The Hand Contraction Pads are padded with a soft material cover. They are for people with contracted hands, as they will help stop skin touching skin, and they help prevent perspiration building up in the palm and between the fingers. The Full Padded version has filling in the main palm section and the finger sections. The Half Padded version has a small amount of padding in the palm section, and no padding in the finger sections.
Key Features
- Sold in pairs - one for each hand.
