Make or Break GRIP GEL PADDED GYM LEATHER GLOVES CYCLING CYCLE BIKE TRAINING FITNESS SPORTS

Ok these are not top of the line gloves, so i wasn't expecting miracles. Not that this price but...The Look and Feel:Exactly as shown. Towelling style sweat absorbent material over the top of the thumb, exactly where you would expect to clear off those drips during a workout. Vented stretch material over the knuckles and that nice tasteful blue (matches my cycling jacket) bit that keeps the back of the fingers relatively warm when cycling.The main part of the palm is similar to a backpack, vented and slightly padded with gel pads covering the palm except in the mid palm section. Handy dandy loops make removing the gloves an absolute cinch!The Good:The fit (extra large in my case, I have hands like shovels) was perfect. The velcro is low down over my wrist joint so it does not interfere with or cover my watch. Delivery was booked for 05 April 16 and I'm writing this on the 30 March 16 - delivery was a day ago so no complaints at all there.The gel pads feel firm and will offer good protection for shifting weights in the gym - deadlift and cable work in particular. The lack of padding across the palm makes the grip easier.The Bad:I didn't buy these for the gym, I bought them for cycling. The padding is meant to cushion the hands over bumps and keep them warm. Well they do the second bit ok, but would be useless mid winter. The lack of padding in the centre of the hand means that there is actually no protection where you need it on mountain bike handlebars. The thumb is not off set to fit the actual shape of the hand like other gym gloves and this could reduce comfort by a degree.The tabs on the fingers have already become caught up in my cycle helmet - perhaps loops may be a poor choice.Advice:Check the Amazon page for all of the varieties of this glove. The options are all different and will suit different needs. I may have a small gripe about the padding but the price was right and it was after all my choice to buy them after checking all options. Some people are posting bad reviews but reading between the lines, it doesn't seem as if they did all that much research.Overall:I do not go hugely off road and hit major bumps that would require a high degree of protection. The gel is very firm but even now I feel that once worn in, these are going to be extremely comfortable indeed. Wearing them is is definitely going to be an essential requirement though. The lack of offset thumb is a contributory factor to the low cost of the gloves, but they stretch nicely so it's not a huge issue. The tabs to remove the glove, whilst getting tangled easily are a godsend in quickly removing the gloves.So in summary whilst there may be a couple of niggles, these are excellent gloves for the money and look fit to last a lot longer than the Primark cheapies (a whole £3.00) I used to have until they completely fell apart (after two years almost daily use).

Good product lasted well, Velcro comes loose after a while but definitely worth it

I bought these for my husband to use with his wheelchair as he was having issues with static. He has yet to use them for the intended purpose but says they feel comfortable on.

Purchased the gray/pink & white along with the red and black for my Fiance.I must admit,I should have got an xs instead of a small for snugger fit. My Fiance`s fit perfectly.He`s happy with them.I used them with cast iron weights without any discomfort on my hands.Good Product. Recommended to all.

We've had these for a couple of years now - they're quite durable. They've survived long and tough bike rides. Still going.

Nice gloves not great quality. Started to wear after few weeks.

Good gloves but padding has worn a abit quicker than expected done about 100miles only on road bike. also the material overthe back of the thumb has started to bobble. but for the price i think 4 stars is still worth it providing it stays intact

Nice cheap pair of gloves with a little bit of gel in the palms. I bought them for cycling and so far they have been perfect and a nice unusual colour to make them stand out. Recommended
