How to choose the correct size ring to fit properly..
-
Decide on which finger you are going to wear the ring. The fingers on your dominant hand is normally larger than those of the other hand.
-
Cold weather tends to cause your fingers to shrink a bit.
-
High temperatures and other factors like water retention, injuries, etc. can cause swelling of the finger. Measure your finger in warm temperatures at the end of the day.
-
Keep the size of your knuckle in mind.
-
The perfect fit will mean that the ring will feel comfortable most of the time, but not always. Sometimes it might feel a bit loose and sometimes a bit tight - all depending on the weather, what you eat, whether you work with your hands a lot or whether you have some underlying medical conditions. It should fit snug without leaving marks or bulging. or having to use soap or oil to take it off.
Correct fit: the ring should slide over the knuckle easily (with just a little bit of friction) to fit snugly, comfortably on the base of the finger. (Not too tight). In removing the ring you should use a little extra force and feel a bit of resistance.
If your knuckle is a lot larger than the base of your finger, you need to measure both the base of your finger and your knuckle, then select a size between the two. These rings stretch to pass the knuckle and need to fit snugly, yet comfortably on the base of the finger. No half sizes in silicone, you need to take the smaller size, eg: you need size 10.5 you will take size 10.

-
