BJJ Double Finger Sleeve Tape Replacement (Medium)

I’ve suffered for a long time with joint pain between my pointer and middle fingers on my right hand. I recently had my first cortisone shot and it didn’t fix the pain. My doctor wanted me to use the buddy finger wraps but they were annoying and they were constantly coming undone when I’d try to use my hands. I thought I’d try this and it is amazing. I make sure to wear it every night and throughout the day when I’m not knitting, writing or washing things. I’ve ran it through the washing machine twice and it’s held up well. However, I’ll probably buy it again just to have two on hand.

Definitely helps my fingers avoid some of the chronic issues I’ve had in the past. Saves me time and money from having to buy tape. Over noticed it isn’t a 100% replacement for tape but it’s pretty close. Good enough if you want to spare your fingers a lot of wear and tear. Don’t inhibit gripping.

nice to keep two fingers together. Comfortable

Great, just didn't know what size to get so I got large and extra large. Would great tho

I had a severe injury this summer and nearly amputated the last 3rd of my index finger. It is healing fairly well, but is not totally flexible, and has little feeling - a recipe for getting that finger caught and broken (or worse!). This sleeve allows me to "mate" the index finger with my middle finger for safety. I use it when I am working with equipment outside and it works great. I still have flexibility, but the index finger is now padded and wont "stick out" where it can get caught and possibly broken.

Not made we’ll, ripped after one use

It’s working…

I wanted to like this thing. I have been buddy taping these two fingers for 12 years due to a rugby-related loose ligament. Taping the fingers was fine for rugby but less effective for jiu jitsu due to the need for strong, constant grips. The sleeve seemed like a good choice and a way to save on tape and retain flexibility. It slipped off during the first training session so I reinforced it with tape, which kind of defeats the purpose (1st photo). Also, the XL is too short for long fingers. It wore a hole in itself by the fourth training session (2nd photo). Find something more durable.
