A fitting comparison to hand? (5)
I believe the answer is:
glove
'to hand?' is the definition.
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for glove that I've seen before include "On-hand children's entertainer?" , "hands warmer" , "Mitten" , "Proverbially good fitter" , "Noisy disturbance" .)
