Would the size of these be workable for someone with quite small hands? Any petite women using these?

I'm not a petite woman, but yes, you should not have any problem grasping these. Mostly, you lay the pad of your hands on the top and loosly grasp with your fingers. They are so stable that I could do pushups without grasping them at all with my fingers. They are tacky and don't move, and I use them on a concrete floor.

I'm a pretty tall female, but I don't think that the size of the grip really matters. I mean, I wouldn't recommend it for toddlers or people with toddler sized hands, but if you have normal adult sized hands you should be ok. The grips are a little thick, but they have good traction, so they're easy to hold onto.

My hand measures 3" and I use the small. They are perfect, and they also stretch. I think you may be okay, you do not want them big. The little bit of tightness is comforting.

They should fit just right. My hands are kind of large and they fit me a bit snug, but tolerable. Its a good investment since they are not that expensive.

I have small hands and I worried that they'd be too big. They fit well and stretch. Not good if you have larger hands. I would buy the men's which I couldn't find in a small.

I read these answers and they only caused me confusion. I am a woman with a 7.5" hand so, after listening to the comments here, I bought the gloves in large. They were too large and I returned them and ordered medium. The mediums, too, were too large so I am returning them now to get small. Hopefully, they will fit.

I have small hands and they fit quite well. I used another brand and they ran quite big in the fingers.

My wife has average sized hands for an adult female. She has no problem wearing these. But they are one-size-fits-all, so if you have truly small hands, as a small child might have, then they could be a little big on you. They work pretty well with a hot pot, so you might want to try them on for size. Amazon is great on returns.

Honestly I think my wife just guessed. She has smaller hands but didn't want them to be a pain to take off. I've got a bigger hand and we can fit the sme pair. Hope that helps.

I also have small lady hands :) and they fit me just fine. They did feel a little big but not swimming, nothing that should hinder you.

they would probably be to big for you. I like to have them a little snug to be helpful and these are one size fits all so they are to big in the hands and could be tighter in the finger even though my fingers are swollen. I hope that helps.

I have smallish hands, i fit snugly into a medium, but can fit amazingly in a small. I understand where you are coming from =] The gloves should fit just fine because they're supposed to be oversize to ensure that they protect you. I would definitely pick up the medium.

They say they're for women, but you'd have to have pretty big hands. My petite hands swim in them, so much so that I gave them up. I see that other women have a different experience. I wonder if the sizing is inconsistent?

You're right, they are kind of short -- only two fingers can wrap around -- but I haven't found them uncomfortable or difficult to use.

I have medium hands and they are slightly big on me, but damn do they work well! Love them

They're very stretchy and should fit an average to large adult hand. My daughter in law, who has small hands (wears a size 5 glove) can't use them. They slip off.

I wear a large in women's gloves and they are not too small for my hands. If anything they are slightly loose, but fine for what I use them for (mostly cleaning kitty litter).

My wife also has small hands and I bought her the 12oz gloves, she doesn't complain about the size being to big or small. My wife is also 4'11.
