Do to longterm steroid use the skin on my hands is very fragile. Are these protective also? Say from bumps?

While the gloves are thick, I can't say that they would protect your hands from bruises from being bumped. I believe they would cushion the bump but I can't say to what degree. I really like the way they not only keep my hands warm, but they also help with arthritic pain. I personally recommend them for the stiff joints and aches of arthritis. I hope this helps.

There isn't any padding on the gloves but the dots in the grip do seem to make gripping items easier on the hands.

They will provide moderate protection, but they are not thick. I think you become more aware of your hands because of the glove, which may help.

As you can see from the pictures the glove material is medium thickness, with some compression. They offer some warmth and I believe would protect skin from accidentally bumping your hand lightly which might otherwise abrade your skin. No protection from heavy contact, the kind which would cause bruise. Definitely worth trying.

it depends very much on how tough is the skin you "grind" and how often you use them, right? I used them pretty hard so far but not able to exhaust them. so I would say they last a lot.

They'll probably cause some joint pain and muscle soreness for a few days after use the first couple weeks. After that, if you have problems you may want to use them less, which has solved practically all the issues I have had. Even if you lift heavy weights, like I do, you have to remember that you have not specifically trained your grip before. You have to build up to it.

I'm still using my first pair since Feb. 2014. Some of the rubber is coming off but still usuable. I only use this for my retail work which consist mainly of stocking shelves and breaking down cardboard boxes. I love these gloves. Size small fits like glove (pun intended) on me. Hope this helps.

Padding is a bit less with these gloves, but that's probably the case because they are full fingered. However, I think they protect your whole hand very well.

I have had this for a while and I had a steroidal reaction, don't use it...use asdm with hydroquinone serum and lotion instead. My reaction from caro white was bad and embarrassing.

hi danika,these will give you some more support, but i found that after using them for a bit the gel padding area broke open, and that although they covered the knuckle where your finger joins your hand, they do not protect the next knuckle out, which still got pretty beat up. i switched to everlast wrist support heavy bag gloves, which work much better for support and protection, but are still flexible enough after a bit of breaking in to be comfortable. i also got a pair of cheap dollar store stretchy winter gloves, cut off each finger about half way, and wear them under the boxing gloves. it absorbs the perspiration and keeps the boxing glove cleaner. hope this helps!kathi hi danika,these will give you some more support, but i found that after using them for a bit the gel padding area broke open, and that although they covered the knuckle where your finger joins your hand, they do not protect the next knuckle out, which still got pretty beat up. i switched to everlast wrist support heavy bag gloves, which work much better for support and protection, but are still flexible enough after a bit of breaking in to be comfortable. i also got a pair of cheap dollar store stretchy winter gloves, cut off each finger about half way, and wear them under the boxing... » Read More hi danika,these will give you some more support, but i found that after using them for a bit the gel padding area broke open, and that although they covered the knuckle where your finger joins your hand, they do not protect the next knuckle out, which still got pretty beat up. i switched to everlast wrist support heavy bag gloves, which work much better for support and protection, but are still flexible enough after a bit of breaking in to be comfortable. i also got a pair of cheap dollar store stretchy winter gloves, cut off each finger about half way, and wear them under the boxing gloves. it absorbs the perspiration and keeps the boxing glove cleaner. hope this helps!kathi « Show Less

I never really noticed. Why does that matter? You're working out and they feel comfortable and properly cushion your hand. The only thing I've seen is that the edges around the wrist area absorb a little sweat. I use the natural coloured one and would not have noticed this as much with the black gloves but I still like the colour I chose. :)

I've never tried this on my hands. I would use it at night and slip cotton gloves on or those stretch gloves from Wal-Mart you can get for $1. This product has been the best thing for my heals. I had crevices in them and was afraid of infection. I use nightly before bed, no socks.

I apologize for the delay...family illness. I put a pair of cheap plastic gloves on. (You can buy a box $3-4) spray it on my hands and then rub it on. Being older with not so perfect skin anymore this gives much better control. I hope this helps! =) Good product!

Ehhhh I'd make sure you wash them first. If your hands aren't the perfect fit for the gloves you may lose the pill - not sure. I imagine a better pair is out there for what you want the glove to do. Best of luck.

These are not real training gloves but will suffice. If you are looking after the longterm heath of your hands and will be hitting a lot (20-45 minutes/day including hard hitting not just speed work and pulled punches) invest in a pair of real bag gloves from Ringside. Your hands will thank you when they aren't pre-arthritic 10 yrs later.

Well, since the skin is very sensitive under the arms, I would say "yes" but with CAUTION. Do not go too fast or hard because you will bruise. I do this only on my legs and even my legs get bruised. However, it does wonders and really reduces the appearance of cellulite. If you have severe cellulite, I suggest doing it twice a day for 10 minutes each time but only for a week. Stop for one week and repeat. If you plan to use it on your arms, I would do 5 minutes at a time and maybe only twice a week as a start. Maybe even less, it will hurt at first, especially your arms but like I said, it is worth it. I hope this helps.

If you really have sensitive wrists, you could give a chance to the gloves, otherwise I don't think you will have any issues with it. I don't find it hard on the hands/wrists whatsoever.

What kind of "chemicals" are you referring to? Other than some hand soap, the only "chemicals" I've exposed them to are brief periods using hand sanitizer and Clorox cleaning wipes. The rubber finger tips seem to retain their shape and elasticity well with brief exposures to these two substances. I use these once or twice a week for opening, sorting, counting and batching large quantities of mail (approx 1000-2000 packets of documents) and they last a few months at a time. I find that after a few months they start to stretch out- become looser- and do not stay on my fingers as well. Hope this helps.

I have not had any issue with skin reaction, skin tear etc. I use them to keep my insulin pump and tubing in place, works great! When I remove, no skin tears or problems and yet they are the best as far as being water resistant. Have tried other brands, not as good. Good luck

they do cover some but i'm thinking if they don't they would still do the job of giving you great relief and confort i think it would be worth it to try them. I really believe these gloves would work for you. Hope this help with your decision.
