With a forearm length of 10 inches (wrist to inside of the elbow), a wrist circumference of 6 inches and a circumference of 10 inches around the widest part of my forearm, I'm looking for a set of gaunts that won't look terribly out of proportion when worn over the flight suit. What are my options for a smaller set of gauntlets?

if you buy a fiberglass guantlets you can modify the circumference with heatgun

My wrist is 7", wrist to elbow 10, widest part of form arm 12 ( Close to my elbow). I have MOW gauntlets and think they look ok on me. You can pad the inside to make the tighter or even sand them down to make them closer to your arm diameter

Buy some foam at a hobby shop very cheap and works well.

I've got MoW gauntlets and my wrists and forearms are not too different in size from yours and they fit great with the flight suit on.

I saw a comparison picture between fettpride, Ruffkins and MOW, but that was posted way back in 2006 and MOW gaunts have changed since then. So not sure which is the smallest now.

I have Fettpride v4 armour and that fits fine. Is FP a good option for fit?

And does anyone have any measurements of their gauntlets?
