Excellent Product! Excellent Company!
I have been wearing these gloves everyday, all day since I received them and they have been helping a lot. I am 68 years old, and have arthritis in my hands something horrible. I do a lot of work at the computer, and a lot of craft work with my hands. My hands were always sore, especially the base of my thumb. The gloves are helping to reduce the pain.I ordered the medium gloves and they are snug, but not tight. I had the feeling that a tighter glove would create more compression and more relief, so I contacted the company and asked them about it. They responded immediately and said they are sending me a pair of small gloves to try out.With all the hand washing I have to do nowadays, I take the gloves off a number of times each day. I was concerned about ripping the seams, because that was a complaint I noticed about one of the other brands Amazon sells. I have already washed these gloves twice and the seams are as tight as the day I received them.The gloves came with a $5 rebate and a coupon for 30% off a future purchase, which I am looking forward to making this an even better deal than the original low price.I highly recommend buying these gloves. I am very impressed with the product and the integrity of the company.

Comfortable and therapeutic
I have very arthritic fingers and had been sleeping in the Doctor Arthritis gray compression gloves for quite some time. They really keep my hands from being so stuff and achy especially in the morning when I first get up. But those gloves weren't suitable for driving because they didn't have any grip strips and my hand slid on the wheel. These Copper Compression gloves are perfect for driving. They are very stretchy and comfortable while still snug enough to provide tge compression to help with the arthritis. I love that these, as well as the Grey cotton compression gloves, have open fingertips so I can still use the touch screens on my phone and computer.The Doctor Arthritis company has the best customer support I've ever seen. They respond immediately to any question or complaint. I just can't say enough about what a pleasure they have been to deal with on my several purchases from them. They offer well made products at a good price and they bend over backwards to please their customers.

Excellent pain relief but seams are a weak point.
They are very nice relief and provide excellent compression. But as shown first time putting on the left glove and the seam split. I suspect it is because I straddle the line between M and L. In general when I go L I don't get enough compression with compression gloves and if I go M any weak point that exists is put under a fair bit of strain.At the moment this is a tentative review, the right glove is the one I really need anyways and to be fair my left hand is slightly larger than my right(which I find odd since I am right handed). So I my Left is probably a L and my Right is great with a M. If the right glove's seam fails as well I will update to a 4* to qualify that they have a weakspot. IF the right holds up then I'll just assume it is because I straddle the point between M and L and that since my left is larger that that was due to a sizing issue.With further time the right glove has ended up with numerous tears. Reviews of similar products seem to indicate this is a standard issue with compression gloves. Still great relief while they last, but if you have had issues with other brands splitting at the seams before these will likely do that same.

Not as pictured.
This is my second pair of Dr. Arthritis copper gloves. The picture of these show that they come to above the middle joint of the fingers. My first pair does but these come below the middle joint of the fingers. This large also seems very tight. Very disappointed with my purchase this time. I will try another brand next time.

Great gloves,.. one major complaint.
[Edit/ Update]:Despite being overall satisfied / happy with the product -- The customer service for this company is second to none. They immediately responded willing to refund my money (now 6+ months later). I refused a refund as I wear these gloves and think they are a great product. However, they asked if I'd like a complimentary pair of these gloves in the version without fingertips to address my 1 complaint (isn't capacitive (doesn't work with phone)).I said sure,.. and I'll leave my thoughts on these in regards to the reason I use these gloves in the first place (Raynaud's Syndrome) and how fingertip removed gloves work (or don't) in a condition where the blood supply shuts off to your extremities. Again, this is a quality company.[Start Review]:I'd buy these gloves a million times over. Inexpensive and , so far, they've held up to much use and abuse. I've had them a better part of a year and I honestly didn't expect them to not wear out with daily use.These are extremely thin gloves,.. but in a great way - They don't feel constricting, in fact I'm typing at nearly my regular rate of speed (100-120 wpm [Yeah I type fast... but often slow it down to 80 or so casually). Point is the fingers are moving at the rate of my brain thinking and these gloves don't slow this down MUCH. It's more than acceptable.Now my biggest complaint -- For me, they aren't capacitive. Meaning they don't work with my phone. I didn't expect to really easily 'text' but unlock my phone and press basic buttons.. yes. It shows "Katie" texting her friends with these... I don't believe they are made with capacitive material but if they are it's not well done.Lastly, I bought these because they advertise Raynaud's relief. I have severe Raynauds (Fingers, Feet, ears, nose, any part possibly effected is..) So I wear these gloves all the time as even just the AC blowing will create massive discomfort and my arteries constrict 90% of the day so my fingers/hands are literally ice cold and painful. They help, but definitely don't keep them warm. But you must remember, if you have Raynaud's it is cold cause by blood vessel vasoconstriction/dilation dysfunction. Specifically the arteries constrict (get smaller or close) leading to the fingers primarily which causes the fingers to turn white (like a corpse cause no blood is reaching them). Most people experience significantly lower blood flow .. ie: 10-30% of normal which creates very cold fingers.Point is external protection can only help so much with an internal blood flow issue. (The oxygenated blood is 98 degrees and keeps our fingers warm (and all of our body)). Gloves aren't going to dilate your blood vessels (or in general help with such issues) unless they are heated. Period.Still - I highly recommend purchasing them. Even if you don't have arthritis or raynaud's syndrome,.. these are very sheer/thin gloves that allow you to USE your hands for finer tasks but provide some level of protection from the elements/cold etc. They remind me of driving gloves but better. They have nice grip on the bottoms as well.
