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.

I use them for weight lifting and weight machines and they provide a lot of padding without being lumpy or awkward. I think they would do the same for pull ups.

Which new ones are you referring to? I have the gripper ones and they're pretty good, they do provide extra grip but if you don't get them loose enough, they start to dig into the webbing between your thumb and palm. But then if you don't get them tight enough, they could fall off. They're pretty good but I can only speak for the gripper ones

There is a grip bar made of a soft material for this model. The earlier versions had a hard plastic grip bar sewed into the palm portion of the glove.

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.

Hi there Yes great grip. You can't go wrong with Harbingers gloves. I've been using them for years, same pair still in good condition and I recently bought 2 pairs from Amazon for my partner and he absolutely loves them as he lifts heavy weights. Cheers, Nancy

The grip is very good. I'm very happy with the grip and the dexterity. I've had these gloves over a year now, but I've only been through one winter. I've washed them a few times. When I do wear them, it's only for about an hour per day during my pre or post flight checks, about 15 days per month. So, my gloves get light usage. With that being said, they are in excellent condition, have held up well in storage, and I haven't had any problems. I like these gloves.

I almost forgot about those... They're 'work gloves' and though I'm a machinist/mechanical Engineer, These gloves are more for general use to prevent slipping and perhaps more applicable to carpentry, (though I don't know if carpenters would agree). It's safe to say that they're 'general use' work gloves and help prevent slipping due to oily or sweaty hands.

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.

I would not recommend this pair of gloves. Elastic band comes across the palm of your hand and hurts when lifting or doing pullups. I would recommend a full pair of workout gloves.

I have never used them for this application. But I hear of people doing that with these type of glove. I have heard stories of success with this. It would be a cheap solution at least. Give it a shot what do you have to lose?

I would compare them to leather work gloves. I can grip a ski rope or the rope handle but I have trouble picking up a dime. Hope this helps you.

The gloves are very grippy on the steer wheel. I've been using them for driving the last two weeks and they are great for that. They may be a little bulky for reaching into your pants pocket unless you have very roomy pockets. I'm able to reach into my coat pocket for my keys without any problems. I don't think you can go wrong with these gloves.

The padding are not that thick, but they do a good job of padding your palm and help with griping. I haven't notice any issues with dumbbells or barbells during my work out. Hope this help narrow you in the right direction.

Yes these are multi-purpose gloves there are perfect for weight lifting they are very comfortable and soft on your hands.

I primarily use these straps for dead lifts and rows. They work great and allow me to train well beyond my hand strength. I have used them for pull downs, but never chin ups. I would imagine they would work fine as long as the bar is low enough to get them wrapped properly. If you have to jump up to the bar you won't be able to get them on unless you used a stool or chair.

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