    only use it for spacious gloves that have limited knuckle padding - gloves where I'd be trying to use a knuckle guard anyway.

    They have a little better coverage than your standard cotton knuckle guard and work better as a standalone.

    prior to using them on gloves i needed a knuckleguard with, i hated them.
    they cut off circulation, they don't have a ton of wrist support, they fall apart super quick, and they require a little trimming/customization before they're comfortable.
