Imak - Compression Arthritis Gloves for Pain & Stiffness of Hands, One Pair of 2 Gloves - Black, Medium

I wear them at night to keep my hands warm and improve my circulation. My hands feel better in the morning after I’ve worn them.

The range of motion was great and comfortable but after wearing for a few hours, when i removed them I felt as though I had gravel in my joints.

The fingers are a little on the long side for needle work. Also, these can NOT be returned so measure carefully and get the proper size the first time.,

I want to say that these gloves are something I use every day and I'm suspected to have hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and they do the job well. One thing to note is if youre super sensitive to textures like I am these gloves will become a bit annoying. I had to cut out the tags on the inside because it was so itchy and i was not a fan of how it felt. now that its cut out its a lot better. Also, when washing it be sure to keep it cold and hand wash only. You should wash them fairly often especially if its for daily use like myself.

I read a lot at night, and because I am arthritic, I usually read digital review copies off of a tablet. However, even the tablet is too heavy sometimes, and my thumb gets sore from tapping to turn the pages. I purchased these to wear when I read, and am fairly satisfied.Here are the drawbacks of these gloves:*Not washable*Pinky is too long*Thumb is too short*The seam at the thumb on the inside leaves a ridge and makes me sore*Attracts lint and pet hair like a magnet*Chafes my skinThat said, I still consider it a good purchase. As far as I can tell, no one else out there makes washable compression gloves either. This means, of course, that I cannot wear them to do food prep, use cleaning products, eat, or apply cosmetics. It became clear right away that I couldn't figure to wear these all day. However, the period after supper clean-up and before I go to sleep is the time I like to read, and it's also the time my fingers are the most swollen. I use these gloves when I read for an hour or two every night, and it makes enough of a difference in my evening to be worth it.I considered attempting to turn them inside out so that the thumb ridge will be on the outside--less attractive, but I am not going anywhere in them, and it might alleviate the line on my hand where the thumb seam occurs. I have news: if you are nimble enough to turn these things inside out, you probably do not have arthritic fingers. I couldn't do it, and it took some doing to get them right side out once I had partially turned them inside out. Don't try it, unless you have someone available to help you.The good news is that the main part of the glove and the four fingers are not separated by seams, so the thumb is the only place that leaves lines on your flesh..Sooner or later technology will improve these things, as it does with almost everything, but until then, I recommend these gloves to arthritics to use at times when they don't have to do any of the things mentioned above.

IMAK offers another item that I find better than this one. The sleeve for your fingers can almost cover your fingers which is not good if you need to type efficiently. The glove is a bit on the thin side as well. The other aspect is that there is no wrist guard support so it falls down in this aspect. You have to train your hand to be lifted as the other item has a bean bag support that you can rely on.

After trying several brands, this one is the winner! I actually ordered a size up because I was close to the next size. I am so glad I did. They give me the compression and joint warmth without being super tight. I can wear them all night.

Not for me

It does helps the hand. It keeps the hand warm enough while having it out in the cold. They are comfortable enough to wear while playing games. They are very light and thin. Looks okay. Got the medium size, fit just fine, however the length of the finger parts of the gloves are too long for me; they cover up to just below the nails other than the thumb. So if anyone is interested in buying this, I do recommend it but watch out not only for the size of your hand but length of fingers as well so it fits nicely to play games or do other activities without distribution.

Only had these a week but not sure I am getting any benefit from them. I can't see why they are so expensive, they just feel like cotton.

time will tell but at the moment very pleased with gloves

Fabric no different to a pair of cotton gloves - no compression strength. And NO RETURNS!! At £24 a complete rip off!!!

A little more expensive than other ones, but they are very comfortable, and the size chart is more accurate than others. Worth the extra money that you have to pay
