How A Cuff Should Fit: The easiest technique involves finding the "sweet spot" on your arm. This spot lies just above the jutting wrist bone, where the softer flesh of the lower arm begins. It is generally much narrower here than the wrist, even if it seems wider, because the flesh here is softer, more resilient, not just skin over bone and cartilage as in the joint itself. A cuff should be pushed over this spot, from the inside of the wrist, the cuff opening pointing away from the wearer, until the cuff rests against the inside of the arm. It should can be rolled over the arm's outer bone. If it can't be rolled comfortably, then the size is not suitable for the wearer's wrist. Resizing will be covered later, but for now, a well-fitting cuff will then slide down to rest against the turn of the hand at the bottom of the wrist joint with a little looseness for comfort, but with enough similarity in shape mirroring the wrist that it doesn't have the tendency to roll over. Measure a cuff from the inside with a tape measure from one end to the other. Generally speaking, a six inch long cuff will fit a 6-1/2" wrist. Measure your wrist directly over the wrist bone with a tape measure. This is your wrist size. Choosing a cuff that is about a half inch shorter than your wrist size will allow for enough gap between ends to slide it over your wrist, and you can adjust it to personally fit comfortably the first time without having to repeatedly bend the cuff out of shape each time you wear it, causing weakened and cracked areas.
