I got these ( the black color)as a gift for a male friend over the holidays and he loves them. Luckily, he has small hands. I also fell in love with the gloves and bought myself a pair and they fit me perfect. I feel I have average size hands for a female. When I tried these on, I must say, I thought they were female gloves. Although, they were a snug fit, but in a good way. Like I said, they fit me *perfectly*.
So, unless you are a male with a rather lanky figure, so you have smallish-medium hands, I wouldn't recommend buying these. I don't think they will fit comfortably. Actually, I feel females might have more luck buying these.
