Not what I was hoping for, but functional.
While in theory these seem like a good idea, overall they fail. The sizing for most women is too large, but it is great for plus size ladies. That is if you like itchy material.Published: December 6, 2011
Pros:
Cute design and match wide variety of outfits.
Cons:
Sizing is large and itchy.
What are they and what are they good for?
The elbow length fingerless gloves from Leg Avenue are an accessory to complete any lingerie set or costume. They would match well to almost any set and are available in black or white, you can also purchase gloves in different styles as well.

Material
These gloves are made of 90% Nylon and 10% spandex; this is a delicate lace like material. It has a large lotus flower pattern too it. They are fairly itchy, but a majority of the material is loose, so it is itchy in certain places. This material has more of the rough lace feel to it. Since the material is so delicate the only way to wash it is by hand and then allows it to drip dry and never bleach these.
Design
There is a difference in the gloves, so they can not be worn on both hands. The difference is the thumb placement, if you put one on the wrong hand you would know right away. These total 13.5” long, to see where they would be on you just measure from the bottom knuckle of one of your fingers and up 13”. There is 4 fingers holes and one thumb hole. There is lace boarder around each finger hole and a seam that connects each of them together. There is a seam inside from the outer side of the pink hole all the way down. Then there 0.5” material folded down and stitched to make the so called ruffle, but this does not ruffle at all. The four finger placement width is 4” and the very end goes out to 4.5”; this is not the circumference it can handle. The thumb has a upside down tear drop shape seam to attach it to the bottom side, but off to the side.
Sizing
Lengthwise these ends up stopping about 2” from my elbow, which is about were a ¾ sleeve would start. On my fingers they are right at the second knuckle down, except for my thumb. The thumb is 4” from peak to top, but there is only about ¾” peaking out. My wrist is 6.5” around and these are baggy in the wrist area. My best guess is that it can handle about 9” at wrist point, but it goes up from there to fit snuggly on the upper forearm. This measures 10” for me and this fits snuggly, but this is what you want to help them stay on. The finger placement is a snug fit for me as well. I am going to give my ring sizes for each finger; here is a ring size chart to help with this.
Thumb-11
Pointer-8.5
Middle-9
Ring-8
Pinky-5.5
Overall the one size fits all is too large for me.
Overall and Rating
I am giving these 3 stars, while they are cute the size fails. I am not impressed and will not purchase any of the other gloves.

Experience
This just in, I have developed a rash from these. It is located on my forearm were the folded material is. So either these should be washed before wearing or I am allergic to the material, but I have never had this happen before from Nylon.
Follow-up commentary

I gave these gloves to my mom. I did not like them very much. I wish they weren't so baggy. I never bought any other pairs. But should Eden carry leather or wet look ones, they are going in my cart.
