ACE Brand Active Wear Wrist Brace, Left Hand, Large/ Extra Large

3M/ACE sent us this wrist brace to try out & review, and the fact that it's a light, firm, effective support isn't the main perk- It's that you can wear it in the shower, swimming, playing water polo!! It's an awesome idea and long overdue-- Thanks again 3M- Great work!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I received this product for free in return for an honest review. Many years ago I was involved in a car accident and my left hand and wrist were injured. Jobs I have had involved a lot of typing, which caused my wrist/hand to pulse with a toothache-type pain. I've tried many types of wrist/arm braces. Some work better than others, but this one is different in that it can be worn in “water” situations – doing the dishes, scrubbing the tub, doing laundry, etc. It is so simple to put on your arm. I received the left one as that is my problem arm/wrist. You just slide your hand arm into it and pull the velcro tab to secure it as tightly as you need. While I like the plastic brace, I am concerned about how long the elastic bands will hold and not snap. It is very lightweight and practical. It takes a little getting used to the feel of the product, but hey it works. I would suggest this to anyone who needs more than just wrist support, as it helps support the forearm also.
