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

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.

Super comfortable. I wear it daily. My thumb is supported, lightly and my wrist is healing nicely. It goes great under a stronger support too. I ordered a medium and it is perfect for a small wrist.

I've exchanged this product 3 times to get the right fit. I continued to exchange because the material was really good on the first 2 sizes I bought. Finally the third time it fit. However, this material is not the same. It is cheaply glued together. The first 2 was all one material and good quality as it's made to get wet. This pair will fall apart very quickly, and also gives no support. Attached is an image of the material. As you see it's glued together whereas the first 2 pair was all the same material with no seams. Waste of money, and now I need to find another product.

I use this brace all day every day for pain at the base of my thumb. I have an appointment to diagnose what is wrong, but in the meantime, this brace is comfortable, breathable, and lightweight. I originally bought it to wear cycling, but it's great for everyday. It doesn't take the pain away completely, but it helps keep my thumb stable and it is less likely to be irritated by movement of my hand. Not perfect, but it helps.

I love these, but the lighter colors are so hard to keep clean so I ordered the black ones as soon as I saw them. These are not the same. The thumb sleeve is much longer than my other ones and is very tight at the end. I have small hands and short fingers, but the thumb part seems to be the same size regardless of what size you order. I ordered a small and it fits the wrist perfectly, but it cut off the circulation in the top of my thumb and I had to cut it shorter. I was expecting the same light compression throughout, and was also expecting the thumb sleeve to be smaller since I ordered the smallest size available. I'm disappointed and hope they don't fall apart now.

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 was 1/4" into the large size measurement so according to the measurement instructions I ordered a large. The only problem I had was that the large was too loose so I returned it and ordered a medium size which ended up being a perfect fit. The material is very thin but has plenty if elasticity. Don't expect too much support but for a snug fit it is perfect. My advice is after measuring if you are not in the middle of the size range buy the smaller size. No smell, good elasticity, snug support, no allergic reaction, comfortable to wear while sleeping. All in all it's a pretty good product for my needs.

I bought a large size and it fits like a regular glove rather than a compression sleeve. I don't think if I got a small, it would make it fit any better honestly. Oh it fits comfortably but it doesn't provide any support. This doesn't seem any better than something I could've bought on Temu.
