Velpeau 2Pcs Elastic Thumb Wrist Brace, Splint Liner for Women & Men, L

I originally read this as a soft brace itself- which it is not. It is not supportive or bracing in the least. But as a liner, it's perfect! It helps a GREAT deal when wearing an unlined brace, which most of mine are. Ah, the relief from that pinching velcro closure! You get two, and I have lost one, but I use the heck out of that one and I am probably going to buy more. Be warned that the flesh tone color stains/dirties easily and does not wash out as I hoped it would. So don't cut tomatoes with this on alone, it will stain. (That sounds like a "d'uh!" thing but this liner is so comfy I forget I have it on or just get too lazy to take it off. It has a nice feel!) Also, I have no idea how it is waterproof- I'd say it is not. I'm not sure what that claim even means in conjunction with this. I mean, if you get it wet, it's wet. But never mind that, it does everything else super well, is very comfortable, and makes life better if you wear a brace. Amen.

I had a laceration injury on the side of my hand just above the thumb, and the urgent care used an ace bandage to hold the dressing in place. This worked fine for a day while resting, but at work it moved around and wasn't working for me. Saw this support and ordered it and it worked perfectly to hold the dressing in place and as a bonus to help the swelling. There was 2 in the pack, which meant that when one got dirty I could change over to the other one while I washed the first one and let it dry . I washed it with a nail brush and some soft soap and it came up like new and dried perfectly. I had no allergic reaction to it, and no irritation. Its not particularly supportive, but it's perfect to hold a dressing in place and protect it from dirt and water.

They might fit an infant but not an adult. Threw mine in the trash.

It’s comfortable, just enough pressure, to help with my tendinitis.

Sizing is weird. Medium was so tight I couldn’t get it on. Large was so loose, it was ineffective

Following joint replacement surgery on base of thumb 3 months ago, I was still transitioning from bulky splints. But I still needed some gentle support and some compression to keep swelling down. This is working perfectly for this purpose, and support splint use is almost eliminated. What is really nice is that the sleek profile means I can just slip the splint over it for temporary extra support. This is a well made product. The only issue is determining size needed. My hands usually need a men’s large for gloves. But if I want a tight fit, I buy mediums. I bought size medium and guessed right. It was a tight fit, but support and compression were perfect.

I have arthritis in my lower thumb joint. I got a cortisone shot but it now acts up just a bit, intermittently. This reminds me to take it easy when using it so it doesn't cause me pain. I also have fragile skin on the part of my hand the "brace" covers. It helps the skin stay injury free. It's a very light "brace" so wouldn't do much if you needed a brace that would immobilize your thumb area.

Exactly what we needed and works great . Well worth the cost.
