You have ring size, width, and height. I would like to know which height I should choose for a ring. The options are:

  • 1 mm
  • 2 mm
  • 3 mm
  • 4 mm
  • 5 mm

I do not want the ring to hurt when putting it on and taking it off, but I also do not want the ring touching the other fingers too much. I have larger knuckles, so I want a ring with extremely rounded edges. However, the ring height should be big enough so that the rounded edges are comfortable enough for my big knuckles.

So, could anyone share their experience with ring height, when to choose which height in general situations, and which height to choose for myself?

    It is not about the ring size but about the height of the metal part. The circle opening in the ring is the ring size.

      that’ll be addressed during a proper sizing. what’s right for you is going to be mostly-unique to you.

      To expand on FuglyDuck’s comment, the reason it is unique to you is because it depends on the size of your knuckle relative to bone diameter near your hand.

      If you have thick knuckles but also thick bones/tissue then a thicker ring will hit the adjacent fingers and might be annoying.

      Try a bunch of rings of different thicknesses to find what is comfortable for you.
