Arthritis Compression Gloves

On the first time I wore these gloves they felt fine. The second time I wore these gloves the thumb tore off. What I could feel from the first time was nice feeling though.

I was concerned with how small these looked when I took them out of the package (I ordered according to the sizing chart) but they fit perfectly! The fabric of these compression gloves is lovely and soft. The stitching all seems strong and all the seams lay flat so they won’t dig into your skin and cause irritation. The gloves were a bit hard to get on but that is probably because they’re brand new. My hand is just a smidgen over 3 inches wide at the knuckles so I ordered small and it was exactly the right size. The moment the glove was on, I felt almost instant relief from the pain in my knuckles and fingers. The gloves are designed with a left and right hand, rather than a interchangeable shape, which means that they fit properly around the thumb. I really like how the length of the fingers on the gloves comes up so high, providing extra warmth and comfort for the middle knuckle and a bit of the top knuckle too. Keeping the finger tips exposed means that I can type and pick things up without worry. Because the fabric is mostly cotton, it breathes well and doesn’t leave you with clammy hands. When needed, hand wash in cold water and air dry so that the elasticity doesn’t go out of them, and they won’t shrink.

With cold weather, I struggle to use my mouse and keyboard at times due to joint pain in my knuckles and wrist. Using these gloves enables me to use my computer comfortably again and I don’t need to keep taking anti-inflammatories.

I don't use the compression glove to work with, I use it to keep my fingers straight I can lay my hand down flat with the compression glove on I sleep with it on my hand. I wash it, by hand, and the next day, put it back on. I wear it everywhere and I don't care what people think or say about me Thank You

The glove provides compression that is at a comfortable level, not too much and not too little. I feel my joints are kept warmer, which aids in increasing circulation and reducing pain. I also find that I'm not as likely to hurt myself banging an inflamed knuckle into an object with the cushioning of the glove. The length extends about an inch past the wrist, which also helps the wrist. They wash up very well. While these gloves are very helpful in the wintertime, I use them in any season when my hands need some extra pampering.

The material is comfortable, light, soft and doesn't irritate my skin. The gloves are a nice length, too. They cover my wrist area and then some. I can feel the compression, but it's not at all restricting. I strongly recommend this product for anyone, regardless of age, who deals with arthritis, or other hand discomforts.

I love them, felt the pressure of relief once they were on. Make sure you don’t pull them when putting on. This is why some complaints of tearing. When you place on your hands, then push down between each finger then pull lightly over wrist.

Comfortable, warm and soothing to wear. Of course I love that my fingertips are exposed so I can use my phone and Ipad for texting or reading. I read a lot so it is nice that I can flip pages without having to take the glove off.

I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, and because of that, I have Osteoarthritis in my hands at 35 years of age. I'm a writer. I have been in support groups for a few years, and gotten tons of adaptive equipment recommendations... this was, by far, one of the best recommendations I have ever gotten! My fingers are long and narrow, with larger interphalangeal and metacarpophalangeal joints. I got the small. The compression is a bit tight over the palm itself, but perfect in the fingers, which is where I really need it for typing and fine motor coordination. I tried at least 4 other types of arthritic and/or compression gloves... save yourself... BUY THESE!

When I opened the package of the size small gloves I ordered per the measuring instructions on line I thought, "Oh my......these are much too small". And they were light weight stretchy things that didn't look impressive at all. Putting them on the first time is a bit challenging because they do go on "tight" and it takes some wiggling around to get your fingers in properly. WHY 5 STARS then? Here is why: My arthritic thumb and surrounding area of my right hand had been swollen and painful for several days - and the ache was radiating all the way up my arm to my shoulder. Capsaicin rubbing compounds hadn't helped. When these gloves arrived I pulled on the right glove and wore it for just an hour and a half. WOW, what a difference! They really do help. The swelling went way down, the arm and shoulder no longer hurt and even the thumb joint felt much better. I do not wear the gloves regularly. I now use them when I need them and they do make a big difference. I can wear the right glove (have not needed the left one at all to date) for almost 3 hours before the seams start to make my hand itch. That is more than enough time to help my problem. I recommend these gloves.

Gloves aren’t terribly constructed, though I fear the edges will frey with wear. According to the measurements, I fell on the edge of small and medium, but with small hands I ordered down. The gloves gave fair compression through the palms but were baggy loose around the wrists - where I need support bemost - and looked almost full fingered becuse the fingers were so long. Thankfully I could pass these along to my mother, because they weren’t what I needed nor expected.

I don't know if I can speak for these. I didn't buy them for arthritis. I had a severe hand pain and inflammation around the pinky side of my hand from excessive drawing on my graphic tablet. I thought these would help, but they ended up making the pain worse so I had to stop wearing them. I thought that maybe it'd help wrist pain that was acumulating, but I got the smallest size and althought it fit snug around the hand, it was still loose around the wrist. No straps or anything to tighten it either. Granted, I'm knows for my thin wrists So it's more so my body than the manufacturer. So, they didn't suit my purpose, but maybe they'll suit someone with an actual artheritis case?

After putting it on, a minutes later, i could feel the wrist joint thumb muscles claiming down (this will help me with workouts that required usage of the hands). I'm going to buy three more to keep on hand. Along with my detox formulae will be able to go a long way. I'm a 90% vegetarian & 95% organic consumer which keeps arthritis down (learned this from an elderly married couple i met when i was 45 & menopausing). They were in their early 70's, looked great, & had more energy than i. Hope this information helps others out there as it did for me.

I have small hands so the small size fits perfectly. They are quite snug at first but, after a few days of wear they relax a bit, still providing the slight compression yet easy to perform tasks in. The first pair I bought from another retailer and the stitching was poor in a couple seams but they still do the job. This pair seems to have no flaws. I've gotten many compliments from fellow employees and customers on my "cool gloves". Highly recommend.

My spouse recently had hand surgery and these gloves provided the extra compression he needed during recovery. They helped reduce post-op pain and facilitated his daily exercises by keeping his hand warm for better movement. The quality of construction is top-notch and the finger openings allow for ease-of-use when keyboarding or performing other tasks. I bought a pair for myself to use while walking the dog. They keep my hands warm, but don't limit motion. Great gloves if you don't have medical needs, too!

Oh my goodness...what a difference these have made for my arthritic/trigger finger hands. Just by wearing them during non-work hours, I have noticed tremendous relief. I did not have a need to return to my rheumatologist who recommended them :-) There were a bit tight at first but glad I stayed with my original size as they stretched out a tiny bit and became comfortable - a little pressure actually feels good and they keep my hands warm for good circulation. They are super soft and I cannot say enough about them. Able to wear them while sewing, too. BUY THEM WITH CONFIDENCE.
