Razer, the famed Singapore-American technology company, has released one of the most peculiar gaming aids we’ve ever seen: the Razer Gaming Finger Sleeve.
These non-slip fabric sleeves will help minimize any finger sweat, so you’ll never select the wrong item or have to constantly clean your smartphone screen while battling teenagers online.
According to Mashable, though it may seem silly to most of us, serious e-sports gamers may appreciate the new offering. Plus, with video game streamers making millions on sites like Twitch, it does seem that online gaming’s a bigger deal than once thought.

It’s unclear if you’ll be able to use regular socks to do the job, but with how popular Razer’s products are, it wouldn’t be too surprising if these funky-looking thumb sleeves end up flying off shelves.
Said to be “lightweight and breathable” while ensuring “high-sensitivity fabric” follows your exact movements, these finger sleeves retail for US$9.99 a pair.
And if you’re really serious, get a pair for your index fingers as well.
