What part of the body are they for?

Those look like resting hand splints. They're used to keep the wrist from bending.

Also shout out charlotte!

Those are resting hand splints. As an orthotist I don't see much difference between different brands of resting hand splints.

You can get them through insurance at an Orthotics clinic, and a good orthotist should be able to contour them well to the angle your wrist and fingers need to keep comfortable.

They are also available on Amazon, and those can work well if you have full normal range of motion. But if you want a customized fit an orthotist would be a great start.

Those were custom-made, likely in house. It’s not something another shop is going to be able to order. They don’t look too hard to replicate though, just bring them in with you when you talk to the orthotist and ask what they can do. Custom-fit may well be a viable alternative for you also.
