4.0 out of 5 stars
Good quality, but medium was too small, October 28, 2006
These gloves are of a good quality, though have a strong smell (leather dye, I assume). I am using them almost daily, and they cusion palms and fingers nicely. The velcro on the back is slightly uncomfortable, probably due to the size being too small. I ordered gloves in medium size, but they are too small for my relatively small hands. If you think you need medium, you, probably, should order large. I am giving 4 stars for the size issue, but the quality and price combination is very good.

Great for weightlifting, August 15, 2007
This review is from: Harbinger 155 Power StretchBack Glove (Black) (Sports)
I prefer a weightlifting glove that protects the hands from the normal abrasions of handling the bars and barbells, but doesn't have excessive padding that interferes with getting a good grip, or a wrist strap to interfere with the wrist's range of motion. I like to lift with a basic glove. I normally prefer a 100% leather glove, but decided to give these a try.
The only significant difference between these and a 100% leather is the back of the glove; it is made of a stretchable fabric. This fabric is not the mesh often found on inexpensive gloves, but a quality material that provides a good form-fit. If the glove is the proper size, the fit is snug, but not too tight. The fit is superior to the 100% leather gloves I have used.
The palm has extra leather padding, but not too much. My fingers can grip olympic bars, curl bars, and contour dumbells with the gloves on.
The overall construction of the gloves is pretty good. There is very little unevenness in construction, which is fairly common in most weightlifting gloves.
Despite the reasonable price, these gloves are of good quality. I could afford more, but these gloves fit my needs perfectly.

just what I was looking for, March 5, 2008
This review is from: Harbinger 155 Power StretchBack Glove (Black) (Sports)
These are my fourth pair of weightlifting gloves. I lift 3x/wk, but not heavy weights. These are perfect. Good stretch, enough padding, nice fit.
