It's not really a splint at all; I could still bend my elbow. The ones I had, had a smallish pad which cradled the elbow right where the ulnar nerve runs. I generally wore them all day because of the protection. I just didn't realize how much I was banging that part of my elbow throughout the day until I started wearing them. They pulled on like a sock and had ribbed edges top and bottom. I wore those ones out and when I went looking for more, pre-internet, all I could find were larger ones which didn't have near as much good padding and were huge, to boot. I used to cover the others with my sleeves; no way could I do that with the later ones. Also, the later ones were flat until pulled on, so not much shape to them. I think the ones i found for your link are more like the old ones I had which worked so well. Good luck!
