Sizing Guide

Every curve of you is unique, including those in your fingers, that is why it is important to consider your knuckles when choosing the perfect ring size. If your knuckles are wider than the base of your fingers, then chances are your ring won't slide past your knuckle if you size your ring based on just the base of your finger alone. On the other hand, if your knuckles are smaller than the base of your fingers, then your ring can fall off if not snug enough. If your knuckles are wider than the base of your fingers, then you have knotted fingers.  

If you have knotted fingers, then it is best to measure your knuckle and the base of your finger and use the average of the two measurements to base your ring size. Your ring will end up being big enough to wiggle past your knuckle, but small enough to not slide off.

If your knuckles are smaller than the base of your fingers, then you have tapered fingers. If you have tapered fingers, you want your ring to fit tightly but not too tight that it creates a "muffin top" of skin around it.

If you plan to stack your rings, you should consider sizing up to prevent your skin from folding between rings. 

If the ring you are buying is thicker than 3.5mm, you should consider sizing up.

Just like in science class, you should measure your finger 3-4 times and calculate the average of these measurements. This is because the size of your finger varies with temperature, getting smaller in colder climates and larger in hotter climates.
