I have some numbness in my ring finger and pinky finger after a box cutter injury. Are these snug on the fingers? Thanks.

I ordered a pair using the online sizing guide. They fit like a normal glove, but did not provide the compression I wanted. They were not snug enough to provide any therapeutic comfort, but I gave them to my father (who previously liked them in a size larger) and he raved about how much more the smaller pair helped him. So if in doubt, I'd recommend ordering a size smaller than you normally take.

I use the 1/2 finger gloves... they provide excellent compression on the wrist, hand, up to the first joint of my fingers... Maybe order a size smaller than you think you need? If you only need one glove, turn the other one inside out and you will have two of the same hand.Good luck! They also make them in "full finger" versions.Morgan.

Yes they can be. I used my gloves basically for the repetitive injury I had following an overuse injury while trying to learn to type faster. It increased the circulation and along with a couple of cortisone shots healed the injury. Please see your doctor first.

They are snug but not to the level of being tight. My fingers often swell because of arthritis and these gloves seem to help with that.

They fit very snug. This past winter when seeping with them on I found them a great comfort. I especially like the left one, being a knitter with an arthritic thumb and fore finger it keeps them somewhat stable. I think you will like them. Hope this has helped you.

I also have small hands. I have tried other ratcheting pruner and didn't care for them. My husband bought these for me to try. I love them. I use them all the time. I am able to cut through a lot of different things and best of all does not cause pain in my hand. I bought several more as making wreaths last Christmas, everyone kept borrowing mine.

Yes, I think so. The problem is they are so tight that they cut off blood flow to my hands and put them to sleep. I don't use mine for this reason.

I think the mani protectors worked really well but found them a bit snug, so smaller fingers should be quite happy with them. Haven't used the shoes yet but I'm sure they'll fit you just fine.

Absolutely. They fit snug, I don't really want loose gloves. They have a lot of friction and recover very quickly if they get dirt or water on them. Would definitely buy them again.

Your gloves may be too tight if they are causing tingling after you remove them. I have never had a problem with tingling fingers after removing my gloves. But I would check with a doctor sense this could also be an early symptom of diabetes and arthritis.

Joe, I generally wear a small or medium glove depending on the style and manufacturer. Wrapping a tape around my knuckles reads about 8-1/4". I found the gloves comfortable except for the trigger finger which was a little tight. I bought them thinking they'd give me a little more dexterity so I wouldn't have to take them off to pick up small objects. They're a little cumbersome as the ends of the mitten part are squared off rather than rounded. Hope that answers your question. If not, get back to me. I'm not sure I'd buy them again, but I wouldn't return them as they're kind of cool.

No, I have no soreness after using them. Mi twirl them in my fingers before putting them in place. The foam expands to fit the canal, but it is light. I've never had the problem that you describe.

Hello Lisa,I like them. They are comfortable and cushy. My only problem however (and this may be because I am a novice at boxing) is that the exposed fingertips start to hurt after successive punches. So I put the generic mitten style gloves that came with my punching bag over these gloves and it protects my fingertips. Great support on my wrists and good cushioning for the knuckles but the fingertips - not so much. They are also girly cute. Lol. Hope this helps.

I tape my knuckles and use wraps. These gloves were great for a while but something changed inside my right glove and now my pinky & ring knuckle get bruised even with tape and wraps under the gloves. Ultimately, it depends on how big your hands are, and how well they fit inside the gloves. I have very small hands.

I would say they are too bulky. My sister has different gloves, I think they are title weighted gloves. Hers are less bulky and may work but I don't think any of these weighted gloves are meant to wear inside real boxing gloves.

Hello Ella,The Oval Splints can be used for the index finger, the sizes correspond to but are not an exact match to U.S. jewelers ring sizes. You will have to measure the part of the index finger to know the correct size you need. Please let us know if you have any further questions.Thank you,DeniseProMed XpressCustomer Service

I would say it helps more then relieve pain. They will help prevent pain when you start using them when you are not feeling pain in fingers.

I'd say they're unisex. I am a woman, but have sort of larger hands (middle finger is 4" and have biggish palms) and they work great for me. I think if you have smaller hands, then they'd still be fine but the fingerless bit could maybe cover more of your fingers than you like, maybe?

I am a female and my ring size is 6, small boned and at first the gloves are tight, but with continuous wear, they will stretch a bit. They are great for Arthritis and also for the cold weather. I sleep with them and I sleep like a baby. I live in Chicago and the weather has been very cold.Chela Huss
