Product Description
Stop Destroying Your Hands and Start Destroying Your Workout!
Whether you do strict pullups or kipping pull ups, can do 10 unbroken muscle ups or are working on your first, can do 100 kettle bell swings in a row or just a few... whatever type of athlete you are... none of us like to deal with blisters, callouses, or ripped palms! For those of you that leave it all in the gym, let us help you take care of your hands. We designed these leather hand grip protectors with you in mind.
We looked high and low for a company that made good quality gymnastic hand protectors and all we found were thin pieces of suede and painful flimsy wrist straps. We were so disappointed we got to work and designed our own.
Made from premium material, our hand grip protection is combined with a wrist strap that stays in place and is super comfortable. No matter what your workout looks like, these babies can take it and keep coming back for more.
Not only that but we decided that just because these were strictly palm protection doesn't mean they can't be cool so we made them in 3 snazzy colors and 3 sizes (fits both men and women) to fit any athlete from professionals to gym newbies and everyone in between.
Premium Leather Makes All the Difference
While many gymnastics grips use cheap leather that is so thick you can hardly feel the bar, ours premium leather is thin and supple like a glove. You won’t need to spend several weeks wearing them in either as they are super comfortable right out of the box.
Chalk Up the Rough Bar Side for Even More Grip
We’ve specially engineered our hand grips to help athletes stay on the bar longer and grip it harder. The inside of the grip (against your palm) is smooth and comfortable like a glove. The outside (against the bar) is rough which allows the grips to hold chalk and the bar better.
How to Measure Your Hand to Order the Correct Size
With a ruler measure you palm from the base of your middle finger to the crease of your wrist.
- Large = 4.5 inches and up
- Medium = 3.75 - 4.5 inches
- Small = 3.75 inches and below
"For Athletes by Athletes"

If you're new to movements that require gymnastic grips and aren't sure if you're going to need them alot, try these and use them till they fall apart. Then you'll know exactly what you need out of grippers. Mine still could be used quite a bit but since the layers started to separate, I used this as an opportunity to upgrade. The other pair I got for my friend are still very good condition and we bought them at the same time. I feel these were exactly priced for their worth and I'm not disappointed because I didn't expect excellent quality for a discount budget price.
I am, also, a very manly man .And yet, the my palm's skin is softer than milk skin: 1 rep... 2 rep... 3 rep... blood.
I've tried everything. I've spent, quite literally, hundred of dollars in protection for my hands, and nothing has left me satisfied. I've made some dumb purchases ( Mad Grip F50 Pro Palm Gloves, Black, Large/X-Large ), I've made more smarter purchases ( Gym Glove Alternative | ProGrips Leather Weight Lifting Grips| Black ) but they've all come with compromises: gloves are uncomfortable, and they render the grip too thick, making you loose grip strength. The ProGrips, which where the protection I settled for, chafe easily, and they soon loose their shape with sweat and use. I've even use grips akin to WOD Nation's, but they've also felt uncomfortable. Either they are too hard, or they don't mold well to the bar or ring, or there was some other thing that always bothered me.
My friends tell me I'm capricious. I tend to agree.
So, mid-WOD, I always end up abandoning my protection, finishing the WOD in great time, but with a bloodbath of blisters and scars (forbidding me to train the next day, or worse).
So I gave these a chance, and... THEY. ARE. PERFECT.
Well, not really, but I wouldn't knock a star for one caveat I will explain soon.
The WOD Nation grips feel good. They are made of soft, thin leather, which means the grips cling and mold nicely to any surface—be it bar or ring—without compromising grip strength. The grips cover a great expanse of the hand, which means that, even if they inadvertently slide as you do your reps, they'll still manage to protect the active part of your palm quite well. The Velcro fastener is welcome: the grips will remain fastened for the entire duration of the workout. And yet, they are easy to equip and unequip without touching the Velcro fastener: the leather strip is long enough so that you can pull your fingers out if your next movement is not a gymnastic movement (a switch to HSPU, for example). This is crucial to me, as I don't want to fray the grips with movements for which I don't need protection (I live in Ecuador, and the only way I can get these grips is when a family or friend travels to the states, which means I have to take care of them).
I usually limited my Gymnastic session to once a week, since I had to let my palms rest and recover. Now, I've done two sessions in three days, and my palms are mint. Rich Froning will soon bite my dust. I know it.
The one caveat I find is that the bit of leather separating the finger holes feels too thin and feeble to me. I am crossing my fingers and praying they hold for over a year. If they do, then I'll let the 5-stars untouched. If, on the other hand, they fray undone before a year, I will have to knock down a star. It all depends how much they last really, and you can't know ½ stars.
Cheers.
Buy them.
The only issue I have is with the wrist strap - it feels a little bulky, but that may ease after a few uses =)
I found these and for the price they seemed worth a chance.
Per the sizing chart if you are between sizes or close size down. I did and while they fit in the palm the wrist strap was too small. The next size up fixed the issue and I dont feel like they are too big.
The craftsmanship seems to be top notch and looks like it should hold up for some time.
They function quite well for lifting weight however if you sweat a lot like I do they will quickly soak through to the point of dripping. Adding chalk simply forms a nasty paste. Not the fault of the company but the grip quickly diminishes. The main reason for the purchase was for pull ups, lip swings and toes to bars. They hurt the hands bad. With these it is tolerable but still not great. I can tolerate that however they have very little grip when wet. I am dropping from the bar not due to fatigue but rather because I am slipping.
With all that said I feel like they are still a great product for the price. The one thing that I think could be improved is the dye they use. I got the black grips and they dye my hands blue every time I use them. Every. Single. Time. I look like I've done nasty things with a Smurf. It takes a couple days to wash off but using them every day they keep a blue hue. There is no option of an undyed version of these grips but boy I wish there was. Seriously.
All the whining aside if you are cheap like me get these grips. They are good quality and unless you like me sweat like a fat man in a Sumo match they will serve you fine. As for the dyed hands it's annoying but hey their cheap.
5 stars, highly recommend
