Amazon.com Product Description
Boost your lifting performance without sacrificing comfort with this pair of neoprene padded lifting straps. Measuring 21 inches long and 1.5 inches wide, each strap offers 5 mm of foam padding to protect your hands during lifting. As a result, your hands won't develop nasty calluses as you perform pull-ups, seated rows, and other upper body exercises. Even better, the straps wrap tightly around the bar to increase traction and maximize gripping strength, helping you lift more weight than ever before. A must for lifters trying to develop strength or add bulk, the 1.5-inch wide straps offer 20 percent more gripping area than typical straps.

Customer Reviews

Overall a good product
This product is pretty much just how it is listed. Works well and doesn't slip, no real complaints. Doesn't look as good as it does in the photo though.

The perfect straps for those who enjoy severe discomfort
In the years I've been lifting, whenever I used my wrist straps I would think to myself, "Deadlifting heavy iron is enjoyable and all, but wouldn't the whole endeavor be more fun if these straps carved deep abrasions into my wrists?" Now that the Harbinger Neoprene Padded Lifting Straps have come into my life, I no longer have to wonder about how good lifting can be. My prior wrist straps merely helped me maintain my grip on the barbell. But the inspired designers of the Harbinger Neoprene Padded Lifting Straps have taken lifting to the next level by placing jagged, unfinished seams at the very point where the strap is pressed against your outer wrist. Now for days after your workout you have a somatic reminder of how much weight you lifted: the shredded skin on your wrist. Having experienced the sublime pleasure of toiling to raise a barbell as the Harbinger Neoprene Padded Lifting Straps excavated the dermis along my radiocarpal joint, I don't think I could ever go back to wrist straps which don't cause me bodily harm.

Solid straps
These are good straps. The neoprene provides good wrist padding and is durably sewn on to the thick ballistic nylon straps. Great for heavy curls and deadlifts. Just remember to train your grip if you use straps regularly! These take some breaking in until they adjust freely, but I believe that is because of their durable construction (like Carhartt pants) rather than a design flaw.
