Just minimalistic design of exercise gloves from RIGWARL enticed me to try out. These are reasonable quality and fits wells . Padding is good and made of shiny leather type material and stretches well due to spandex. These work well for many exercises incl. biking and other fitness needs but dont think thet are really designed for heavy lifting as they tend to slip. Also it feels a little feminine imo esp. with shiny leather material choice hope the designers take a note of it unless you are targeting female only. Its still a decent product and would protect your hands.

These gym clubs are very interesting. They are very tiny and fit around your hand. They look different than all other gym gloves I’ve seen. They are comfortable to wear, and work as expected. They are well-made and durable and are holding up well. The material gives a strong grip when working out. It’s pretty thin and it’s a good value.

They're ok The padding is a bit weird and not sure how long it will hold up. The fit is nice and it protects your hands. The rubber grips pretty well.

These are nice partial gloves that I use while paddling my kayak. I get hot spots and these cover and protect the very area that is so prone to these sores. They are a little “plastic-y” but they work.

Very minimalistic gloves that do a really great job of giving good grip without the full covered glove while still giving the user the ‘feel’ of the bar they might like. Very functional for several types of exercises and so far durable. Good quality item for the price

Good for weightlifting nice grip comfortable. Good quality keeps my hands from hurting!

These RIGWARL Weight Lifting Gloves strike the perfect balance between protection, grip, and flexibility, making them an excellent choice for serious lifters who dislike full-coverage gloves. Right out of the package, they feel lightweight and breathable, with a minimalist half-palm design that protects just the right areas while keeping your hands cool.The 5mm protective pads are a standout feature—just thick enough to prevent calluses and blisters without compromising grip strength. The silicone grip material really makes a difference, reducing slippage during heavy lifts, pull-ups, and kettlebell swings. Unlike bulky gloves that feel restrictive, these offer natural hand movement while still providing solid protection where you need it most.Comfort is another big plus. The milk fiber fabric is soft, stretchy, and breathable, keeping sweat at bay even during intense workouts. They also work great with a smartwatch, so there’s no annoying bulk around the wrist interfering with fitness tracking.A couple of things to note: The extended palm coverage should be worn on the outer side, which might take a moment to get used to. Also, while these gloves are great for most strength training exercises, they’re not ideal for ultra-heavy deadlifts where some people prefer thicker padding.Final Verdict: If you want a lightweight, flexible, and breathable glove that provides targeted protection without excess bulk, these are a fantastic option. Perfect for weightlifters, CrossFit enthusiasts, and anyone looking for better grip and comfort during workouts!

When these weightlifting gloves arrived my immediate thought was, "Where's the other one?" There appeared to be only one... and it was extremely small. After scouring through the packaging for a while I finally realized that the one glove was actually two gloves. They were palm-to-palm and the sticky grip pads were adhering to each other. I peeled them apart, looked at the two very tiny specimens and thought, "There's no way these are going to do much good in the weight room."I slipped them on, which was very easy as they fit much like hosiery, and went to test them out. Before I even picked up a dumbbell, I was afraid that the lower palm coverage was going to be a pain to deal with because it hung looser than the rest of the glove. I thought for sure it would fold up and not actually help protect the meaty part of my palm. As it turns out, I fears were completely unfounded. These are actually really nice, light-weight, snug and sturdy gloves.The first workout I did with them on was all exercise bands. I figured I'd start with something that wouldn't over-stress the gloves as they still seemed a little lacking to me. Plus I still wasn't sure the bottom palm flap wasn't going to be a nuisance. The gloves handled the bands like a champ. The only thing that was a little annoying was that the fit around the outside of my hands (over the knuckles) needed to be adjusted and pulled down every now and again. No biggie.The next workout I used them for was a chest/shoulder/arms routine that only required the use of a curl bar. The palm flap didn't cause any issues. The gloves wrapped around the bar regardless of the angle I was holding the bar from. I was impressed. And the grip! Holy cow! I'm used to my old gloves where once I picked up a weight I could still adjust my grip appropriately. These didn't quite work that way. Once you had the weight(s) in you hand(s) there was not much you could do to alter the grip because the gloves held on so tightly. I'm not entirely sure if this is a good or a bad thing, but I'm just telling what I experienced. There were a few times when I felt like I didn't have the optimum hold on the curl bar and I wanted to spin the bar a little this way or that to where it would feel more natural. These gloves were not having it! I either had to put the bar down and start over, or I had to sort of toss-and-spin the bar. Either way, the bar needed to be released from the gloves in order to change the grip. I have a feeling this might change over time as the padding wears down a little, but brand new the grip was fierce.I've since used them with dumbbells and they were absolutely fine. I didn't run into the grip issue as much because generally when you pick up a dumbbell there's little reason to change its position in your hand. I also have used them to do dead hangs. Mind you I actually purchased special gloves for this particular exercise because I found regular weightlifting gloves protected my hands but they didn't have enough padding to keep my hands from aching after about 30 seconds. These gloves did really well. I did three one-minute hangs while wearing them and only on the third hang did my hands start to ache a little. That really says quite a lot.So bottom line is that these gloves don't look like much and they also seem lacking in coverage, but they truly do a great job. Sure there were a few issues, but I don't think I've ever owned a pair of workout gloves that were ideal. I will say that you absolutely should measure your hand(s) and order the size appropriate for you according to their size chart on the Amazon product page. Don't just guess because if you get a pair too large or too small it could really make using them awkward and uncomfortable.
