Velpeau Elastic Thumb Support Brace Liner (Pack of 2), Splashproof Thumb Wrist Compression Sleeve for Arthritis Pain, Tendonitis, Sprains, Sports, Fits Left & Right Hands (Black, Short Version, S)

First, I own several products from this brand; all thumb supports. I was referred to Amazon by an orthopedic surgeon due to the cost versus getting them thru insurance. Everything I’ve ordered has exceeded my expectations for the most part (quality of Velcro varies with all companies, in general). That being said, the fit is very comfortable & provides good compression for daily use without being annoying. I got these specifically for the thinner wrist support & chose Medium for better compression. I can even wear thumb rings while wearing these sleeves. Definitely recommend & will be buying more for replacements, as I wear these daily due to due arthritis & De Quervain’s Syndrome.

I also use a CMC Joint Thumb Brace especially at work, but most of the time I just Velpeau Elastic Thumb Support. It will not support your thumb like the brace but gives my thumb just enough support for when I am not using my hand too much.

When I first pulled one sleeve out of the box I thought I would be sending it back right away but:1. It provides light compression to my thumb and wrist.2. It is smooth on the hand and very lightweight. Very lightweight.3. I was able to wear the sleeves under my garden gloves without any restriction of movement or excessive sweating.4. They wash, by hand, very easily and dry quickly without loss of stretch.Time will tell how durable it will be but at this point in time it is a good product, and I will probably get another pair as backup.

I ordered a size M, as that’s the size I usually wear in gym and other gloves, but it turned out too big. It doesn’t provide the snug fit needed for proper relief and compression.

Very very thin and NO support but will keep them because they work under my brace to keep it from rubbing. I found another comfortable supporting brace. And another website.

These fit really well around my wrist where I broke it. It has the perfect amount of support, not too tight. You can get them wet and they dry fairly quickly and they wash up well. Thumbs up five times.

I was not happy with this product. It didn’t give me any support. It barely hugged my wrist and thumb.

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.
