AEOLOS Leather Gymnastics Hand Grips-Great for Gymnastics,Pull up,Weight Lifting,Kettlebells and Cross Training

UPDATE 2: I have to admit, this company is honestly amazing. I first complained about my first pair of wrist grips breaking within days of buying them. They sent me a new pair. I wrote a new review and realized I ordered the wrong size and the black color stained my hands. Unexpectedly, Aeolos sent me a different pair in the correct size. I will admit, my mind about this company has changed. They really care about their customers. It isn’t about making an easy buck. For them, it’s about customer satisfaction. That is somethings hard to find these days. Bravo! Not only are my new hand grips better, my expectations for this company have gone through the roof. If you’re looking to order anything through them, I highly suggest it. UPDATE: The company read my original review about the grips ripping. They sent me a replacement. I finally used them for the first time and they work well. I ordered the black ones. They do tend to stain your hands if you sweat. So if you plan to order these, I would go with a lighter color. Also make sure to size yours just right. I ordered a small and after using these grips, I think I may be an XS. But the small works just fine. They crunch up a little bit with weights in your hands. But overall, these second set of grips have not ripped. I’ve been using them for almost a week now. If you’re looking for something to help with grips and preventing callouses on your hands, I would try these out. They’re reasonably priced and so far, work well. —————- ORIGIN POST: I was super excited for this product. I lift weights almost every day and wanted to try and prevent more calluses on my palms. But these hand grips ripped the second time I used them. They are now hanging by threads and I’m slightly upset I ordered them because now I have to order new ones.

Just completed the Crossfit 2020 OPEN with standard gym gloves when I realized I need to graduate to grips. I looked around to see what the Pros were using, googled a few brand names and watched a YouTube video before selecting grips from one of your well known competitors. The product arrived and I threw it in my gym bag with the intent on breaking them in. When I got to the gym, I was confused on how to put them on. When I finally figured it out, they just didn't "feel right" (May have been the wrong size) and the leather was on the thin side. I asked my coach about my grips when I noticed his. He was wearing the AEOLOS brand. I was immediately drawn to the thick wrist strap. Mine had something the size of a tight rope....lol I asked him about his grips and he took one off and let me examine it: Thicker leather, better fit, and a solid strap. I was sold. I got the information from him and placed an order. The Product arrived on time and as advertised. When I pulled the grips out of the package and put them on it was a perfect fit. The leather was thick and those solid straps and Velcro made your product a winner. My only regret is not purchasing AEOLOS first..... especially since I forked out $45 for the Pro Endorsed Widely Known Brand. AEOLOS is a STEAL under $20. Great Product

Will take some breaking in, but right out of the bag they are serving their purpose. My hands always get chewed up during any bar exercise in CrossFit. Only used once so far, but they protected my hands and no bandaids were needed after. I would recommend. Time will tell on the quality, but they should last for a while.

These gloves are great for weightlifting in general (not just crossfit). I felt that my old standard weightlifting gloves reduced my grip strength and constricted the base of my wrist. I started lifting without gloves, but then my hands were getting all ruff. Since these have no padding your hand muscles get to do the work they were intended to do. The gloves also prevent that slippery feeling you get from sweaty palms. I now have greater grip strength and I'm lifting heavier with the confidence that my grip won't slip. They look pretty cool too! CON: They aren't labeled left or right so you have to pay attention to which is which. As they break in you'll be able to tell because they form to the shape of your hand and will feel odd on the wrong hand. Plus the wrist strap process will be different. The inner wrist strap also bunches up if you have skinny wrists. The elastic band keeps it in place pretty well, however. Overall great purchase over traditional gloves. I like them so much that I'm going to buy another set in case they break like to ones in the other review photos. I see no signs of mine breaking and it's been 3 weeks (I use them 5 times a week).

The grips are decent and provide some protection during workouts, but they took some time to get comfortable.

Did not like

Normally I use gloves in the gym. Say what you want, buy the ladies like softer hands over hands full of calluses. Some bars have very aggressive knurling. Those bars tend to tear my hands to shreds. Thus, I wear gloves. Even over time, the gloves get pretty torn up. And no matter how much padding, my hands still get torn up a bit. After some research, I found these gloves. Weirdest looking things I have ever seen. But they made sense, so I bought them. Best decision ever! It takes 3-5 workout session for these to be broken in. They are a bit stiff and cumbersome at first. But after a few days, they soften right up. The leather protects my hands way more than any gloves I've ever had. I think the reason for this is that they are open. You're hands no sweat like they do in gloves. So your skin isn't as damp and prone to damage like they are enclosed in traditional gloves. If I'm using ropes, or doing legs, its super simple to slide your finger out and even get more air. They just hand on your wrist for when you need them again. The quality seems excellent and I've had these for about a year now. They work great and I'd recommend these to anyone!

I used them one time and they broke on my first pull up 😞 if you see they are not used at all !

La piel es gruesa y firme al principio, pero se en suaviza con el uso. Se ven pro en el gym

bonne qualité mais épais et forme un. pli

Produto Espectacular, examente igual.

They’re too big

Bought this product around 6 months ago. Been great and Comfortable. Unfortunately the leather has split between the finger holes and has torn on the wrist support. How do I claim the replacement product?
