Fisher Science sells a brand called Hourglass Gloves in 2x small (I actually found them in a general internet search that hit on a "sugaring" website but looked through my normal science vendors and found it on Fisher Sci's site). It might be worth buying a box to try.

DCHAS,

I just received a question from a colleague who currently has a little person in his organic lab. They are having trouble finding chemical resistant gloves that fit properly. Extra smalls have fingers that are still too long. The professor has ordered some children's craft gloves made from LDPE to see if those work (compatibility will have to be looked at closely), but they may be too narrow across the palm. This little person is a chemistry major so they will be in lab courses for the foreseeable future. Any recommendations?
