Hi, I was wondering if they have enought support and padding in the palm to avoid callous? May be someone who uses them can answer? Thanks!

I use them three to five times per week at the gym using moderate to heavy weight, and I have zero callouses. the finger hole openings are wide which is nice so they have not ripped near the fingers like other gloves I have owned.

Yes. Functionally these gloves work great. Just be warned as the leather die bleeds onto your hands if you sweat a lot.

While the gloves are thick, I can't say that they would protect your hands from bruises from being bumped. I believe they would cushion the bump but I can't say to what degree. I really like the way they not only keep my hands warm, but they also help with arthritic pain. I personally recommend them for the stiff joints and aches of arthritis. I hope this helps.

I would honestly not use them for any workout. They are pretty uncomfortable. The fist/hit is not balanced so it comes out weird and you can even hurt your hand. Finally, they totally destroy the skin around my hands in just a few minutes. I prefer to use mexican hand/wrist bands. They really protect you and the fist/hitting is more natural and you get a better feel for it. Plus they are only like 3 bucks. Once you get the hang out of it, you can put them on in a minute.

These aren't very well padded. I'm not sure about the men's, but if they are more padded, I would go with those. Really these gloves weren't very good.

Padding is a bit less with these gloves, but that's probably the case because they are full fingered. However, I think they protect your whole hand very well.

I have a lot of pain in my wrist and in my fingers and they help me a lot at home and also driving. I wear mine while driving cause it helps with the pain and I see no reason for not doing so. One person wrote about them being too small. Make sure you measure your hand for proper size. Mine fits well. Hope this helps. John.

I used these for a brief time and thought they were okay. Wish I had tried the regular boxing gloves to compare them too. I think you may need something with more padding for use 4-5 days per week.

I would think so - they are mostly covered with a rubber coating on the palms at least.Get them one size larger than normal, if possible ... they get sweaty easy if tight.otherwise, have been great for working in the garden and doing auto repairs

They have very good padding however they are not hardcore gloves for lifting heavy weights all time so if you are not heavy duty lifter they protect you against callous . Overall awesome 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.

Thank You All for your wonderful response's! A comment to R. Cheatham..yes I did measure around the palm not including the thumb. I should have been more clear when writing my question - OOOPS! I haven't ever purchased gardening or any other glove online before - in store's only and don't have any of my gardening gloves left to check on a size...forget memory...LOL. I would really like to try these gloves they sound like they would be a dream to use. Thank You All Again

They're quite comfortable. As for long fingers, I have 3-4 inch fingers, and the small/medium size works well for me. You will likely want to get the medium/large size.

This question should be directed to the manufacturer of the glove. I puchased for a friend who has arthritis and she uses them when she plays golf. She loves the comfort and warmth they provide. They alieve stiffness, not swelling in her case.

Yes, these gloves are great for work gloves or paddle ball to avoid callous.

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 find them "true to size". Just to be certain, you could find them at a garden shop and try for yourself. For myself I buy medium. For comparison, my hand is approx. 7" from wrist to fingertips and 4" wide.

I wear them as a woman with no problem. I do have on the larger size of hands however. I wear a 8 1/2 glove size
