★ Hand Wraps | Badlands (Field-Tested)

The ★ Hand Wraps | Badlands in Field-Tested (FT) span floats 0.15 to 0.38. Their rank is Extraordinary, with the star. Both the Glove Case and the Operation Hydra Case hold them.

What the ★ Hand Wraps | Badlands look like

The camouflage is made of orange, sand and yellow patches with dark olive and brown swirls. Under the wrap lies a dark khaki base with black. The pattern is large and ragged, and nothing is written on it. Valve describes the wraps as improvised protection for the hands.

In Field-Tested the wraps look worn: pale streaks lie along the edges of the fabric and on the knuckles, and the orange fades toward beige. The condition of the pair is set at drop, and the wraps do not wear down any further.
