I made a pattern for sewing RSI wrist braces based on @cwebber and my needs. You can find that here: https://mlemmer.org/blog/RSIgloves/
Most fabric stores that have spandex fabric have it in multiple colors (and possibly patterns) to choose from.
Now, caveats of that based on your post:
- One of the main reasons I wrote my pattern is because the style of brace that you've pictured is too rigid for our needs, we only needed compression not stabilization with metal etc. So depending on your needs my pattern might be too minimal
- My pattern focuses on the wrists and doesn't have any support/compression for the thumb
- If you were to make it in linen, you would need to use laces or velcro to get the compression since linen is a woven fabric and doesn't stretch
- You can do some embroidery on the spandex style compression gloves, but you need use a stitch that will stretch with the fabric so you don't lose the compression.
