IMAK Compression Arthritis Gloves - Fingerless, Support for Joint Pain & Circulation, Unisex, Compression Gloves

I have arthritis in my hand and sustained an injury that takes a long time to heal. I needed compression support, especially at night. I couldn’t find support gloves that were small enough and supportive until I discovered these. I can get a good nights sleep without my swollen throbbing hand, waking me up thanks to these compression support gloves.

I broke my wrist and six weeks after surgery, there is still some swelling. My occupational therapist suggested I purchase this glove to help that issue. My wrist feels better when I wear the glove, but I don’t know if there are significant decreases in swelling. I think this is just a long process of recovery.

This is not my first pair of these gloves, I have two black, two grey. So why would I go for a 4/5? Because my most recent one after only wearing four times had all these holes in the right hand! I can’t figure it out! It’s just the right hand, and on both sides. There’s no explainable reason. I keep the gloves safely stored away. Especially because I’m always loosing my things. So the more organized I can remain, the better I am at not loosing it all. So the holes, a mystery and a bit annoying because quality overall with Imak has been outstanding.These are the brand of gloves that my occupational hand therapist suggests I have. I’ve had two different doctors now, and BOTH LIVE and DIE by this brand when it comes to compression gloves. I have OTHER brands, and showed her. I had different copper ones, I PERSONALLY didn’t like them. They’re too thin, but seams are irritating me, but not in the places you’d think. It’s where they cut off on my fingers because it’s just so awkward to have gloves cut off before your first knuckle, and then cut INTO the skin there. So, stopped wearing those ones. I have a pair of Vive that I was loving. But when she had me compare the compression of the Imak to Vive, I was amazed. I THOUGHT I was getting a compression fit on my Vive pair I had. But no, these Imak gloves are more snug around your hands in fingers WITHOUT feeling as though they’re going to cut off the circulation like the copper brand gloves. It compresses your hands in such a snug enough way that you have that feeling of a hug, without it feeling like a bear hug. I mean, they have a stronger compression strength then all the brands I have, BUT the material, the quality, the feel. It doesn’t FEEL that much different. EXECPT for when you have tendonitis like me, having that compression in those important areas all of a sudden, and everywhere ELSE just feel like a NORMAL feeling stretchy glove. THAT’S important. I can just WEAR them and DO my hand exercises of opening and closing my fingers because there’s resistance in JUST that act. But not SO MUCH that you have to FIGHT against it, but where first thing in the morning you’re waking up and there’s that early morning fatigue in your fingers/ hands, and that resistance is JUST what you need to do that stretching in the morning.Would I recommend Imak, I HAVE! I’ve been reaching out to OTHERS I know who have hand issues and letting THEM know that THESE are the gloves to have! That they are BACKED by professionals, and WORTH every penny! I have gone and gotten their wrist mouse pad to rest my wrist on when I’m using my stylist. And need that small support for my elbow or wrist. I really find that they know how to help with the strains of the hands.

Much better than the cheap gloves on Amazon. Even pressure in the fingers, palms and wrists, I have two pairs.

I wear these gloves at night and during the day to prevent cramps in my fingers. They are comfortable, not bulky. They wash and dry well. Great for travel too. They are the perfect pair of fingerless gloves and help my hands feel better.

I measured and when I got these, they were too small for me to get my fingers in. If you have small hands, they might work for you: I couldn't really tell about the sensory feel of the seams.

good quality and support

Fit well. Stitching on fingers could be more sturdy as some begin to unravel.
