I'll admit that I could have read the product description a little better, but to be honest there was no obvious description of whether this was 2-2.5 pound weights or 2-5 pound weights. I went to multiple sites and nowhere did it specify whether "the pair" was 5 pounds or whether it was "a pair" of 5 pound weights.
Well, it's a combined weight of 5 pounds, and if you have the foresight to check the shipping weight that will make it clear.

The other thing is these don't fit well on wrists, which is what I specifically purchased them for. I wanted weights that would allow hand mobility when running on the treadmill, this doesn't really cut it. By the nature of the design you can't get them that snug so they jostle around on your arm when running, they are also bulky as hell.

There might be an alternative out there, but if you are looking for some wrist weights I'd look somewhere else.

it's hard to find weighted gloves that have weight more than 1 lbs each hand. these gloves are pretty good. and i can use it for legs exercise too! pretty bulky and the thumb holes are not very comfortable. but they are worth it for the price that amazon offer!

The thumb grip is a nice addition but the weights are a little loose on the wrist. Perhaps a ring to tension the velcro on would ensure a snug fit. Aside from that design quirk, they work and provide good resistance without injury. They work better as ankle weights but are adequate for wrist weights if erratic movements are minimized.

Just what I needed ---I use a cross country ski machine I wanted weights that I could use on my arms or legs--works perfect fo me!
