Sizing Information
How to Size the Push MetaGrip
To ensure you choose the correct size for your Push MetaGrip, please watch our video on how to measure. (Refer to images for sizing chart)
**The sizing chart is merely a guideline as thumbs vary in size. Sometimes you may need to try more than one brace size to find the proper fit
Application Information:
- How to Fit the Push MetaGrip
- To ensure you choose the correct size for your Push MetaGrip, please watch our video on how to measure.
- Before putting on the Push MetaGrip for the first time, gently bend the metal insert SLIGHTLY outward so the thumb area is somewhat larger.
- Open the straps.
- Slide your fingers and thumb into the brace and push the brace as far down on your thumb as possible.
- Gently, but firmly, close the straps; do NOT pull them tightly. (See Figure 1.)
- Touch your thumb tip to your index fingertip, making a gentle "O" shape, but BE SURE your thumb muscles are relaxed, and the thumb joints are slightly flexed. (See Figure 2.)
- Check that your thumb is not too far across your palm or too far out of your palm, but in a mid-position.
- With your thumb in the mid-position and relaxed, squeeze the metal insert firmly so it snuggly fits around the muscles of your thumb. (See Figure 3.)
