Bone Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Does anyone have a recommendation for wrist guards for larger hands? I recently bought 187 wrist guards in the largest size they have and I had to return them. My thumbs felt like they were being strangled. I normally wear my dirtbike gloves (3XL) but I'd prefer to have the hard wrist splints in a fall. Would be nice to have my fingers free to use my phone when needed too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
litewave Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 (edited) Demon Double-Sided Flexmeters come in a size large and have a lot of stretch, but tbh they are not very big. Also, the stretch fabric between the two sides is a point of failure. I have poked a hole just below the thumb opening on every pair (three pairs). Having said that, they have an explicit warranty and have already replaced one set for me.

..... Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 (edited) FlexMeters are what I wear sometimes. I dont think they run especially big tho. They are REALY stretchy near the thumb. To the point you gotta be careful, as @litewave mentions. I'd vote for buying from a place with a decent return policy and trying. Beware of any that are TOO stiff, as this merely puts a stress point on the arm where it ends. Good luck!

Bone Posted May 20, 2021 Author Share Posted May 20, 2021 Thanks guys. Got my Flexmeters yesterday. They're still a little tight between the thumb and index finger but totally manageable, and might break in over time. They definitely seem like a quality product so far! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
