The only time I had a pair of gloves that fit was back in the days
after the pill and before herpes.  I had a pair of gloves made by an
Austrian woman who had a small room in a building full of clothing sub-
contractors and bright young things creating a label on daddy's money
or a loan from the boyfriend.  She made me a pair of motorcycle gloves
which were really a pair of winter riding gloves as worn by the Heavy
Cavalry in Austria.  They really did fit like a glove as she explained
to me, between reminiscinces about life in Vienna when she wore the
Emperor's badge, the human body is not symmetrical and your hands are
different sizes to each other let alone anyone else's hands.  When it
comes to "off the shelf" gloves, the best you can hope for is a rough
approximation.  Personally, I shop for gloves from german suppliers
which fit on the thumb and first two fingers but the other two
especially the little finger are too long.
