Review on 🀲 Dakine Low Profile Men's Wrist Guards for Enhanced Wrist Protection by Matt Welch

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sized over men's mittens

Update: Worn twice snowboarding. I chose to wear them without pads as it was too difficult to put on a mitten with pads and suspenders. The suspenders are very tight, but not too tight when you put them on. Love them and don't even notice them while driving. I tried several times to ride without them but regretted it when I crashed. I no longer drive without it and am trying to persuade my husband to buy it. I keep them in the inner mesh pocket of my coat when I'm not riding. Haven't tested them in the mountains yet but so far they seem great. I wear a small lined men's Dakine glove (and maybe a large women's glove, but it was out of stock). I bought these braces on average and they fit well. Therefore it seems that you choose one size larger than the men's gloves/mittens you are wearing. It seems like it chafes the webbed my thumb and forefinger so I tried pads underneath and it was better. It fits perfectly under my chest and I don't think I will notice the brace while snowboarding. I will update this review if anything changes.

Pros
  • Velcro adjustable wrist
Cons
  • Non automatic
