Thumb Tip To Crotch

The distance from the tip of the thumb to the crotch.

ThumbTipToCrotch

How to measure

Application

Used in glove design to size the thumb section independently, ensuring correct thumb length and web space proportions.

Posture

Hand flat, thumb extended naturally to the side.

Landmark

Measured from the tip of the thumb to the webbed junction between the thumb and index finger (thumb crotch).

Tool

Rigid ruler or digital caliper.

Common mistake

Measuring to the base of the thumb rather than the web junction gives a longer and incorrect result.
