Determining Your Ring Size 

Rings are often worn every day.  Like your shoes,  a ring should fit  comfortably.  Correctly sizing a ring is important.

A single ring size,  from size 5 to size 6,  only increases the diameter of a ring by 0.032 inches  -  less than 4% of an inch?  Here are several tips to help you measure your finger and assure that your ring fits comfortably.

  1. Have your finger size measured at the end of the day when your fingers are usually largest. 
  2. Don't measure finger sizes when your hands are cold.  
  3. The width of a ring is an important factor in determining the right finger size.  A wider ring may require a slightly larger size (1/4 to 1/2 large),  because it covers more of your finger.
  4. If possible, have your finger measured several times on different days.  This is the best way to get a true reading.
  5. We find that often, your ring finger is about the same as your USA adult shoe size! If you don't know your ring size, it's probably pretty close to your shoe size.
