SOLD! But I can make more!
The customer I made these for ended up in emergency surgery before I could ship. Based upon the Doctor and Surgeons recommendations I remade the set for the customer (hence I have these available for purchase). They are complete and ready to go. I would prefer to sell them as a set but may break the set depending on your circumstances. The set is $600.00. If you are interested please contact me and I will give you every possible dimension. I would consider these as a medium size. More details can be had, just let me know. Read the text below for more details concerning custom possibilities. DH
This Leather Wrist Brace was made for a customer that pretty much beats his pharmaceutical braces to death. As I understand it he goes through one of the fabric braces monthly. Whether just beating it up or "setting it on fire" as he says while welding his custom drag cars, they just don't last nor support his damaged wrist properly. Apparently other leathersmiths he has contacted to create this stated "it can't be done". We'll, yes it can...see? "Bruzer", as he is called. contacted me a while back with this request and was kind enough to mail me an old brace that I could use both as a pattern and for internal parts for the new one. This leather wrist brace is made out of 5-6oz. oil tanned leather with a 1/8" piece of foam sandwiched between the oil tanned outer shell and the suede lining. The buckles are nickel plated while the straps are all riveted with nickle rivets for both strength and panache. This item is a prototype as I needed to construct it and get it to the customer for testing and suggestions for giving him a better fit. Think about it, if you have to wear something like this all day you definitely want to make sure that it fits perfectly. The final brace will be in the $250.00 - $300.00 range and note that larger braces for larger wrists will require more leather. I've tried this on (my arm in the pic) and I assure you that your wrist will not move with this baby on. Next step is to create a "dress brace" for those times when he's out and about on the town... hmmm, where could I go with that?! DH
I am very interested in this as well, motorcycle wreck has caused the need for exactly this style brace for my left hand, but also need one like this for right hand with a thumb brace. I wear a large in the store bought, but they only last maybe two weeks at most
Lou, sent you a direct email. Dave
I to am a metalworker/ blacksmith with a damaged right wrist who starts non-leather items on fire . I’m a woman [ but 6ft tall ] so a slightly smaller one would be in order . I like what I see in the pictures .. what now ?
Hey is this style still around? I broke my left wrist biking, a couple of times. I’m looking for something this, some thing that I can wear on a daily, at work, on the town ext. Please contact me via email
I have also experienced a nasty motorcycle accident and am really in need of this type of left handed brace. Would be very interested in a “dress brace” as well. Need help because I’ve looked every where and can’t find one. I’m not ready or willing to give up use of my hand.
I have similar problems with my wrist. Surgery has done all that can be done and now I just have to deal with the pain. Immobilization helps, but I cannot find a brace that is durable enough to wear every day; and all attempts at finding a leather brace have been fruitless.
I see these are old posts, so I am asking about the status of your braces. They look pretty good and I would be interested in purchasing one.
Thank you
I want this item as soon as possible.
God Bless. Hello, do you have any kind of measurring guide for the brace? I need one for my right arm wrist. I am wearing one from the VA. Please let know the cost.
Thanks, Sergio
I am interested in this too. I am a blacksmith who burns through the store bought ones daily.
Very nice! I have been looking for a right and left hand brace exactly like these. Both my wrists and hands are shot due to 40 years of cooking.Could you send me a price for both? The velcro in-store ones get torn and worn The velcro itself gets filled with lint and material. Affecting it’s performance.
I am interested in having one of these made for a friend. Right hand in Brown leather. Please contact me in regards to this if possible.
Im a mechanic and this would be awesome.
Interested in a pair of braces in shell cordovan.
Are you still doing these? My right wrist is starting to feel the effects of drills, and hand saws!
I have what they call a SLAC wrist …missing ligament from years ago now progressing to arthritis. I am interested in this brace and would like to see a dress brace as well.
Morning Alan. Obviously can do this. I have sent you a direct email a bit more in depth. Many options available so lets chat. Dave
Wow! This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I am suffering from rheumatoid arthritis in both my wrist but I work as a technician and find that I can’t perform the tasks I would like to. Could you please send me a quote on a pair of these.
Do you still make these? If so, could you do one in brown with brass hardware?
Wow! Do you still make these? I’m very interested in this
Dear sir,
I also am a 35 yr heavy equipment welder that has a damaged right wrist. At sixty, I’m not going to stop, but I need your help. When can I get your braces ?? Home and away..
Thank you,
Barry Whiteford
This looks like what I need. I have been a welder for 36 years and my left wrist/thumb can really hurt some days. Wrist is 8.5″, hand is 4″ at knuckles. Can you give me a price?
Hello Dave,
I found you while searching for leather wrist braces. I have to wear the regular braces that I can find at Walgreens. These work fine to keep my wrist stable, however I’d like to find something in leather and that looks cooler.
Do you still do this type of brace?
Thank you.

I have recently had a full tendon transfer on right had with nerve damage. Dr advises finding a brace to wear full time. I would like to explore have a couple made.
I’m very interested in a more stylish brace. I had a partial fusion on my left wrist and my body is rejecting the staples. I’m going to have to wear a brace for the rest of my life and hate the bulky store bought ones.
Am very interested in this. Have had surgery on both of my wrists leaving me with arthritis in both hands at 21. This is exactly what i was looking for but trying to find a lighter color (like a tan leather.)
Hey,
Do you still make these? I fractured a vertebra a few years back and I never regained full mobility in my right wrist and hand. I can still use my right hand, but my wrist is weak and my hand tends to want to curl up. Can you make me one of these? I see that your last post was in 2018.
