Review

Works with Steam Controllers!
Verified Purchase
These work flawlessly with Steam Controller touch pads. I have decals on my controllers and there is no sensitivity loss anywhere on the pads. Sensitivity is actually even improved on the edges of the pads. Low haptics are a little less noticeable though with a fresh pair but it's not that big of a deal in my opinion once you break them in. I've also noticed that I have to lift my thumbs a tiny bit higher while wearing these when resetting positions. It's a small difference that feels big.

Small update: An issue I had at first was consistently activating double tap bindings. It turns out I just needed to build up new muscle memory. Once you get used to the very small height increase, all touch inputs will function exactly the same.
I also tested the pure touch sense of the sleeves alone with the touchpads (incase you want to wear these on top of gloves) and they work perfectly.

Second update: One pair is still going strong after 1 month and that is honestly good enough for me. Once a pair does fully wear out, I'll make a final update. For now, I heavily recommend these to anyone who owns a Steam Controller.

Last update: Alright, well none of them have really totally broken down yet after 4 months. Only one pair so far feels like it has lost a significant amount of smoothness. Touchpads don't really need precision but if your interested in these for mobile, this could be an issue. My review still stands. If you own a Steam Controller or plan on getting a Steam Deck, I highly recommend these.
 
These "Claw Sox" Work Great
Verified Purchase
I stretch these "Claw Sox" over the fingertips of my winter gloves so I can operate my tablet during cold weather and they work just as well, if not better, than my fingers alone and my hands are a whole lot warmer. Great product!
 
The Cadillac of thumb sleeves!
Verified Purchase
I’ve tried other brands but these are legit. These are what I’d call the Cadillac of gaming thumb sleeves. The only thing I’d change is for them to offer them in a smaller size. My kids are driving me crazy wanting a pair but their fingers are too small! Don’t wait...buy these now!
 
Not a gamer but I love them
Verified Purchase
I'm 70 years old, don't game anymore but I read a lot of books on my Kindles and have other tablets as well. Old dry skin does not make for a good tap or swipe, even with screen sensitivity turned all the way up. My fingers get sore easily especially from any fingernail prying. Finger bandages are useless. I can take these on and off as needed. I have big hands and the fit is good. One tap and the device responds especially useful for the virtual keyboards. Money well spent better than a stylus for most uses
 
Works with fingers in sturdy leather gloves
Verified Purchase
 Was looking for something to allow my gloved finger to work my phone. This is it! Works great with my thick leather (Hillbilly Wrist Guard) gloves.
 
Great for artist
Verified Purchase
I'm using these with an artist glove that prevents my palm from touching my screen, but leaves my thumb, index, and middle finger open for ease of handling my s-pen. Using these on my thumb and middle finger allows me to scroll and zoom around the artwork without leaving smudges on my screen, and when I'm drawing, I want a clean screen as I work.

These are also very handy for putting on over my arthritis compression gloves so that I can still use the touch features of my phone, tablet, and trackpads.

I don't game the way I used to, and when I game, I use a controller. Touch screen gaming is difficult with rheumatoid arthritis, so when I do game, it's PC gaming. Therefore, I can only guess these would be good for gaming on Android. But for me, they are ideal for drawing and taking notes with my s-pen.
 
Who knew they made these!?
Verified Purchase
I've been playing the Mobile League of Legends game on my phone, and I was having issues with my thumb sticking to the screen or feeling the phone heat up. Theese are awesome for mobile games that are 3D and require accuracy with the movement. I never heard of these until I got them, but they are awesome. The only negative is the build quality wont last forever, but they are not costly and if you keep track and take care of them you will get your value from them.
 
Worth every penny
Verified Purchase
I’ve purchased other gaming sleeves in the past. There’s more economic options out there but in the long run I’ve found myself buying more and more because they stop working. These are so far the best. One set has lasted me at least a month. I’ve got two more sets as a backup(3 sets per package). Other cheaper options started failing at a week and a half. Tops two. Loving these.
 
Perfect for touchscreen gaming
Verified Purchase
I am a gamer, like through and through so when I noticed I was wearing off the special protective coating on my phone from excessive gaming use I opted to try these.

Now for those that have worn down that coating you know it gets rough well not when you have these little socks on. It plays great and smooth. I have since repaired the screen and put a protective glass over it also but I still use these every time.

So far they and the screen have held up great.

Caveat DO NOT GET THE WET. they seem to be utter garbage if you get water on them they dry funny and it becomes scratchy. That said I have only had that happen to one and the rest have been fine.

Overall great product and preforms better than expected.
 
Answered prayers!
Verified Purchase
My touchpad was hurting my fingertips.
Bought a touchpad protector and it didn't help.
Got these and problem solved.
I have small fingers (size 5-6 ring) and they don't slip off.

I wear them when I type as well as when I use the touchpad.

Question:Are these Gen 1 or Gen 2?
Answer:Hi, we are currently selling Gen 2 ClawSocks.
 
Question:How long can these last if used to stream everyday?
Answer:They still work for a long time however the elasticity does stretch out fairly quickly for a frequent gamer, then you gotta pull em back down intermittently, I don’t know if this is a this product problem or more general due to it being the fingers that makes it difficult, but I do enjoy these and besides the nuisance of pulling them back taught constantly are great.
 
Question:Any suggestions on what to do to keep the sleeves from coming off? They’re easily getting loose and become inaccurate.
Answer:With these specific sleeves I have not ran into that issue, but on others I've used electrical tape and I would imagine duct tape would also be very useful.
 
Question:Can I still use these even tho I have a tempered glass on my iPhone?
Answer:It doesn't matter if it has tempered glass. But check how fast it response on the screen with tempered glass. If it has delay then you have to take out the your tempered glass for fast response when you press the screen with that thumb claw socs.
 
Question:Will these work for controller gamers like PlayStation and Xbox?
Answer:I would guess not only because they come off/loose pretty easy on smooth screen, on rubber toggles probably slow you down and be more of a nuisance, but I haven’t tried since a phone is only technology I got. I don’t think I had a slip problem using controllers so I’m curious why you would think you may need em...
 
Question:Would these work to put over motorcycle glove fingers to make them touch sensitive?
Answer:No, the ClawSocks need to be in direct contact with your skin.
