How are these gloves for doing things like dead lifts and pullups? Do they help in maintaining a good grip on the bar? Thanks

These aren't really made to increase your grip. They work good with curl bars and dumbells and I have done pull ups with them without much of a problem. You won't GAIN grip with these though

You can hold a good grip. The strap is also very helpful. Like I said in my review the smell of them is a total disadvantage. You literary have to wash them almost every other day. Such an inconvenience!!I would suggest looking at other options.

The gloves work fine for these purposes. The gloves provide a good grip. The real problem with the gloves is the seams. They will tear at the seams in a relatively short period of time. For deadlifts, though, you are far better off with a set of deadlift straps or hooks. They last much longer and work far better than gloves.

Gloves are for pushing movements. You need Deadlift Straps, which you wrapped the bar with for pulling movements. I prefer the ones with a padded wrist wrap

Yes. I've actually used them alot for pullups and deadlifts and they work great.

Yes excellent gloves. Have ordered 3 pairs. They have each lasted over 6 to 8 months - I use them 6 days a week in gym. Basically only get new ones due to them getting smelly

I don't know. I always where gloves when I workout to keep from getting callouses. Sorry I couldn't help much. But they are working well. I went from size 15 to 16 and half inch arms in the first 3 weeks

I do not have the Fit Four Anti-Ripper gloves to compare, but these gloves seem to be more geared towards reducing cuts and blisters on your hands rather then providing a better grip. I find these gloves slip on my hands, a thumb strap would make them better, but for pull-ups and light bar work, they suit my needs.

I am a Crossfitter and that's exactly what I use them for. No need to chalk up 10 times and my girlfriend appreciates a guy without callouses and blood all over his hands. I have been purchasing 2 pair/year for the last 3 years, I hope they don't ever stop making these. And the full finger just makes all of the difference in grip to me. Just my humble opinion here. Good luck!

I never really noticed. Why does that matter? You're working out and they feel comfortable and properly cushion your hand. The only thing I've seen is that the edges around the wrist area absorb a little sweat. I use the natural coloured one and would not have noticed this as much with the black gloves but I still like the colour I chose. :)

Yes. They are very decent for training and hitting the bags, even sparring. They just hurt my fingers when worn with MMA gloves.

Pretty durable. Harbinger has a great rep for making gloves that last 6-12 months. My version of the gloves (male version) have lasted as much as 18-24 with only minor stitching issues after that long. I'd recommend them for any serious lifter.

You might find the length of the bar ends to be a little bit on the short side. Personally I have medium hands and have the small grip. The bar ends seemed small at first, but now I love them as they are just big enough for my needs. These are the most comfortable grips that I have ever used.

These work especially well for assisted pull-ups and dips. I've used them for resistance exercises as well; push-ups, deadlifts etc. well worth the purchase as far as I'm concerned...

They do right up on me, but I have thin hands. They get the work done, but I do have to wear regular gloves underneath so that the movement of the gloves don't bother me througout the workout. Hope that helps.

I've never used one but I bought mine for rowing my dinghy. They are really nice gloves, I'm really happy with them.

yes, they have a good amount of grip for the price you are getting them. i would recommend these gloves if you're looking for a cheaper price and they will last if you take care of them.

I used them just for riding my motorcycle. I used them and nice pair of leather gloves. I repurchased just to have them again. I live in Oklahoma and was a 12month rider. As my circulation has changed in cold my fingers are ice my hands. They are an integral part of my cold weather gear. I hope I helped. I seen the other responses. I wonder what went wrong. I was extremely impressed with them.

Padding is on the knuckle side. Yes, I sometimes use them as weight lifting gloves.

i usually use them on heavy bench press days and sometimes on power cleans. They work good for that. If you just do not want your wrist to bend too much, then these are for you.

Before I responded I grab them out of my gym bag and held them in my hand. The rows of foam padding on the fingers would make it awkward for gripping things such as a rock. You can tell this glove was designed for gripping a bar. would not recommend for Rock climbing.
