What the ★ Hand Wraps | Giraffe look like in Field-Tested

Valve writes that hand-to-hand fighters prefer such wraps: they protect the knuckles and hold the wrist during a strike. These are gloves without fingers. The fabric is pulled tight around the wrist and the hand, and dark brown pads sit at the base of the fingers. Orange and brown spots with a dark edge are scattered over a light sandy ground, like the hide of a giraffe.

Wear on wraps reads in the fabric, not along an edge: scuffing settles on the creases of the hand and on the dark pads. Between 0.15 and 0.38 the ★ Hand Wraps | Giraffe leave room for a difference that makes comparing several listings worthwhile.

Where the ★ Hand Wraps | Giraffe came from

The Giraffe wraps are part of the Operation Broken Fang glove set, and Valve introduced that operation on December 3, 2020. The Snakebite Case came out on May 4, 2021, and the Recoil Case on July 4, 2022. Valve put this glove set into both as rare special items.

Getting the ★ Hand Wraps | Giraffe

The ★ Hand Wraps | Giraffe drop from the Operation Broken Fang Case, the Snakebite Case and the Recoil Case, and the wear that comes out is random. A contract takes five Covert skins of one collection and returns a random rare special item, a knife or a pair of gloves. Giraffe wraps cannot be ordered that way, so the pair you want is bought as a ready listing.

Who this wear suits

The ★ Hand Wraps | Giraffe are worth buying in Field-Tested in three cases:

• you want a spotted pair without fingers, and the giraffe coloring should be noticeable on your own hands every round;


• you would rather not pay extra for Factory New, which costs six times as much;


• your CS2 loadout is built in warm sand and brown tones.
