 Imak Compression Gloves....AKA: Miracle Gloves! Nov 05, 2009
By R. Kosier
I absolutely LOVE these gloves. Having Rheumatoid Arthritis, my hands are one area that are usually painful and inflamed. After the first 2 hours of wearing these gloves the swelling in my hands had decreased so much that I was able to remove my wedding band......something I have not been able to do in over 5 years. The gloves are easy to put on, easily removed and are comfortable to wear. However, I have not worn them any longer than 2-3 hours at a time. The open fingertips allows you to use your computer keyboard, as I am doing at this moment wearing the gloves and writing this review. In my case, these gloves ease the joint pain in each and every one of my fingers. I have not yet had the opportunity to try these in the cold weather. I have since purchased an additional pair to leave at work for use on the job. Of all of the things I have purchased in my lifetime, house and cars included, these gloves are in the top 5% of all of my good and smart purchases. My advice, BUY THEM, but be sure to purchase the correct size and use the sizing charts to assist you in selecting your gloves.

 Fashion statement? No...Arthritis. Apr 25, 2009
By Opinionated
The mild compression and warmth these gloves provide is a help to hurting hands. Like another reviewer, I like that the fingers are long enough to cover all the joints...though I occasionally have to tug them down. I love the open finger design and thin fabric, which allow me to wear them when I work. The gray color is nice...they don't look "theraputic". I've had lots of people ask about them. They think they look cool! I've had a loose thread and a small section of a finger seam come loose, but not enough to bother fixing. When these wear out I will buy more, but I expect these two pair will last me a long time.

Hands feel much better Jan 14, 2009
By Patricia Rogers
I received these gloves from my son for my birthday. I have hardly taken them off since receiving them, I especially sleep with them on. My hands are warm and not nearly as swollen. I have osteoarthritis in both my hands, particularly in my fingers. The relief I have gotten is one of the few things that have given me any relief. The cold weather is so difficult for me along with, at times, extreme pain in both hands. I even had the end digits on my right hand fused a few years ago, to no avail. I wish I had them in flesh color instead of charcoal, but no matter I love them.

The relief I was hoping to find! Jan 06, 2010
By K. Cuthbertson
"Outnumbered (4 boys!)"
I'm in my 30's and have had arthritis for almost 14 years. The pain in my hands has been getting worse and has become more disruptive over the last couple of years, and I've tried several things to find relief, including topical OTC creams as well as heat wraps and other "compression" gloves. I just received my IMAK Arthritis gloves yesterday, and I've worn them almost non-stop since then, even while sleeping. Not only do they help my hands stay warmer (which is always a boon when dealing with arthritis), they provide support and mild compression without being uncomfortable. The gloves are not unattractive, and they are thin enough to be worn under my regular winter gloves when going outside.
The swelling in the joints of my fingers is already noticeably reduced. I will definitely be ordering at least one more pair since the washing instructions say to hand wash (I'll be using the delicate cycle and putting them in a lingerie bag) and line dry. I have to say that I'm more excited about the results I am seeing from these gloves than I've been about the results/relief achieved from any of the medications, creams and heat wraps I've tried. I definitely recommend these gloves above any other I've tried.

 Order size carefully Jun 21, 2008
By K. Seyle
"plant lover"
I have rheumatoid arthritis and use these gloves under my braces. They are excellant quality and well worth the price! Sizing is tricky though. If you have swelling in your fingers and/or wrists, you may need to order up two sizes. They are pretty tight (give excellant support), but can be painfully tight too :-(
