Hey Adel
How are you doing? Thanks for the comment on my profile! Hope your liking it on the site! Anyway hope all is well n hope to hear from you soon!
Adel, I have found that firedex gloves are best when short fingers are an issue. If the problem is slender hands then I'd suggest trying a pair of rescue gloves under the structure gloves. My morning Pride jacket and Pants fit me very well. As for my boots my favorites are black diamonds. They are a bit more slender than others I've tried.
Thuragood leather boots are awesome boots. Also I have found that Globe Fire gear fits better than any other that I have used. I have the same problem with gloves but some of them come in extra small and that seems to help.
i'll be more than happy to pass on what i know. if u want, send me your email or yahoo im and i can let you know what gear i really like. talk to u soon. stay safe
Hi Adel,
I usually dont have any problem with gloves as there are men that I work with with smaller hands than me!. With uniforms in Australia where Im from, we have uniforms in both male and female sizing... both dress uniforms and turn out gear, so its not really an issue. Sometimes the turn out gear is male fitting but can be adjusted slightly to fit females. Or wearing braces helps. For the smaller framed females gloves and uniforms can be an issue however. But then uniforms are usually made to order or adjusted accordingly. Helmets are usually an issue, however we can buy them ourselves off a supplier if we either have a bigger or smaller head compared to normal. Hope this has helped
