I am a guy and my size is 4.5" of course right in between medium and large. i know bunching up when doing pullups is a concern. should i use med?

I use a size large. "Bunching" on the grips can be a problem, I would think going to small would be more uncomfortable. The place on the grips your fingers go through can get very tight. If your size ends up too small the grips will be uncomfortable. Also the Velcro that goes around the wrist gives a little bit of variance in the size. Like I said before I would go with a little larger than smaller, that would be my preference.

The grips are leather which will stretch as it wears, i.e use, sweat, chalk. In-between people are recommended to get a size down, in your case a medium. Its easier to move your fingers deeper into the "finger pockets" than move the wrist strap down.

I'm not sure. I'm a girl & maybe I don't have large enough or strong enough hands to grip things & maybe that is why even just the tiny extra space on my hands made them hard for me to use.

I think a Medium will be perfect for you. It actually works for a wide range of weights - 15 - 70 pounds. I hope you like it as much as I do!

It depends on your current level of fitness and what you're going to be using them for. If you plan to use them for pull-ups, since 130 is pretty light you might not need that much assistance. The green band, from what I understand, is for those who are particularly weak and/or are overweight. You may benefit more from getting the purple, black, and red bands as an alternative, which are the next size down.

I have not experience any bunching behind the knee, but I only wear my knee sleeve during my workouts. I have never worn it all day or under my clothes. I hope this response is helpful.

My son is similar age/size and also fits in medium rise in almost all his diapers. (Simplex, BG, Grovia, etc) The Mediums are just fine. In fact, I have some larges and I have to fold them.

depends on your arm size. I have small arms and the L/XL fit ok. Ended up getting the Med because I wanted it really snug.

My gi is a 5/190 & fits me great. Sizes are based on height & weight, so be sure to check those 2 things in order to get the right size.

It doesn't hurt to be a little loose so others can use it if they are larger than you. However, if you plan to use it a lot the luxury of having a perfect fit Obrien is certainly nice, until you gain weight. I'd go with a large if I was you, even though you sound like a medium.

I usually workout out for 2 straight hours with minimal adjustment. It is well fitted and stays snug. Make sure when you measure between your elbow and joint if you are 11.5 and the medium is 11. Get the next size up as it will not fit and be too snug. Hope this helps

I am about the same size. I have both the med. and large. The med. is a more snug fit, which I like the best, but for a looser fit, you might like the large the best. They both keep hands warm. I use them both, alternately.

If it's a tight fit with traditional wraps I would say go with the medium to be safe. Hope this helps and let me know if you've any other questions.

I have to agree, I'm a 2X and it still has alot of room to be let out more, my wife would be considered a medium and it adjusted to her just fine. You should be good.

Go with glove size- sm or med = med - Lg =Lg . Don't think it'll matter a lot tho.

I think so, if you have a medium build. I don't think the elastic is too strong to prevent that. They're lightweight, so they shouldn't bind too much either. All the best to you!

I'm 180lbs and have the medium. I would suggest you get the small. It still may slide down with vibration, because the design. It's a great product by the way!

I have these in a large and found that with time the way they loosened makes me think I should've bought a medium. I'm 5'8 and have arms on the thin side. Feel the small would probably be too restrictive. There may be circumference measurements somewhere for protec gear online.

Not at all. You should be good to go. I am about 275 and it us huge on me. It is designed to cover a full pack so it gives us big guys some room.
