EvoShield Protective Thumb Guard, Hourglass Thumb Guard, 4.25" x 3.25", Small

Seems to be working really well. My son has started getting serious about catching and is getting all his gear together. In one practice he mentioned getting "thumbed." I had no idea this was a thing. We went online and found this setup. Instructions were clear and getting it to form to his thumb worked great. He says it makes closing the glove easier also.

We tried many other options to protect her thumb before purchasing this. Our next step was a very expensive custom molded guard if this didn't work, so I am happy it works perfectly. She has been using it now for 6 months with zero thumb issues. It slightly rubbed her thumb area so we used a small piece of KT tape between her skin and guard and worked like a charm.

This helped my daughter but it was hard to fit in her glove

The item was already almost completely hardened when we tried to mold it, which made it difficult to bend or shape. The final result was uncomfortable and lumpy. We were not able to use it at all.

I bought it after my son hurt his finger at his baseball game & he said it works great at fast pitches when he’s catching

My son is new to catching. He was having a hard time with the correct positioning of his glove when catching and taking a lot of contact to the thumb area. I like the idea but the end result wasn't so great. The directions provided are clear and it was easy to do the molding but the final product was so stiff like a cast that it was too uncomfortable for my son to wear. Sadly it was a waste of money since you can't return the item. Be careful when ordering. Make sure you measure and order the correct size. You can not return this item even if unopened.

A great product to protect young catchers from thumb injuries when catching the ball. I definitely recommend it.

Instructions on how to prepare for use are lacking. The product is like a gel that hardens after molding
