ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a contoured wrist support that includes a sheet portion adapted to be wrapped around the wrist, the sheet portion being made up of more than one element having contoured edges stitched together so as to provide it with a three-dimensional shape, the sheet portion having a cushioning lining and pockets for receiving three reinforcing members. One of the reinforcing members is rigid and complementarily overlies the back of the hand and wrist. A second reinforcing member is generally rigid but can be deflected slightly by hand and complementarily overlies the palm of the hand and inside of the wrist. The third reinforcing member, between the first and second reinforcing members, is positioned along the outer side edge of the hand and wrist and made of malleable material so that it can be deflected by the user to assume the contour of his hand and wrist.
