Customer Reviews of Isotoner Therapeutic Gloves
Customer Review: Not Enough
Summary: 2 Stars
First, the mail order company sent these quickly, no problem with them.
I looked around at several sites for information on this product. You can get better pricing if you do your research. Most sites have some sizing info but not enough and not detailed. I do not have 'teeny' hands and have long fingers with a big palm. Ring size is 6 1/2. I measured and came up with a 'medium' recommendation, picked a size smaller (small), and was still disappointed in the fit - too loose fitting to be of help.
I am an active person. I sew, garden, and work clay handbuilding, although my knuckles can get swollen, mostly they just hurt after hard work. My hands are not at the stage where fingers are twisted or really swollen. I wanted something to aid and support when I am working to manage swelling. Decided to get the 'real' thing with support gloves. The 'small' size is still not a good fit. They have a 'little' squeeze to them but not enough to actually be helpful and supportive to the muscle when you are doing a great deal of handwork (sewing, gardening).
The open tips might be nice for finger work but if they slip down too far to be of help to upper knuckles its no good. Mind you, I'm not looking for something that makes my fingers go red because of closed off circulation! But if they slip down into the finger wells they aren't much use. The material itself is thin enough for comfort. I'm typing with them on right now.
I sewed the seams tighter and that helped a 'bit'. I may try other brands but this is just not enough support for me.
Customer Review: Isontoner Therapeutic Gloves
Summary: 5 Stars
Best of the ones I've tried. Outside seams cause less irritation to the hand and the gloves offer firm support to both the hand and the fingers. Don't be afraid to purchase if you need the support for only one hand. The special way the gloves are seamed means that both gloves can be used for just one hand, as in carpal tunnel syndrome.Customer Review: Isotoner Therapeutic Gloves great for after hand surgery!
Summary: 5 Stars
These gloves are great to wear if you have arthritis in your wrist, hand, or thumb and are a wonderful support following hand surgery. Almost all other writst/thumb support devices have seams that press against the tender surgery areas, but these have the seams on the outside of the glove rather than on the inside so tender areas stay protected! The gloves are machine washable and very easy to use. Plus they feel great!
