New Silicone Gloves

Best gloves I've ever had. I have very sensitive skin and usually my palms are on fire after my workout. After today's workout my hands feel great and the gloves made using resistance bands and handles MUCH more comfortable to hold. I was able to do more reps because nothing was digging in to my hands. They are soft, lightweight, and fit as described.

10/10 - favorite gloves thus far. Helpful for a weak grip/wrist stability. I will be getting more colors

Mava Sports Team: Thank you you for your prompt reply. I received the email about your message in my message box . However I am unable to read the entirety of your post nor am I able to reply. I am more than happy to provide you with any details about the gloves I currently own. Please advise.Pro: The design and fit of these gloves are amazing. The open hand design keeps you comfortable and it feels more lightweight than regular gloves. The wrist straps lend excellent support for lifting . And most importantly these gloves provide immense protection for your hands. The leather padding on the palm is great.Con: However, as a crossfitter that does a lot of bar work (pull up bars and barbells) there seems to be some durability issues. First, the silicon gripping tends to flake off easy . I first noticed this during high reps on a pull-up bar. If this glove grinds on the bar it'll grind off the silicon grip. Despite that, the leather padding holds up and it's not a huge deal. The biggest issue may be the stitching. I received these gloves on June 10th and today , Sept. 22nd, the stitching between the finger grips and the leather palms are pulling apart . Granted these gloves get used 3-5x a week, I imagined they would be designed to be more durable . I'll probably have to replace these gloves soon.Despite how well they work, I'm not sure having to replace these gloves every few months is practical at this price point. It'll add up quickly.Great purchase if you doing the classic gym lifting program . Not sure that they last long enough for Crossfit gloves. Which maybe too bad because they are so good .To be fair I have not contacted customer support on this issue bc I don't feel I have a case . However, I contacted them before about a prior issue last spring and they were excellent.

I Crossfit 4-5 times a week and have my own pull up bar at home I work on. These gloves are the best I've ever tried. The wrist wraps are an added bonus I didn't even think about when I first ordered. I used to use leather weight lifting gloves and Id still get calluses and rip but with these I don't rip and all calluses are invisible now. I love the amazing grip. I can do more unbroken toes to bar and pull-ups (all kinds: butterfly, kipping, and strict) than with my other basic leather weight lifting gloves. My deadlifts and overhead barbell movements have improved due to the built in wrist wraps. Even to my surprise they are good for HSPU's! I read some of the reviews before buying as I've never used these kind of gloves before and have been ripping since the last Murph and needed something better to protect my palms and was afraid they would fall apart but many reviews were high so I decided to try and I'm glad I did. I've waited almost a month of 4-5 days a week of heavy usage before writing this review. I have to say that I'm very happy with these gloves and will replace them with another pair when the time comes. Also, I live in a very hot area and the box I go to has no air, just fans, so a lot of sweating but these stay on and don't slip off with sweat as the basic weight lifting gloves did. Love these!!! Everyone always rips/proud of their calluses, but I'm not a proud person that way and want to have nice hands!!!

Good for the Gym 🏋️‍♂️ 💪

I had to return my initial order of the cross-training gloves that did not have the center hand strap. I ordered a medium based on the chart provided. My hand measures exactly 8" in circumference with hand splayed, right in the middle of the Medium sizing. However, and this is a biggie, it needs to include wrist measurement too. While it covered my hands well, the velcro on the wrist straps have to hit in the exact perfect spots to secure your wrists. If your wrists are too big, they won't hit right and may have the velcro rubbing on your skin.My initial thought was to go with a large since that is what I would usually get, and was wondering about the wrist strap measurements. So, if you're wondering too, go with your gut and order close to your usual glove size.Now that I've got these in the large, they are working great. The wrist straps really help with support on parallel bars and while the palm part is a bit big, I prefer that to too small. I even like the hand back strap better than on the other set which did not have. My calluses that I initially got are definitely minimized and hopefully will go away.I took off one star because the only thing I don't like is that there is nothing around my thumb area and working on bar exercises, it would be nice to have something protect that bit above the thumb. But I still highly recommend!UPDATE: They were working fine until the stitching started coming out of the right glove. Began two weeks before Thanksgiving so I had them a little more than a month; three 45-min workouts a week. It's the stitching that secured the leather to the neoprene along the outside edge. The hole got bigger since then because I kept using them. They still protect my hands and provide good wrist support. I wouldn't count on those non-slip things much either, they're starting to peel away, but for what I do, I don't think they matter much. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt since I think the thread was bad. The logo patch also has some popped stitches and there's no reason for that to happen. Thankfully I sew and will try to close up the hole again.Soooo - I would order them again, but if I had to reorder them every 2 months, that would get really pricey.If the Mava people read these - please switch the velcro patches. The hook ones should be where the loops are and vice versa. That way, if it doesn't quite meet on the first wrap, the soft loop is against your skin. And, if the second wrap leaves some exposed, the hook is not out to perhaps catch on your hair or clothes (my experience).
