How to Measure Your Hand for Gloves
Buying gloves online? Start with your hand measurements. This guide shows two common measurements—hand circumference and hand length—for people choosing everyday, outdoor or heated gloves.
The measuring technique is useful beyond Arcfomor. Each brand and model can have different sizing requirements, so follow the instructions and size chart for the gloves you plan to buy.
Watch: How to Measure Your Hand
See where to place the tape in this 32-second silent tutorial by Arcfomor. Record your measurements, then compare them with the size chart for your chosen glove brand and model.
How to Measure Your Hand for Gloves
1Measure Both Hands
Hand size can differ slightly from left to right. Measure both hands and write down the circumference and length of each, using the same unit throughout. Follow your chosen brand’s guidance on which hand or measurement to use.
2Measure Hand Circumference
Wrap a flexible measuring tape around the widest part of your palm, just below the knuckles. Do not include your thumb. Keep your hand relaxed and the tape snug, but not tight.
3Measure Hand Length
Measure from the wrist crease at the base of your palm to the tip of your middle finger. Keep your hand flat with your fingers naturally extended.
No flexible tape? Wrap a piece of string around your palm, mark where the ends meet and measure the string with a ruler.
Hand Circumference, Palm Width and Hand Length
These measurements describe different parts of the hand and are not interchangeable. Check which measurements your chosen glove brand requests.
Hand Circumference
Measured around the widest part of the palm below the knuckles, excluding the thumb. Keep the tape snug without squeezing your hand.
Palm Width
The straight-line distance across the palm. It is not the same as circumference. If a size chart asks for palm width, follow that brand’s diagram for the exact measuring points.
Hand Length
Measured from the wrist crease to the tip of the middle finger. It helps determine whether the glove fingers will provide enough length.
Use Your Measurements with the Right Size Chart
Keep your circumference and length readings together with their units. Compare them with the chart for the exact gloves you want to buy. A size M in one brand may fit differently from a size M in another.
If your readings fall between sizes, point to different sizes or sit outside the chart, check that model’s fit notes or ask the brand for help. Liner gloves and insulated outer gloves can require different amounts of room.
Measured Up? Find Your Arcfomor Fit.
Arcfomor makes heated gloves for different ways of spending time outdoors. Use the calculator and chart below to explore your size, then compare models such as Spider Silk and Feather for the activities you have in mind.
The calculator, chart and model advice below apply to Arcfomor gloves. For another brand, use that brand’s own size chart.
Find Your Arcfomor Glove Size
For Arcfomor gloves, select your model, choose inches or centimeters and enter the larger circumference and length readings from your two hands. Results are a starting point; check the selected model’s fit notes before ordering.

Available sizes: Ember is available in S–2XL. Dragonfly is available in L and XL. Other current Arcfomor glove models are available in S–XL.
If circumference and length indicate different sizes, use the larger measurement as your starting point. Fit can vary by model, so check the selected product page before ordering. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size unless that model recommends otherwise.
Fit Notes for Arcfomor Heated Gloves
Heated gloves should feel secure without squeezing the palm, limiting finger movement or creating pressure at the fingertips. A glove that is too loose can reduce dexterity and make it harder to grip tools, handlebars, ski poles or a phone.
Dragonfly Heated Liners
Dragonfly is Arcfomor's dedicated heated liner and is designed for a closer fit. It should not feel restrictive. When wearing it under another glove, make sure the outer glove has enough room for the liner, your fingers and the wrist battery area.
Spider Silk and Feather
These models can be worn on their own or layered under a roomier outer glove. They are thicker than Dragonfly, so check the available space inside your outer shell before using them as liners.
Insulated, Work and Ski Gloves
These gloves should leave enough room for natural finger movement without excess material at the fingertips. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size rather than relying on the insulation to stretch.
Motorcycle Gloves
Check palm comfort, finger length and access to the controls. The glove should feel secure when gripping the handlebar without pulling tightly across the knuckles or bunching at the fingertips.
If your measurements indicate different sizes: use the larger size as your starting point. For example, if circumference indicates M and length indicates L, start with L. If your measurements fall outside the available sizes for a product, contact us rather than forcing the closest size.
Choose Your Arcfomor Gloves for the Way You Use Them
Your recommended size is only part of the decision. Consider whether you need a dedicated liner, a versatile lightweight glove or a warmer everyday option.
Dragonfly
Best for customers who want the thinnest dedicated heated liner to wear under an existing outer glove. Available in L and XL.
View Dragonfly Heated Liners →Spider Silk
A versatile lightweight option that can be worn on its own or under a roomier outer glove. The flip-top design provides quick finger access.

