TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I am aware of their website. I am not sure how to respond to a vendor
who says they last updated their website in 2001! Seems a wee bit out of
touch.
And that method of measuring one's hands for gloves, especially of the
fingerless variety, feels totally off the wall. Fingerless gloves can be
a full size or two smaller than their fingered counterparts.

Subject: Looking for Handeze gloves?
Craig Cardimon wondered: <<I'm looking for Handeze fingerless support
gloves. Mostly because my hands and fingers are cold at work. Air
conditioning for the computers and all.>>
Try their Web site: <http://handeze.com/> My recollection is that
they were slow to respond to e-mail, but did eventually reply. You
might be able to find a local distributor.
The "sizing chart" (https://www.certifiedsecuresites.com/handeze/
order.htm) is an interesting exercise in technical communication. I
find myself wondering how many people hold their hands up to the
monitor <grin> to pick the right glove size and then end up with
gloves that are way too large.
