is it real leather? I purchased some synthetic hand grips from rogue a few months ago, but i had an allergic skin reaction.

Yes they feel like soft suede. The straps at wrists are Velcro though. They work fantastic! I have had them 5 months, they look very worn but still work great.

theyre definately not plastic but I would describe them as suede or a very soft leather. I had tried some others that were very rigid and didnt like them. For me these are the right fit. Just used them today for lifting and pullups.

The gloves are suede with no silicone or rubber, but grip has not been an issue for me. They are lightweight. In fact, it is the same glove as the Pearl Izumi I used to have.

I bought the classic a number of years ago and it was almost completely soft leather with the exception of a small area right at the wrist which was a spandex mix which helped to controllably tightened the material around the wrist when the wrist straps were used without bunching. Other than that it was double-layered leather with foam padding between the layers in the weight bearing and use palm and finger areas. Any origination marks that were on mine probably no longer apply as it was >7-8 years ago that I got it.

I believe it is what many online sellers now refer to as "PU leather", as in polyurethane, or man-made leather substitute. It looks really nice, with a finish that is somewhere between glossy and matte, and is proving to be quite durable. When I first received it, I noticed that it actually smelled like real leather due to the aniline dye that was used.

Synthetic leather. My favorite winter glove. Even in -0 weather. I do add hand warmers on the bitterest days. You actually have tactile use of your hands.

I doubt that it's real suede, but it does have good grip. These are nice gloves and they wore well.

I think it's fake leather, but it's high quality and very durable. My pair are 2 years old and look new.

I think it's real leather but not sure. It's really nice. Only thing is it gets scratched easily.

Yes, all of the materials are synthetic. No natural leather. Easy maintenance.

Hi Gabriel, it looks, feels and feels like real leather. Very well made. It just didn't fit my Coolpix 7800 as advertized. Much smaller. Be careful!

Looked and felt like leatherette as shown, Very definitely not foam, nor rubber. If they meant synthetic, then yes, but that IS what is shown. We have used these in production in Customer Service, life span is years (the one I replaced was 5 years old and showed signs of wear).

I think it is real leather. It isn't the soft kidskin leather you'd find in a pair of ladies gloves- it's more like the leather seats you'd find in a car. It is stitched, which would cause "pleather" to tear. I've had mine for about 5 months and it remains in perfect condition. If it isn't leather, it is an amazingly good imitation of it.

No it isn't real leather. It is a synthetic but It is nice, fits well and is easy to wipe down.

It feels like real leather, but I really don't think it is. It doesn't have the smell like really leather has.

The bag is made of this thread material, kinda like canvas but with more of a plastic feel.The material will cause something like a rug burn and will tear skin off if practicing without gloves.Best bag alternative?Either kofightgear (damn good bag)Outslayer bags are pretty good too with that 10 year warranty.Both are rag filled so they won't break your sons knuckles, and both are better than this bag (trust me, ripped on me after a month of use)

It feels like leather, and has held up like leather, but I can't be for sure. Just be careful, I had to re glue both arms, and one is still a bit loose, but so far so good.
