Size Guide & Materials
At Blackfox, all of our earrings are crafted from premium titanium — lightweight, hypoallergenic, and built for everyday comfort. Use this guide to understand how our sizing works so you can choose the perfect fit for your ear shape and style.
📏 Earrings Size Guide
Earring sizing can feel confusing, especially when small differences make a big impact on how a piece fits. Below is a simple breakdown of how our inner diameters translate into wearing style.
🌀 Under 9mm Inner Diameter — Cartilage Fit
Earrings smaller than 9mm sit very close to the skin.
They’re ideal for:
-
cartilage piercings
-
helix piercings
-
upper ear styling
-
tight, minimal looks
These sizes hug the ear securely without extra space, giving a clean, sleek, modern aesthetic — perfect for ear stacks.
Best for: cartilage, second/third lobe, layered minimalist looks.
🟢 9mm–11mm Inner Diameter — Classic Huggie Fit
This is the most common “huggie” size range.
These earrings sit snugly around the earlobe with just enough clearance for comfortable everyday wear.
Expect a close fit that:
-
follows the natural curve of your lobe
-
feels secure and lightweight
-
looks clean, subtle, and polished
Best for: first or second lobe piercings, everyday minimal style, unisex wear.
⭕ 11mm and Above — Hoop Fit With Space
Anything above 11mm begins to give more breathing room between the hoop and the lobe.
These sizes offer:
-
a more noticeable hoop look
-
extra space for movement
-
a bolder silhouette
-
a modern, unisex statement
The larger the diameter, the more open and airy the look becomes.
Best for: anyone who prefers a visible hoop, bold styling, or modern minimalist edge.
