PRGear WOD Grips Gloves | Original | Perfekt protection for your workout - For power lifting, pull-ups, Body building, Fitness and all other types of functional training | Innen neoprene for excellent grip and protection

These gloves are well made but they were not right for me...I have quite large hands and I found the large to be a bit too big for my hands... They didn't feel 'snug' enough, like I needed more support/padding for the inside of my knuckles. So, I then ordered the medium & small size of these grip gloves. The medium size fit me really well and so did the small size surprisingly. When doing pull-ups with both the medium and small size gloves I felt my hands start to hurt after doing 5-8 pull-ups. I believe this to be because the gloves don't have much padding inside the glove part where you grip the bar or maybe it could be something else? But regardless my hands started to hurt when doing pull-ups in these gloves. I do have some York weight lifting gloves that are nice and thick (I bought them years ago in a weights/sports shop) and they give me no pain when I am doing pull-ups in them and they also have a great grip. When I did, do my pull-ups without any gloves there was no pain but calla-sis did develop on my hands after doing pull-ups daily for over a month so if you do pull-ups regularly these gloves my not be right for you but some sort of protection may be needed to stop your hands from getting calla-sis (hardening of the skin). Hope this helps :O)

These gloves didn't arrive in anything special, but were securely packed, and need to be left to air out for half a day to start with due to their initial odour. After the new smell has gone away, throw them in the washing machine under the fine wash setting before using them, just to be on the safe side.First impression: neat seams, soft material, lustrous textured palm area, carefully sewn finger holes and with no annoying inner seams when putting them on. The sizes are true to the description. Each glove is very light, weighing only 11 grams. I also really like how decent the grip is. Visually, I have some problem with over-the-top print of the manufacturer's name over the whole back of the hand, but the functionality and the remarkably secure grip definitely makes up for this. The palms are protected up to the base of the thumb and they prevent any painful calluses or blisters.I used the gloves 3 - 4 times a week for 4 weeks for Cross Fit and they get points for how practical and quick they are to get on and off, the ability to unrestrictedly move your fingers and hands, the pleasant feel when wearing them, as well as the "Cabrio Version's" low heat build up in comparison to regular gloves. I also used them around the house or in the garden, when heavy or sharp-edged things have to be moved.The value for money is more than decent. I've already had much more expensive, complete gloves that weren't washable.The price is 17.90 EU at the time of writing.

Who doesn't know the feeling of doing a mad workout in the gym, but getting sweaty hands under your gloves. Never again! I don't ever want to be without them. The only thing is that their appearance will take some getting used to. Despite that, a definite 5 stars from me.
