This is the heavy one. If you want something slim to type in, buy a different wrist brace — this wrist brace was built for collision sports, and everything about it follows from that.

A shaped foam pad sits across the back of the wrist. That is the part of the wrist brace doing the work when a hand gets stood on or a wrist folds back under a hit. Two elastic straps cinch over the top of it, so you set both how tight the wrist brace is and how high up the forearm it sits — a lineman and a bowler do not want the same setup.

The wrist brace cuff is latex-free neoprene, which means it holds warmth as well as pressure. The insert is adjustable, so the amount of stiffness is up to you rather than fixed at the factory. Nothing crosses the hand: catching, gripping and pushing all still work.

Away from a pitch it turns out to be the wrist brace people reach for under a barbell or on a day of moving boxes, for the same reason — this wrist brace can take being knocked and it does not shift.

Two sizes, measured directly over the wrist bones with the wrist held straight: under 7" is S/M, over 7" is L/XL. There is no left or right version of this wrist brace to pick.

WHAT IT IS

A Pad, Two Cinches, And Nothing Over The Hand

A shaped foam pad sits across the back of the wrist and takes the hits. Two elastic straps cinch over the top of it, so you set both how tight it is and how high up the forearm it sits. The hand itself is left completely alone — catching, gripping and pushing all still work.

WHERE IT GOES

Contact, Training, And The Rest Of The Week

It was built for collision sports, which is why the shell is heavier than a desk brace and why the pad is there at all. That same build is what makes it the one you reach for under a barbell or on a day of carrying — it can take being landed on.

TWO SIZES

Measure Over The Bones, Not Below Them

This is the one people get wrong. Keep the wrist straight and run the tape directly over the joint, including the bones that stick out — not in the dip below them. Under 7" is S/M, over 7" is L/XL.

AGAINST A SLEEVE

Why Not A Slip-On Sleeve

A slip-on sleeve gives you warmth and a fixed squeeze. This gives you a pad over the back of the wrist and two straps you set yourself, which is what you want when something is about to land on it. It is bulkier, and that is the trade.

Heavier on purpose. Here is why.

Frequently asked
questions.

The questions people actually ask before buying one.

No. There is one design and two sizes, so all you choose is S/M or L/XL.

Keep the wrist straight and run the tape directly over the joint, including the bones that stick out — not in the dip below them. Under 7" is S/M, over 7" is L/XL. Measuring below the bones is how people end up a size small.

Yes, and plenty of people buy it for exactly that. The pad and the two cinch straps hold the wrist firm under a bar. It is bulkier than a lifting wrap, which is the trade for the protection.

Under a loose work glove, usually. Under a fitted sports glove, no — the pad across the back of the wrist adds real height. It is designed to sit above the glove.

Warmer than a mesh brace. Neoprene holds heat, which is welcome outdoors in November and less welcome in a hot gym.

No. It limits how far the wrist goes back and it stops it moving loosely, but you can still use the hand — that is the point of a guard rather than a splint.

Hand wash in cool water with mild detergent, squeeze the water out and air dry flat away from heat. Fasten both straps down first.

Free U.S. shipping and a 30-day return window, so you can measure, wear it for a few nights and send it back if the fit is wrong.
