And smart people too! (a little exercise humor) Dumbbells require more agility than a straight bar with weights, so I was wondering if the Grip Pad would be flexible enough to work well. The pads are great: flexible, have more padding than most gloves, leave the wrists free to move and don't cause the sweating that even light gloves cause. The pads curl a bit -- when you aren't handling a weight, it allows air to circulate in your palm. They are very easy to put on and take off. If you are also doing exercises that don't need gloves - resistance bands for example - you can quickly take off the pad (also works fine if you keep the pads on). Works well with pullup and dip bars, but since my equipment already has padding, gloves/pads aren't needed. More padding + less sweating = excellent solution. Read more
This is a stellar product. If your hands need to breathe at the gym or maybe you've had infections from sweaty dirty gloves...this solves that. Also, it works for its intended purpose as I now have Spiderman like grip on anything I use these on. They're great for pull-ups and dips. You can use them for any bench bodyweight exercises that require you to grip the bench like flutter kicks, tri dips, and donkey kicks. These gloves work and they give you an extra bit of confidence because you have such a grip it's almost like an extra safety measure. I would not use these with any weights that have the etch pattern in the barbell or dumbell handholds as this will tear or shred the glove. Personal Trainer for 5 years, lost a 115 pounds and kept it off for over 10 years, and I work out 6 days a week - so my review isn't just opinion its been field tested. 😁 Read more
This is the third pair I’ve ordered. I love them, but the stitching is poor and comes apart easily. Read more
This pull up and dip gloves definitely has allowed me to do more while working out in the gym. They are definitely many versions, but this one suits me pretty good. My only complaint is that a couple weeks in to using my new gloves they started to tear. I decided to buy another pair and so far so good again, but I am concerned before how long will it rip again.

I really love this product, you can tell it as well-made. The material used is very durable and thick at the same time, though it’s very comfortable in my hand. I bought my boyfriend the same ones and they fit him comfortably as well. On him they are a little tighter and on me they are a little more loose, but I like that they fit both of us. I I like that it does not hold the smell of sweat and they’re easy to wash. The grip is really nice and I do feel that they have improved my workout. Read more
They arrived ripped in half? I debated buying another pair but I think I'll look elsewhere. After reading through more reviews, they don't seem to last very long. Read more
Nice upgrade from the square pads i used to use. I work with my hands for a living and my hands are not soft to begin with. So i like to pad my hands when working out. I have used the square pad for so long and never had an issue, but the ease of using these, comfort and convenience is such an upgrade. Got a pair for me and my son. Been using them for over a Month and they are holding up well and protects my hands even better than my old pads. Will absolutely recommend and would purchase again when needed. Read more
Super comfortable and effective. I recently switched to full finger gloves to avoid callouses from my workouts but recently my hands started getting hot and felt "claustrophobic". I didn't want to return to the cut off gloves and decided to give these a try. Two workouts in and i must say that these are better than all the gloves I've ever used. Read more
