This study was performed to get basic data for gloves size system and pattern planning suitable Korean hand shape. Data was collected through measuring hand size of man and woman from age 18 to 30 as subjects living in metropolitan area. by analysing the measured data, the difference in man and woman and the gloves size system was established. The results of study are as follows: 1. The Deviation of hand girths and hand lengths was larger than that of hand width in both man group and woman group. In all items. deviation in man was larger than woman. 2. In sex difference, there was difference between mall group and woman group in all items. In age difference, there was difference between mall group and woman group in mainly girth and the difference was bigger in group under 24 years old than in group over 24 years old. 3. The weight showed the highest $correlation(r{geqq}0.8)$ with girths and high correlation with widths $(r{geqq}0.7).$ The height showed the highest positive $correlation(r{geqq}0.8)$ with and elbow length and high correlations with width and girths item. There were high positive correlation between vertical lengths in hand and between horizontal lengths but low correlation between vertical lengths and horizontal lengths. 4. The basic parts for gloves size system, hand lengths and hand girths were divided into 1cm interval. The results shouted that $91.0\%$ of man group were ranged from 18cm to 20cm section and $92.4\%$, of woman group were ranged from 16cm to 18cm section. 5. The interval which has the highest covet· rate was hand length 19cm and hand girth 20cm interval which covered $18.65\%$ of man group. The intervals which showed cover rate more than $5\%$ was total 7 and they covered $73.1\%$ of man group. The interval which has which has the highest cover rate was hand length 17cm and hand girth 17cm interval which covered $21.37\%$ of woman group. The intervals which showed cover rate more than $5\%$ was total 6 and they covered $72.5\%$ of total woman group.
