, Medium, Large) -- because they are the best gloves we've ever owned and worth every penny!!

I wear a size 7 in gloves, and these seemed to be true to fit. They are stretchable, so don't have to sized perfectly. I guess I'd go one size larger if you are concerned that they might be too small. But I think the sizing is quite accurate.

Absolutely. They fit snug, I don't really want loose gloves. They have a lot of friction and recover very quickly if they get dirt or water on them. Would definitely buy them again.

I don't know if anyone's answered you yet, but yes, these would probably be tight on you. They just fit me and I'm a medium glove size.

I would agree with DGNiehau--a size small would probably fit well. The gloves will also stretch out with use, so, in my opinion, it's good if they are slightly tight at first (and hand wraps will also make the gloves fit tighter).

Well, as it happens, I have frozen dough thawing on my counter today. Slipped on a glove and poked a few rolls and the gloves do not stick. (These gloves were a "one size fits all" when I purchased them and would fit a man's hand comfortably). However, given the low cost per glove, it has been worth it to me to have a "less than perfect" fit to the gloves. Hope that helps. Mary

I found them cumbersome. We all bought a pair for a wilderness kayak trip in Alaska last year and the fit for me was ok. The fingers were too long so I had no dexterity at all. Couldn't size down or would have been too tight! Grip is good but if you are fly fishing, no way could you attach a fly or leader.... they did however keep my hands warm like a wet suit would.. if your hands sweat you would want to wear a liner. Hope this helps.

"Sandeep, I also have these gloves and they are great for all my needs. Keep fingers warm in the coldest weather and I compete with them in shoot competitions which require fast firing, reloading and fire in all conditions, never failed me once. Since they are very thin and stretch comfortably they will probably serve your need very well, however I have not used them for that purpose,yet. Hope this helps, good luck

Yes, the gloves are designed to protect your hands from cuts. They work well for my husband.
