Sizing Information
This NORU glove runs a bit snug as compared to other American brands we carry. I’d say this one runs only slightly small, so I’d advise you to choose the size you normally wear in gloves. If you are between sizes, then choose larger. Finger sizing is a bit slimmer than average so those with slender hands will probably like them. Those with shorter/thicker fingers may not.
Hopefully you’ve had some experience with buying gloves and can choose based upon the fit of a previous pair. If you have no previous experience with glove sizing, go here for help.
Our Two Cents
The Tekko glove from Noru is a short cuff, sport style glove that comes in three different colors. Coming in at the sub $60 price point these gloves are budget minded but still provide some features that are often seen on more expensive gloves, for example, perforated cowhide that provides abrasion resistance as well as airflow. Double layer palm sections for added abrasion resistance, double stitched sections, as well as thermo-set molded knuckle protectors that feature real carbon fiber. For additional performance the Tekko gloves from Noru also feature touchscreen compatibility that in testing worked well with both android and iPhone as well as a silicone print overlay at the palm for additional grip.
To aid in comfort the Tekko gloves also feature cool feel lining, molded finger vents with mesh inserts as well as an articulated knuckle design with Cordura stretch that helps prevent uncomfortable binding. Each finger also has accordion panels as well as an adjustable hook and loop enclosure to ensure proper fit. Speaking of fit, for me the size Large, the size I normally wear, was just a tad tight, not that it didn’t fit, but it just fit me a tad tighter than most other Large size gloves I am used to. I would say you can get your normal size, but if you are in between sizes go bigger.
Let’s be honest here, it’s a sub $60 glove, there are definitely better gloves out there, more expensive materials, more and better features and so on, but honestly for the price point you do get quite a bit. Personally I would spend a bit more to get gloves that have things like palm sliders and a bit more of a compact profile, but if you are trying to stay within a certain budget, at this price point the TEkko gloves from Noru are worth a look. :: Damir 6/4/24
