Bear KompleX 2-3 Hole Carbon Hand Grips for Weight Lifting, Cross Training and Gymnastics, Durable Workout Grips with Wrist Wraps, Comfortable Lifting Straps & Workout for Gymnastic Bars

I'll start off by saying that I've tried quite a few hand grips on Amazon. These are by far the most superior grips that I've tried! They provide great protection, but initially you might feel a little discomfort from pull-up bar workouts if your hands aren't already somewhat toughened up. Otherwise, your hands will get used to these over time. These grips (3 hole version) adequately cover all of your callus areas and is cut in a way that pretty much covers your entire palm as long as you put the correct one on each hand. I don't believe they are marked left and right as I cannot find any markings, but the slightly angled cut should go towards your thumb side. It will make more sense when you put them on and see how they cover your hands. The carbon/leather material provides great grip and also allows the hands to turn around the bar without sticking. So, these are really nice for exercises such as muscle-ups and any other movement that requires some spinning around the bar. You do not need to use chalk with these grips as both the grip and protection is the best I've encountered so far (I've tried 5 different types of grips). I've done about 6 pull-up bar/calisthenics workouts so far with these grips and they seem to be holding up really nicely, even with moves that require releasing and grabbing the pull-up bar again. The fit is great, but get one size up if you like having the dowel effect, which put even less friction on your hands. Otherwise, your normal size works just fine and I don't think you'll be disappointed either way! I definitely plan to stick with these going forward. Fantastic product!!!

I joined CrossFit six months ago, and I held off on buying extra gear like these cribs, because I didn’t think I needed them. I realize how much they improve the quality of your work out by having them. You focus less on how much your hands hurt or about tearing your hands while on the rig. The leather protects your hands in addition to providing additional grip to the bar. The quality of my workout has increased since I started using this and I’m getting closer to completing bar muscle ups.

Great grips, use them exclusively for deadlifts. No degradation issue and good wrist support.

These Bear KompleX grips are great for protecting your hands during pull-ups and other CrossFit workouts! They’re super comfortable and provide solid grip, which helps prevent rips and blisters. The wrist wraps are a nice bonus for extra support. Only thing I’d change is that they take a little time to break in, but overall, they’re definitely worth it for anyone looking to improve their grip and protect their hands during intense workouts.

Just what I need for CrossFit

I personally love these grips! I had the regular material leather 2 hole grips from bear Complex previously and was blown away from the comfort of these carbon 3 hole grips. I use them almost daily on my training basis. I did however already tear some of the material on one of the grips, which was disappointing because I have only had them for a short time. But this did not make me think any less of the grip!! I am 220lbs and put these things through the ringer with both bar and ring muscle ups for volume and they have been great. They are also super comfortable to do thruster and volume snatch and any bar work on as well. Love the grips, wish I had more!!!!!

awesome product to reduce blisters and calluses. easy to use and move around depending on the multiple workouts you are doing. I use primarily during crossfit workouts.

I was looking for grips for an upcoming competition. I have always wanted to try BearKomplex's carbon fiber grips. Unfortunately I bought their Carbon grips which are maybe Carbon colored but not Carbon fiber. If you want the carbon fiber grips get the black diamond ones. The grips seem just fine and I have never heard a bad word about bear komplex grips. I will send mine back and get the real carbon grips and not the carbon grips