Helm heated outdoor gloves
One Glove for General Winter Use
Helm is a standalone, medium-to-thick heated glove for people who need more winter coverage than a liner without moving into a single specialized category. It suits broad outdoor movement and routine cold-weather tasks better than work that depends on precise fingertip control.
Best matched to
Snow clearing, recreational winter activities and general outdoor use.
How it feels
Insulated and substantial, with room for broad hand movement.
Choose differently when
You need liner-level dexterity or purpose-built impact protection.
Shell and weather layers
Leather Where the Hand Meets the Task
Goatskin covers the palm, while polyester forms most of the back of the hand and the extended cuff. A soft padded structure sits on the hand back without turning Helm into a hard-shell protective glove.
Beneath the shell, 3M insulation supplies passive warmth and an internal waterproof membrane helps manage light rain and snow. The polyester areas receive a DWR finish, and the battery-pocket zipper is waterproof. These layers are intended for changing winter weather, not immersion or prolonged wet exposure.
Goatskin palm
A leather contact surface across the full palm.
Polyester back
DWR-treated textile across most of the hand back and cuff.
3M insulation
Passive insulation that continues working between heat cycles.
Internal membrane
Weather management for light rain and snow.
7.4V heating system
Heat Across the Back of the Hand
The heating elements follow the back of each hand and the backs of the fingers. Three adjustable settings let you choose stronger output or preserve battery runtime as conditions change.
High
About 2.5–4 hours
Maximum output for the coldest part of your activity.
Medium
About 4–8 hours
A balance of active warmth and longer use.
Low
About 10 hours
Extended supplemental warmth in milder conditions.
Estimates use the included 7.4V 3000mAh batteries; actual runtime varies with temperature, battery age, charge level and setting changes.
Fit and control
Secure the Wrist, Then Close the Cuff
The hook-and-loop wrist adjustment settles the glove around the hand, while the drawcord closes the long gauntlet over a jacket sleeve. Pre-curved fingers support a more natural resting shape.
Both thumbs and index fingers include touchscreen contact areas for basic phone use. The insulated build still favors warmth over fine typing, small controls or other precision tasks.
- Hook-and-loop adjustment at the wrist
- Drawcord closure at the extended gauntlet
- Pre-curved finger construction
- Touchscreen areas on both thumbs and index fingers
- Pairing clip for keeping the gloves together off-hand
Use guide
Where Helm Fits—and Where It Does Not
Helm works best when warmth and winter coverage matter more than fingertip precision or specialized protective structure.
Snow clearing and winter chores
A practical match for shoveling snow and other tasks built around broad hand movement.
Recreational skiing and snowboarding
Suitable for recreational use when a protective wrist insert or hard-shell guard is not required.
Cold-weather riding
Usable for winter riding when warmth is the priority. Compare heated motorcycle gloves when purpose-built hard-shell structure is important.
Fine-control work
Choose a thinner glove when you need precise tool handling, detailed finger work or frequent small-button input.
The soft back-of-hand padding adds structure and cushioning, but it is not a substitute for purpose-built impact protection.
Compare Helm With Other Heated Gloves
Choose by shell, thickness and intended activity—not voltage alone.

Helm Heated Gloves FAQs
Answers about fit, materials, weather coverage, heat settings, touchscreen use, winter activities and care.
What type of heated glove is Helm?
Helm is a unisex, medium-to-thick 7.4V heated outdoor glove designed to be worn on its own. It is intended for general cold-weather use rather than as a heated liner or a specialized protective glove.
What materials and insulation does Helm use?
A full goatskin palm provides the main contact surface. Polyester covers most of the back of the hand and the extended cuff, with soft padding on the hand back. Helm also uses 3M insulation and an internal waterproof membrane.
Are Helm heated gloves waterproof?
Helm includes an internal waterproof membrane, DWR-treated polyester and a waterproof battery-pocket zipper. These features are intended for light rain and snow, not immersion or prolonged wet exposure. Keep the batteries and connectors dry.
Where does Helm provide heat?
The heating elements follow the back of each hand and the backs of the fingers. High, Medium and Low settings allow the output to be adjusted as weather and activity change.
How long do the Helm batteries last?
Estimated runtime is approximately 2.5–4 hours on High, 4–8 hours on Medium and about 10 hours on Low. Actual runtime varies with ambient temperature, battery age, charge level and changes between settings.
What sizes are available, and how does Helm fit?
Helm is available in unisex S–XL and fits close to standard sizing. Measure the circumference and length of both hands and use the larger measurements. If you are between sizes, use the larger size as your starting point. Review the Arcfomor glove size guide before ordering.
Do Helm gloves work with touchscreens?
Yes. Both gloves include touchscreen areas on the thumb and index finger for common phone actions. Response may vary with the device, screen protector, weather and pressure used. The medium-to-thick construction is not intended for detailed typing or small controls.
Can Helm be used for skiing and snowboarding?
Helm can be used for recreational skiing and snowboarding when a five-finger glove is preferred. It does not include protective wrist inserts or hard-shell guards, so choose activity-specific equipment when those features are required.
Can Helm be used for motorcycle riding?
Helm can be used for cold-weather riding when warmth is the priority. Its soft back-of-hand padding is not a substitute for purpose-built impact and abrasion structure. Compare Arcfomor heated motorcycle gloves when riding protection is the priority.
Is Helm suitable for outdoor work and snow shoveling?
Helm can be used for snow shoveling and general outdoor work built around broad hand movements. Its medium-to-thick construction can reduce fine control, and it should not replace task-specific protective gloves.
How should Helm heated gloves be cleaned?
Remove both batteries and spot clean the goatskin and polyester surfaces with a soft damp cloth and mild soap. Do not soak, hand wash, machine wash, tumble dry, iron or dry clean. Air dry the gloves fully away from direct heat and sunlight before reconnecting the batteries.
