16.5 - 19 cm / 6.5 - 7.5" M
19 - 21.5 cm / 7.5 - 8.5" L 21.5 - 24 cm / 8.5 - 9.5" XL
24 - 26.5 cm / 9.5 - 10.5" WeighMyRack Tips: Runs very small. Some users have even reported needing to size up two sizes compared to Singing Rock's sizing chart. Elastic finger loops stretch a LOT for sausage fingers. The thumb hole is the smallest out of all gloves we've tested, so those with particularly big thumbs may not fit. If you're already on the XL end of the spectrum, these gloves may not be able to fit you at all. |

| WeighMyRack Says | Decent on parallel cracks for those with smaller hands, particularly when worn snug. Rubber is sticky but can feel numb for delicate hands or blind jams in deeper cracks. Better as cracks widen and flare a bit, though good jamming technique and strong hands are required to get the glove to deform securely in flares. A stiff, grippy, padded stack maker. When sized down and supplemented with tape, these become building materials for offwidth. Not great but decent on slippery and jagged formations. Again the limiting factor is correct glove fit and that it isn't too big for the size of crack, and trusting your jams when you can't feel them as well. |

Overall the Singing Rock Craggy may seem like a wide aficionado’s dream glove, and something to avoid for anyone with dreams of perfect hands, but that is only part of the story. This glove fits so strangely and feels so different from the rest of the gloves we’ve tried that it can be difficult to recommend without knowing more about a person’s experience and measurements. While traveling around crags and giving folks opportunities to choose any brand they like, it was rare to see people reaching back for them when they had other options in our bag of tricks to try.
