How do I measure to figure out what size I need?

Use a flexible measuring tape and measure the circumference of the point on your finger that you want to wear the brace.

What colors do they come in?

Finger Grippers and Finger Friends current only come in black. 

How many braces are in a package?

Each package has two braces of the same kind and size.

How do I put them on?

Place your fingertip inside either end of the brace and gently pull the brace onto the finger.  When putting the Finger Grippers on with the textured side on the inside it does require a little more pulling to get the brace into place, however it is very secure and won’t move, which is the benefit of wearing the textured side on the inside.

Where do I position them on my finger?

Position the brace on your finger wherever you need the protection or support.  For some it is closer to the fingertip and for others it is all the way down on the finger.  The positioning may be different for each finger depending upon the activity and your individual needs.

Which finger do I wear it on?

The braces can be worn on any finger and every finger including the thumb.

How tight should they feel?

The finger brace should feel snug but not too tight.  If it restricts blood flow or the needed movement then it is too tight.  Wear it tight enough to provide the level of support and compression that is desired for your individual needs.

Why do I need a finger brace? What are the benefits?

The finger braces are to prevent injury, protect after injury, provide support to stabilize finger joints and provide pain relief from arthritis, trigger finger, finger surgery or finger injury.

Are you tired of using tape and band aids to protect your fingers from blisters/calluses/rub spots and abrasions only to have them fall off and leave a sticky mess on your fingers?

Is your glove not giving you the padding, protection and shock absorption that you need?

The finger braces provide support, padding, protection in the case of finger injury.

Would you like to improve your grip and not have to worry about your grip in the rain?  Finger Grippers are waterproof and have a textured material which increases grip.

Do you need pain relief from arthritis, trigger finger, finger surgery, finger injury or any other finger aliment?

The finger brace provide compression which stimulates blood flow, reduces swelling and inflammation, generates and maintains heat.

Can I wear them under or over a glove?

The finger braces can be worn in place of a glove, under or over a glove for additional support and padding.

How can I get additional pain relief?

Using a pain relief cream and then applying the brace will increase the amount of heat generated which aids in helping sooth the achy joint.

For those that experience more relief from cold, the brace can be gotten wet and placed in the freezer for a few minutes and worn.

We are happy to create a custom order with custom colors and logos and packaging to fit your individual needs.  Please contact us to discuss what you would like and we can discuss pricing.

How do I care for them?

Hand wash in cold water using a mild soap.  Rinse thoroughly, as residual soap may cause skin irritation and deterioration of the brace.  Let air dry.

How are the braces constructed?

The braces are first glued and then sewn along the seam.  This is done so that if the stitching comes out the brace will not come apart.  The stitching along the top and bottom of the brace provides a nice finish which helps the brace last longer through the normal wear and tear process.
