I wonder if you can say that in general. For me, most OTR gloves have fingers too short, for mine are quite long.
Looks like your hand is rather small and short-fingered.

Yes, that's the other case. I find most gloves to be for people with thicker fingers.

I have fairly longer slimmer fingers so most don't fit me. Oddly, vintage chamois gloves do.

I ended up buying a pair of the collab Hestra X Norse Projects Staale gloves. I got it with free shipping to USA

Black leather and its sheepskin lined. Hestra gloves standard line is made in China. I wonder about the quality of the collab. For $100, it was hard to beat. Hestra is a Swedish glove maker, has been around since 1936.

There are many brands and many sizes so you should be able to find something that fits perfectly in the style you want. So unless you have a really freaky looking or tiny kid's hand there's no reason to have gloves made.
