Bionic Men's PerformanceGrip w/ NaturalFit Technology Full Finger Fitness Gloves, Black (PAIR)

I am updating my review. My first review was after having the gloves for two months. Now I have had them for two years, and still have had no problems with them. They seem to be a good product. They are comfortable, grip well, and are not ripping. I mostly wanted a full finger glove to minimize germs/viruses in a big box gym. Some reviewers have cited rips, but I wonder if this may be due to the amount of weight lifted. The more weight, the greater the friction and stress on the glove. I have had no problems, but I chest press only 165, and curl 70 to give you an idea. If you are a moderate lifter there should be no problem. Again, this seems to be a very good product for all of the reasons other reviewers have reported.

Used 3 days per week for approximately 1 hour per training session. After only 1 week of use, thread was already coming loose on the right pinkie finger. Within 6 months, there were holes in the left index and left middle finger tips. Poor quality.

If you are a soccer mom that plans on lifting light weights twice a week, this is a great product with you in mind. I, on the other hand, am a 20 something year old man who lifts moderate to heavy weight 5 days a week. Under that stress, these gloves started to fall apart within 2 weeks of use. After several months of use, there are huge holes and whole parts of my palm and fingers exposed. The stitching did not hold up at all.The good thing is that even in its completely unacceptable state of disrepair, it HAS protected my hands reasonably well.

Wanted full fingered gloves with padding for lifting. These did the job. Had them since March and no holes or tears yet. I've even washed and dried them, no shrinkage. Durable, comfy, and stylish. I plan to wear them this winter to do some mountain biking. Only drawback is that the light colored palm gets really dirty really quickly.

I got these because half finger gloves were causing my middle and ring finger to bleed. After trying these, I don't want to use any other gloves. I use these while using dumbbells. They are comfortable and haven't had any issues since using these. Great buy for me.

These gloves are trash. They started ripping in the seams after 2 weeks of mild use. NOT WORTH THE MONEY. TOTAL WASTE!!!

While I very much liked the look, fit and feel of these gloves. They did NOT last. I purchased them for general protection and gripping for light crossfit workouts. This was mostly cardio/metabolic type crossfit with kettle-bell being the only weight lifting. Within 3 months (or about 36 usages) - the wrist strap starting tearing away from the glove. After 4 months - they were useless - the seams at the thumbs to wrist area were totally gone, and the lower palm to wrist area was also gone. The back and finger pad areas were still fine - but the gloves could not be put on and worn without exposing a lot of my plam and upper wrist area. Last attempt at putting them on just tore the remaing areas open.Since then I have gotten a set of economical gloves (about 1/3 the cost) - and they are doing well (2 months so far).

These are my favorite gloves for rowing and elliptical. Traditional part-finger gloves struggle in those uses, since the glove edge rolls up, creating a thick ridge that bites into the fingers uncomfortably for long use. Since these gloves have no edge, that doesn't happen. These gloves give a comfortable, secure, and natural-feeling grip. The glove's "grippy ribs" took a little getting used to, but are smaller and more comfortable than the rolled glove edges of part-fingered gloves.For this same reason (no "glove edge bite"), they are also pretty good for short-duration high force pulling movements like chin-ups, heavy curls or rows. But it's a nuisance to switch out gloves for specific movements, unless you're pretty intense with your regimen. And even for these high force movements, I often miss the thicker padding of Harbinger's best gloves.I only tried these a couple-few times for general weight-lifting. There, these gloves are not my favorite. The grippy ribs press into the hands too much with the heavy force of weights -- you can tolerate it for a set or two, but it gets old over a whole work-out. Also, the gloves lack the broad padding I prefer for weightlifting.Durability-wise, they've been great. I've had the same pair of these for around 7800 minutes of use so far, and they have held up amazingly well.Per-use ratings:=============Rowing -- 5 starsElliptical -- 4-5 starsHigh-force Pulling Motions (Chin-ups, Heavy Curls, etc.) -- 4 stars (see notes above)Weight-Lifting, general -- 2-3 starsPower-Lifting -- 1 starOlympic Lifting -- 2 star (poor for high force grinding the grip-ribs in, but some advantage from the enhanced grip)Heavy Bodybuilding -- 2 star (same notes as Olympic lifting)
