These gloves are OK, but they're no big deal. I thought they would feel a lot more supportive, but they just feel warm and snug. Thermoskin gloves are much more supporting. The disadvantage of Thermoskin is the unnatural feel of the fabric. I ordered these gloves because they looked more breatheable, which they are, so they will probably stay cleaner and less sweaty. However, they just give a modest amount of support.

Excellent workmanship on these gloves. They keep your hands nice and warm. The material is flexible, but not flexible enough to crochet with, which is what I had wanted them for. The seams, and there are a lot of them (some fingers have four) are nice and flat. You don't feel them at all.

Overall, a great glove for almost every task, but just slightly difficult to write with or crochet. Are excellent for typing!!

Having arthritis and carpal tunnel I certainly have problems working with my hands. I am an artist and need to deal with the pain on a daily basis. These gloves keep my hands warm, are a dead-on fit and are very comfortable. They don't seem to be very constricting (I was looking for something that had compression aspects) but are good to sleep with to keep your hands warm. Even though they aren't quite what I was looking for, they are good quality and handy to work with. Hem stitching seems to snap easily and needs to be mended but it seems that any of these gloves no matter what brand they are, have this problem. I will use them occasionally, mostly at night or under outside gloves/mittens. I also found isotoner fingerless gloves that work more to what I was after. If you're looking for warmth and not compression I do recommend them. I love fingerless gloves. Makes work bearable.

Because of a problem with arthritis, My hands become so cold that they ache terribly. I saw these gloves advertised in an arthitis health magazine, and decided to try them. I am so glad I did. These gloves have been just wonderful! The pain in my hands is dramatically less, even though I ordered my regular glove size, and my hands stay warm. I will be ordering a smaller size. The only problem I have had is that the seam around the thumb area-one of my problem areas-is a bit uncomfortable. Turning them inside out solved this problem. These are much superior to the Isotoner Therapeutic gloves I ordered at the same time.

These are wonderful for typing, crafting, whatever! I wear them all the time. My office can get cold so it's nice to have some slender gloves that don't interfere with anything I need to do on a keyboard or mouse.

Unfortunately, the seams at the thumb have unraveled, and no amount of mending has stopped the unravelling process. The results of wearing the gloves are positive, but the quality of the construction leaves room for improvement.

I have just purchased yet another pair of these great arthritis gloves. I find the gentle compression very soothing to aching hands. The color is neutral and goes with everything (and is not that truly ugly "flesh" color of some other similar products). Other reviewers have complained of the inner seams. I experienced similar discomfort, so simply turned the gloves inside out. An added bonus: They are so durable and go through the washer AND dryer without a problem!

I have arthritis in both hands, in every finger. I had read that these type of gloves could help, so I decided to try this brand,
and it was a great decision. They help keep my hands warm and there's enough compression to help with the pain. I liked them so
much my husband tried them, and they helped him immensely. So we ordered him a pair, too. The small size really is for smaller
hands, so please be careful to adjust size according to your own hands.

I purchased 3 pairs of these Imak Arthritis Gloves. I gave a pair to my mom and dad. They claim they now sleep through the night and wake up without pain in the fingers.

These gloves give me not only warmth, but just the right compression needed when having an arthritis flare-up in my hands. I especially like that the fingers come up to the second joint (near the nails) as I often have pain there also. Unlike some others who reviewed these, I've had no problems with the seams. They allow good dexterity for all activities. Do follow the manufacturers guidelines for measuring your hand, as I take a medium in other gloves, but the measurement called for a small, and the fit is perfect. These are also pretty decent looking, in case I need to wear them outside the house. Very impressed!
