Tips & Warnings

• There is no difference in mens and womans sizes.
• Half sizes will fall somewhere in between the whole numbers.
• Measure your finger later in the day since your fingers swell.
• If you are still unsure of your ring size go to the jewelry counter at your local discount retailer (ie K-Mart, Target or Walmart). They will size your finger without the pressure to buy that comes with going to a jewelry store.
