Shear Comfort Palm Protector
Shear Comfort Palm Protector protects your palms and help your hands relax. Palm Protectors can offer relief from curling fingers, hand contractures and cramping. The Palm Protector is put on over the thumb and around the hand, providing a cushioning pad for the fingers to curl onto, preventing the nails from digging into the palms, whilst also keeping the fingers warm and supported.
Shear Comfort XD1900
Fabric-backed medical sheep’s wool, unique to Shear Comfort
XD1900 is medical sheep’s wool unique to Shear Comfort, with a fibre density higher than even the very best natural sheepskins – which gives it superior pressure redistribution properties. This is achieved by weaving natural wool to a fabric backing, and is not to be confused with artificial sheepskins created from synthetic ‘wool.’ We use natural wool, and treat it to ensure it can be repeatedly washed up to 80°C. Plus, because XD1900 has no leather backing, it can be washed with normal household detergent.
Shear Comfort products are guaranteed against deterioration for up to 50 washes.
Palm Protectors are sold singularly.
