I had some wrist pain stemming from barbell rows, bench press, overhead press, etc. As well as changing (and concentrating more on) form and wrist position, I decided it was time to invest in some wrist wraps for the sake of longevity. My father had bought a pair of Stoic wraps a few years ago, and thought that I would eventually get the same brand myself. However, I previously received a pair of Rip Toned straps as a gift, and was impressed with their quality. So when I saw these, I decided to give them a try. For argument's sake, the Stoic wraps were made to be a 'less-stiff' or 'more flexible', so I have no experience with Stoic's 'extra-stiff' wraps as a more equal comparison to the Rip Toned 'stiff' wraps. Nonetheless, the build quality of the Rip Toned wraps surpassed my expectations (especially for the price). The material and stitching were incredibly strong and rigid, and I can imagine that they'll last for many years to come. Comparing them to the Stoics, the quality is very similar (when compensating for the 'rigidity' differences). In use, they are great. They're comfortable, provide a great deal of support, and virtually eliminated my wrist issues (as can be expected of wrist wraps), and I have had zero issues so far. In addition, I have been impressed by Rip Toned's customer service; they've sent me an email asking if there were any issues, and offered to rectify them. For anyone who needs a pair of wrist wraps, I highly recommend these. For only about $12, the investment is more than worth it. Read more
The wraps felt great for stability and overall very high quality Read more
These wrist wraps are the best ones I've tried so far. I ordered the harder ones and they don't allow much flex at all but that's what I wanted. What I'd really like though would be the material used with wrist hooks minus the hooks.. Read more
Bottom Line - This is a must have for anyone new to crossfit, olympic lifting, etc. who find that their wrists hurt during exercise. This product will significantly reduce, or in my case eliminate, your wrist pain during workouts. Without the wrist pain, I was able to focus more on proper form, leading to a better workout and better and quicker results. I recently joined a crossfit gym and often found myself with ailing wrists, which was primarily due to poor form caused by my poor mobility. I am new to this after all. As I was working out every other day, my wrists never really got a long enough break to fully heal, so this was an ongoing issue. I researched this product here on Amazon and decided to take the plunge and buy them. I only regret that I did not buy them sooner. I am now able to perform the exercises that would previously destroy my wrists without pain. As I mentioned above, I am now able to focus my attention on better form, allowing me to get a better workout in as opposed to constantly thinking about my wrists. With time, I believe the "proper" approach is to eventually build ones own mobility up enough to where your form is good enough to where you may not need these. But, that could take a bit of time. So, I will continue to progress there, but in the meantime, these work great. Also, I would consider myself to have small wrists and I have not had any issues with the fit. I wrap these up around my wrists tightly and get the support I need. I also have not had any issues with the blood flow to my hands as I understand this can be problematic with other similar products. Overall, these are highly recommended and I have no flaws to report. Full disclosure - I have only been using this for one week and will update if anything notable occurs. Read more
This product literally saved my life. I was having so much pain in my body. My neck, my shoulder, my wrist, my arm everything was solved after using this. No more pain anywhere. If i skip these for even one day at the gym, the pain comes back. The stiff ones and the flexible ones are both great. Read more
The media could not be loaded. When you’re lifting, the last thing you want is for the limiting factor to be something other than the muscle you’re working on. It’s incredibly frustrating to be mid-set, still feeling strong, only to have your grip or wrists give out before your target muscle does. That’s where these wrist wraps come in. I’ve been using a softer pair for a while and decided to upgrade to the stiff version this time—and wow, what a difference! The support they provide allows me to fully focus on the lift without worrying about my grip strength holding me back. I now use these wraps for every set, every workout, and they’ve become a non-negotiable part of my gym routine. That said, the stiffer material does come with some trade-offs. If they’re wrapped too tightly, you may feel slight discomfort or restricted blood flow during certain movements, but releasing the pressure between sets solves that easily. The quality is excellent—thick, sturdy, and clearly built to last. Plus, I love the color I chose; it adds a bit of style to function. While they might seem pricey for such a simple product, their durability and the advantage they provide make them well worth it. If you’re serious about lifting and tired of grip strength being the weak link in your workouts, these wrist wraps are a fantastic investment. I’ll also be reviewing some wrist straps soon, but for now, these wraps are a total game-changer! Read more
