Dr. Frederick's Original Arthritis Gloves — Best Open-Finger — Maximum Dexterity
The Dr. Frederick's open-finger design provides compression at the palm and wrist while keeping all fingertips free — making it the best choice for people who need to type, cook, or use touchscreens while wearing their gloves. The neoprene-blend fabric retains heat effectively. Clinician-designed and recommended by many occupational therapists.
