Abstract
The protective hand and wrist guard includes a front portion which is substantially rigid. The front portion includes a first section which extends over the inner wrist area of the user. A second section extends therefrom and curves over the heel area of the hand and into the palm area, extending upwardly to an upper end which extends across the hand just below the base of the fingers. One side edge curves partially around a lower edge of the hand, while an opposing edge curves below the base of the thumb and includes an outwardly extending portion which at its free end curves partially around an upper edge of the hand between the forefinger and the thumb. A protective pad is attached to the inner surface of the front portion, while straps at the upper and lower ends secure the article firmly on the user.
