Sparthos Wrist Support Sleeves (Pair) – Medical Compression for Carpal Tunnel and Wrist Pain Relief – Wrist Brace for Men and Women – Made from Innovative Breathable Elastic Blend

These have been perfect daytime answer to a carpal tunnel flare (I use a stiffer brace at night). I can comfortably knit, & type in them. They wash & wear like a dream.

I have to say I was skeptical about these compression gloves at first, but I read the reviews and decided to give them a try. I went by the size guide, but the fit was still small on me. I took the advice of another review by Kaleigh to dampen them and use a glass to stretch them out a little bit and that worked well for me. I also did the thumbs because they were tugging tightly. Also, I stitched up the thumbs to where it was more comfortable, and it also gave more support for my thumbs. I am leaving this review after using these gloves for over a year. They still work nicely. I will be purchasing more for myself and my son. I will make sure to order the next size up for myself, so the fit is better for me. I recommend these compression gloves for anyone that needs support in their wrist and hand.

Lighter weight support for wrist pain.

I’m on the fence about these. I have some wrist pain from too much pandemic office work and a hobby of playing video games. I first bought the pink in medium based on measurement but found they were a bit uncomfortable especially toward the forearm as I’m a bit bigger sized - though it was comfortable on the wrist and hand. I also noticed in this set that the elastic strings were detaching from the thumb area and pulling out. I thought this was maybe from being stretched or being a little rough pulling it on or off.So I decided to buy the large size (black this time as the pink showed regular daily grime too much). The fit was very comfortable - slightly loose across the palm but otherwise comfortable and a nice level of mild support. The thumb area fits nice too on the bigger size. It does seem to help some with repetitive wrist discomfort but I wouldn’t say it does anything amazing.My two biggest issues are 1) the type of fabric it is causes little “nubbies” (or fabric pilling…however you want to say it) to form, especially across the palm which has the most friction in daily life. It’s just makes it look not so nice. And 2) even though the size is appropriate and I take it on and off carefully I’ve still had the inner electric strings pull loose from the thumb area.So overall not a terrible product but not perfect either. I think the benefit for wrist pain is going to be different for every person and dependent on what the issue is with the wrist and what they do daily.

The Sparthos wrist support really does double duty. It supports both wrist and hand. It's exactly what I've been looking for for the past two years. I tend and water plants in a large garden center. It's hard on the hands, working with heavy duty rubber hoses -- unwrapping the hose, straightening it, twisting kinks out, moving and adjusting the hose while watering benches of plants and holding the hose overhead to water hanging baskets. I need more support than a typical fingerless compression glove provides. The Sparthos wrist support fits snugly on the wrist and around the palm of the hand, The extra support for the hand makes doing my job more comfortable and secure.I sprained my hand a few weeks ago and began looking for some sort of support to wear as it healed. Although described as a wrist support, the Sparthos support also supports the palm and knuckle joints of the hand. My hand has healed, but I'm continuing to wear the Sparthos sleeve for routine support for my hands as I work.

I needed this when I had carpal tunnel and it helped a lot when working out at the gym

To start off- I have been buying these braces for a year, I have carpal tunnel syndrome and they’ve been a great help. However. I have had to buy 6 pairs in 1 year, because of their quality. I have had to buy them at a higher frequency because they’re breaking faster. My first pair lasted me about 5 months before it wore down to the point of doing little of anything. IWore braces 24/7 until this august when I went to wearing them only 15ish hours of the day. They only come off when they could get messy. Unfortunately, as the years have gone by the quality of this product has gone downhill. Now it is at the point where the pair I just bought had broken on the 1st wear & progressively getting worse over the week. I went back to an older worn down pair for a while because of it. Previously the wear and tear was just it loosening over time & the outside becoming fuzzy, now it is elastics breaking. I am doing the same things with these as I did my previous ones, and these have been worn SIGNIFICANTLY less, and they are breaking in a way the others never did. Until the most recent pair, I have never had an elastic break. I have put so much money into these braces and I feel so pained that my favorite & only working brand has tanked in quality such.I have tried other brands but none could compare with this one, until now. My first pair is still the best working one I have. It was so great I bought 2 more pairs a month later. These 2 were so much worse than the first. Breaking faster, not as tight, way more uncomfortable, painful even. I bought another pair 6 months later and it still wasn’t great. But there wasn’t better on market so I still came back 3 more times. Until this time, in which the last medium I got was way too loose in the places it mattered and too right in the others. so I bought a small along with this medium & I’ve not used it much.It worked/works best to date, lasted the longest, and what has pushed me to wearing this brand over all else, it was 12$ when I got it September of 2022. . Hell, it has frayed less than the brand new ones & it survived my ceramics phase. When I got a second/third pair in November of 2022 the manufacturer had changed (I could tell because the ends were sealed differently. Previously it was a piece of fabric sewn over the edges, now it is sealed with thread.) and the quality has gone downwards so far with the prices only going up. (I understand inflation is fault of the price uptake, but it doesn’t explain the substantial quality decrease for the higher price.)I know the issues I have had with these are not that of user error, I am quite abusive to the things that I wear, as I am an artist and work in many different trades for such, but my old pairs can handle so much more than my new ones. I tried washing a pair with my hands & tried 1 in the machine, both wore down the same as one I tried to not wash.I used to love this brand but now? I can’t continue purchasing from them if their quality is going to continue this rapid ruin.

Five stars for how they look. If your hand is a normal size, this would work well because it’s pretty snug. I am giving it 4 stars because it’s a little too snug for me to the point that the crook of my hand between my thumb and index finger got all red and irritated. I had to cut out some of the fabric around the area and now it looks janky.
