Why not just wear gloves? What's the benefit of these over regular weightlifting gloves?

For me, these provided much better protection for my hands, while still letting me grip the kettlebell securely.

In my opinion, this minimalist gloves benefit is that the hands are less hot and sweat a lot less than with regular gloves that cover them all. I don't have to take them on and off over the entire trainning hour because they prevent hands suffocation.

I use these primarily for rig work: pull ups, toes to bar and then kettle bell work, rather than barbell lifting gloves.

I can tell you after ordering and using this ptoduct, that is useless and uncomfortable. It doesn't help prevent the dry skin caused by using weights.

Totally agree. It was uncomfortable and awkward. Don't recommend it for weight exercise.

I use them as is; without anything else worn inside or outside of the glove. Some people use them inside boxing gloves. However, you will need to go up a size with the boxing glove to accommodate for wearing these inside the glove. There is quite a bit of gel padding on the top and around fingers.

I would say they are too bulky. My sister has different gloves, I think they are title weighted gloves. Hers are less bulky and may work but I don't think any of these weighted gloves are meant to wear inside real boxing gloves.

I do have a little trouble with my hands so I do think the fitness gloves would be a big help. I have problems with one of my knees so I kneel on a pillow. The extra cushion helps.

No, its better then a standard weight lifting glove but less then a wrist wrap.

I believe it gives the freedom and movement of your hands while still protecting them. They don't slide around. It just feels more like your not wearing anything. Someone else may have a better answer.

I'm not familiar with the new ones sorry! But if you do Crossfit, I don't recomend any of these gloves, instead look up for Rogue Gymnastic gloves, those have worked great for me doing pull ups, T2B and weightlifting! Hope this will help you!

They do right up on me, but I have thin hands. They get the work done, but I do have to wear regular gloves underneath so that the movement of the gloves don't bother me througout the workout. Hope that helps.

At first you're not gonna get any grip, then after a little while wear, the gloves will get better with grip. If you're dealing with small nuts and bolts it might be a lil difficult to handle, because the gloves are insulated in em. It's like wearing 2 gloves. Other than that they're the most durable work gives I ever owned.

Yes, I wear these three times a week for weight training and they prevent the calluses I used to get without gloves. I have another pair that have thicker padding, but I have been choosing to wear these. They're lightweight and flexible. Cute, too. :)

I don't know. I always where gloves when I workout to keep from getting callouses. Sorry I couldn't help much. But they are working well. I went from size 15 to 16 and half inch arms in the first 3 weeks

I almost forgot about those... They're 'work gloves' and though I'm a machinist/mechanical Engineer, These gloves are more for general use to prevent slipping and perhaps more applicable to carpentry, (though I don't know if carpenters would agree). It's safe to say that they're 'general use' work gloves and help prevent slipping due to oily or sweaty hands.

As you can see from the pictures the glove material is medium thickness, with some compression. They offer some warmth and I believe would protect skin from accidentally bumping your hand lightly which might otherwise abrade your skin. No protection from heavy contact, the kind which would cause bruise. Definitely worth trying.

I use these to keep my wrist straight when I lift. I use them everyday. Would not work out without them.

I haven't had that problem, and I don't always use gloves when using the rings, it slides nicely. Of course my hands probably don't sweat as much as some and my use of the rings might be different than yours; I do not use them for gymnastics, I use them for Crossfit. I hope that helps...

my hands are 9" thumb to middle finger. I cannot fully wrap around the grip, that's also not its intent. these grips simply reduce the surface area so other muscles need to work harder. your lifts will be lighter of course, but the benefit is improving strength in other areas. these also are not a go to everyday addition to your workout, so size is a no issue Imo.

I'm sure you CAN, but that isn't what they are designed for. I would recommend getting actual weightlifting gloves with the proper grip for the bar. These are better suited for shadowboxing and kickboxing type workouts.
