I got this product for my brother who does power weight lifting, but I don't think I will give them to him. I like them because they help with my carpal tunnel. They feel great and are not as bulky as other wraps or braces. The part that goes around your thumb works really well and helps it stay put. They are soft and smooth, feels great to wear for long time periods. I recieved this product at a heavy discount or for free for a honest review.
