1. The string method
Wrap a piece of string around the base of your finger. Mark where it overlaps. Measure the length in mm and compare to a ring size chart.
2. The paper strip method
Cut a thin strip of paper (~10mm wide). Wrap it around your finger, mark the overlap, measure in mm.
3. The existing ring method
Place a ring that fits well on a ruler. Measure the inside diameter in mm. 16mm = size 5.5, 17mm = size 6.5, 18mm = size 8.
4. Measure at the right time
Fingers swell in heat and shrink in cold. Measure in the afternoon at room temperature for the most accurate reading.
5. When in doubt, go slightly larger
A ring that is slightly too big can be worn with a ring adjuster. A ring that is too small cannot be worn at all.
