These gymnastic WOD grips are built to protect your hands from ripping and calluses during high volume workouts. They are ideal for workouts that include many reps of pullups, kettlebell swings, muscle ups, deadlifts etc. (basically anything that is very abrasive against your hands!) You'll notice many athletes wearing these gymnastic WOD grips during training so that their skin doesn't rip and they can keep training for long periods. What makes these different than the competition: The tough leather makes it extremely durable for high intensity workouts. Furthermore, the oval shaped holes are designed to provide a more snug fit around the fingers, and consequently more protection. Many existing models on the market use a rectangular hole which expose the base of the fingers where calluses are most prone. Sizing: Measure the distance between the base of your fingers to the crease of your wrist see image above for more details). Small - up to 9.5cm Medium - 9.5 to 11cm Large - 11cm+

Good once they've been broken in
This is my second pair of these now - first pair lasted about a year of heavy use so they're pretty durable!They are quite stiff at first but after 4 or 5 workouts they soften and become much more flexible and comfortable.

Great quality
Used them so far on 4 WODs and they do help a lot. I used their measurement guide but still the pair was bigger than my hand. Due to their design managed to find a workaround and they fit really well after that.

Very good for crossfit wod
I have been using them for a couple of weeks now and I can I am quite satisfied with the purchase. My biggest issue was during kipping pull ups and toes to bar where the friction with the bar was getting me blisters and I didn't get them during the recent wod.I will update the review in a month time with new feedback from more trainings.Update after two years of use (25/01/19):Very satisfied with the product. They are starting to break a bit but it's normal after two years of intense use (4/5 times a week).

Correctly priced, does the job.
Decent product for the money. I had thought that they may be a bit flimsy when I first opened the packaging but they have proved to be pretty robust. The finger holes are very tight when you first start using them, but don't be tempted to cut bigger holes as the leather does give and getting them on and off after a couple of sessions becomes easy. The wrist straps are a bit cheap but do the job.

Great product!
Purchased after a few Crossfit sessions began taking their toll from pull ups and barbell work. These do an excellent job to protect and allow hands to repair.Perfect fit and felt good after a couple of wears when they loosened up as to be expected with leather, so be patient. Good grip too!Would definitely purchase again if and when these wear out... or get lost.

good for crossfit or olympic lifting
These have been brilliant after ripping off a callus Olympic lifting.Only criticism is the finger holes are a bit tight but decent comfort on a knurled bar

Delivery was smooth and communication excellent
I'm still wearing my grips in so too early to say beyond I haven't ripped for three weeks! Only issue so far seems to be that there's too much leather between the fingers for my little hands but I can appreciate the grips may need that in order not to rip across.Delivery was smooth and communication excellent

Great gloves! Soft leather but strong
Great gloves! Soft leather but strong. I've not had them long but I've used them almost daily since I bought them a couple of weeks ago and they have stopped callouses and meant I can do 4x more hanging leg raises without burning hands.
