A reusable pair of open-finger compression gloves with hot/cold gel built in. They give you firm compression across the back of the hand, knuckles and wrist — and the same pair can be frozen for cold or warmed for heat when compression on its own is not enough.

Most compression gloves only compress. These do that, and the gel panels mean the same glove also delivers cold or heat. You are not buying a compression glove and an ice pack separately.

No — the finger stalls stop just past the first knuckle, so your fingertips are free. You can type, grip a tool, use your phone and keep working without taking them off.

Yes — worn at room temperature they are simply a compression glove, so you can put them on and get on with things. The 10–15 and 15–20 minute limits apply to cold and heat use, not to plain compression.

Snug and even, never pinching or numbing. Snug is the point — compression is what holds the gel against your knuckles and fingers. If your hand tingles or goes cold, take them off.

Freeze for 1–2 hours, slide them on, and wear for 10–15 minutes. Take them off and let your hands return to normal temperature before you go again.

Microwave in short bursts until warm, checking the temperature as you go. Slide them on, flex your fingers, and wear for 15–20 minutes.

They come in M and L. The fit is meant to be close — that is what keeps the compression even and the gel where you want it.

Send them back within 30 days for your money back. That sits alongside your rights under Australian Consumer Law, never instead of them.
