    About

    As an American born Chinese, I created the "Descendants of the Dragon Armor Ring" as a nod to my Chinese heritage, to honor my best friends who are the biggest heroes and fighters in my life, and to call on people to find their inner dragon (and the good dragon within others) to build stronger bridges together. Please read the full backstory and research HERE.

    Sizing

    Please understand that the fit will vary since our hands are all very different. If you're looking for a perfect fit for your fingers, you will need to request custom made rings, which will be a different cost.

    When determining your size, keep in mind that your finger size can expand and shrink due to temperature change, eating certain foods, and doing certain activities with your hands. When it comes to temperature change, your fingers are typically bigger in the morning or when you're hot. On the other hand, your fingers shrink when you are cold. So be sure to measure your ring size in a few situations to help you pick your size.

    How to measure your finger to pick the right armor ring (2-part):

    1. Look at the ring lengths below and look for the length on your measuring tape
    2. Starting at the base of your finger, place the measuring tape with the ring length (from the chart below) on the top or the side of your finger
      1. It may help to place a plain ring or elastic on the base of your finger to help guide you



    EXAMPLE
    : My index finger is usually a "US 6." But when it's cold, my index finger can drop to a "US 5." And when it's hot or my fingers are swollen my index finger can go up to a "US 7." I prefer a US 7 because it gives me just a little more room to flex my finger joints, and I'd rather tighten it to a smaller size rather than expand the ring bands too much. Above, you can see that both my index and middle finger fit a "US 7" 3-part armor ring and are adjusted to the shortest ring length (on my index finger) and the longest ring length (on my middle finger).
