a new era of finger protection

IT'S MORE THAN PROTECTION . IT'S A HAND HEALTH MOVEMENT.

Our hands are our primary tool in almost every sport. It is vital we protect them.

THE BIRTH OF GRIPS 3D

We are a team of engineers and athletes that came together to make a difference in the sporting world.

With our background being predominantly in grappling, we had had enough of non stop finger injuries, with no real solution, other than the century old method of finger taping.

OUR VERY FIRST PROTOTYPE

After a year of deep research and development, understanding finger injuries and the best ways to prevent them, our first design was officially produced.

It wasn't perfect, and highlighted a lot of areas for improvement, but it proved one thing - our mission was possible.

IMPLEMENTING LESSONS LEARNED

Our second iteration was vastly improved. We altered sizing ratios to better fit the human anatomy and understood the importance of breathability, adding perforation to the design.

THE DESIGN THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING

This is the design that put us on the map. Sizing ratios were perfected, so that the brace feels like a part of your finger. The perforations were switched out for a mesh design, for even better breathability, as well as unmatched ergonomics.

AS GOOD AS IT GETS

Iteration 3 had a 97% user recommendation rate and made finger tape a thing of the past, but we didn't feel like stopping there.

We made our finishing touches to the design, this time focusing on the hinge.

We altered the bend radius, varied material thicknesses, and tweaked the overall hinge geometry. These upgrades quadrupled braces life span and improved brace comfort even more.

BLACK BELT APPROVED

After 26+ years of BJJ, I recently started experiencing finger pain for the first time. And I was losing grip strength which has always been an important aspect of my game. As I was looking for solutions, I came across @grips3d I started using their product and immediately my hands started feeling better. And after a few weeks of use, my grip strength has returned. I am so very grateful for this product. Easy to use and super effective. If you’re experiencing finger pain or weakness, I recommend if you give these a try. I am not endorsed by this company, nor do I receive any compensation from them. Just happy to share my positive experience with a great product.
