This soft leather thimble from Little House, Japan, has a wide comfortable elastic band that fits across the back of your finger between the your knuckles. It is stitched securely to the leather on each side but open over the back of the finger allowing your finger to bend without resistance. The white leather is supple but tough enough to resist needle pressure.
This one is reinforced and has extra leather on the finger pad
In the photo it is shown on a smaller hand and worked well, but it is wider than most thimbles and I would recommend it if you have larger hands and have trouble finding a thimble that will fit.
