What to Do if You're in Between Ring Sizes
If you're in between ring sizes, we suggest size up rather than down.
Ring Size Tips
- Our dominant hands are generally slightly larger – measure the hand you plan to wear the ring on.
- Consider the design of your ring. Rings with wider bands will fit tighter. Plan to size up by at least a half size for chunky bands and size down accordingly for very thin designs.
- Ensure your body temperature is normal – fingers tend to shrink when cold and expand when hot. Fingers also change size throughout the day based on the water we drink and the food we eat – the best time to measure is towards the end of the day.
- If your knuckle is pronounced, you may want to measure both the knuckle and the base of the finger. Then, choose a size in between those measurements as rings need to fit over the knuckle but not be too loose or tight to wear comfortably.
