Wrist Straps for Weightlifting for Maximum Grip Support - Lifting Deadlift Strap & Weight Lifting Grips Gloves for Working Out Pull Up Deadlifting & Shrugs

Picture shows them being wrapped the wrong way. Generally good quality, but too soft. These are for grip, not to avoid calluses. They are too soft/slippery to be used the way they are pictured - just to avoid contact with the bar - which would have been useful for pullups outdoors. The cut could be improved slightly - one hand often feels like it is being pulled diagonally. This isn't really a problem, but I can feel where the stitching will fail first.

Great traction no slippage

**1.5 Year Update at the end**I'm writing this review after about a week of using these straps, and my first impressions are that they are pretty good quality and do what they're supposed to do well. Before going into more depth, I want to clarify that I bought these just for back accessory lifts, mainly lat pulldowns and rows, both single hand and dual hand movements. I reached a point where I started maxing out machines and the limitation I encountered was my grip not being strong enough to hold the weight throughout the movements, and these grips more than solved that issue. Once I started using these grips, not only did I have an easier time doing movements, but my grip and calluses were no longer being tortured as I was working out, and after deciding to use them for other lifts, I realized that I could do significantly more weight than I previously could.Going into more depth, the quality of the leather is good, and the quality of the padding around the wrist when worn is alright. My one gripe with these straps is that when your doing movements using the grip in reverse as a tightly wrapped hook, and you release your hand grip slightly so that more tension can go through your wrist rather than your hand, the velcro portion of the strap that sits outside of the padding begins to dig into the skin and bone where the base of your thumb meets your wrist. Although this pain is definitely better than the torture my fingers and calluses endured before, I'd rather not have any pain beyond the tension endured by the wrists, and I feel this could be solved by adding a thicker padding in that area. My last issue with the leather straps is that whatever products were used on the leather itself, begin to come off if you happen to sweat on or get the straps wet, and will stain your clothing.Besides my two issues with the product, I would definitely recommend getting these straps for your lifts, they are great overall. Just don't get the leather version unless you dont care about staining your clothing!**UPDATE**So I’ve had these straps for almost two years now, and after constant use I can confidently reassure that these straps are great, HOWEVER there is one issue. I’d first like to provide some user tips as I see some other reviews agreeing with my previous point about the buckle/velcro strap hurting your hands; first, you should always wear the straps with the metal buckle below your pinky, not your thumb, and as you use the straps the padding will soften and the velcro portion will sink into the padding.The only quality issue I have had so far is the stitching, which after constant use will begin to fray and split until you’re pulling it all out yourself. You can expect this to happen after about 3-8 months of use, depending on how often you use them. I’ve even restitched them myself just to have the same issue occur and it can be irritating as the glue between the leather begins to soak up mositure, loosen and end up on your hands. Although this is understandable since unless you use wire to stitch these its an unavoidable problem and even then the wire would tear up the leather. Some people may consider this a big problem but thats how its going to be with any straps made of leather.With all of the stitching gone and even having one of the pads falling out from the leather, I still use them every time I lift, and they continue to work just fine. Do they look great like this? Maybe not for some people, but I like to think of it as them showing the work I’ve put in, and they have developed quite the nice patina as a result.Overall I would definitely still recommend these, just don’t be too surprised when they start to show wear and use them properly, if you do that you’ll be satisfied

I have used more than 5+ gloves for weight lifting, these are the best by far, most comfortable and most functional as well, I like the wrist support as well. You can slide this one on a barbell, I don't get callouses with these where with other gloves I would still get them.

I love these for the hand protection. They are very easy to use, and quite durable. I bought a second pair for my coworker. Slightly pricer than I thought. Good product overall

Straps are great, the leather is soft and sturdy. Can fit a small wrist at its tightest. The only downside is that the Velcro doesn’t stick anymore after a year of use.

I had a friend suggest trying Versa Gripps with my barbell lifting to help my grip on the bar, and to help prevent calluses. I didn't want to spend the money on Versa Gripps—I found these as an alternate/dupe with a much better price point. GAME CHANGER! Nice durable quality...I'll have these for a lifetime! My only complaint is that I'm a women with small wrists and I have them fitted to the end of the usable Velcro. The sizing tabs could be reduced if these came in two wrist sizes...suggestion for brand is S/M, M/L, L/XL. I will not do another deadlift without these!

I prefer this over other types of straps because I feel less of my grip strength being strained while doing toe to bar ab exercises, barbell rows and deadlifts.
