Are these gloves durable for kettlebell workouts? I'm using a cheap pair that are already rubbing off padding and the seams are coming apart in two weeks.

I use mine for kettle bell workout and have not seen any wear or tear! I also use them for rough metal barbells with no damage done to them. These gloves are great! I have now ordered two pairs for friends!

They're great for kettleball! Good grip and they hold up to heavy use. I basically wear them all through my strength workouts now, because they protect my hands so well. Getting another pair to save as backup in case I lose these!

Yes they are. That's actually what I bought them for and what I use them for. I washed them the other day in the washing machine because they were a little stinky and they came out really nice. So othere than the stitching slightly coming out in one of the fingers they seem to be pretty durable.

These are THE BEST gloves for kettle bell workouts! I have tried so many other gloves & still got blisters. These are the only gloves that keep my hands blister free & help me get better grip with the heavier kettle bell.

I've never used one but I bought mine for rowing my dinghy. They are really nice gloves, I'm really happy with them.

Hello Lovin: I have had these gloves since July, 2013, use them weekly, and have had no problem with leaking or any other problem.

I haven't had the opportunity to give the new ones a try yet so I can't say which is a better choice btwn the two. I will say that the gripper glove is definitely a great glove to incorporate into workouts when your hands get truly sore, no matter what level of experience or strength you may have.

I have never used them for this application. But I hear of people doing that with these type of glove. I have heard stories of success with this. It would be a cheap solution at least. Give it a shot what do you have to lose?

It depends on how much use the gloves get and how rough you are on them (similar to a pair of shoes). Could be several weeks to several months or more. I have a glove that has lasted 6+ months

I've had mine for about 6 months and I use them on a stairmaster machine and while lifting weights every day and I've never had any problem. When I finish my workout I alwys dry them throroughly before putting them away.

As I'm not familiar with blacksmithing gloves, I'm not sure I can answer that. They're suede and as they're very good for woodstoves (especially the long length of them), I'm not sure they'd take the beating I would imagine blacksmithing would take on them.

I have been using them to work out and I have had them ripped from my ear after dropping my phone, or it pulls the plug from my phone instead. The cord for sure isn't going to fray. As for the actual buds, they have already taken a beating. They feel very solid. You have to kind of wiggle the silicon tips off, but unless you are being really rough with them I can definitely seeing them hold up for at least that long, if not longer.

I have had mine since July last year. I work out 4-6 times a week and wear them every time. They have been great, I would buy them again. The seam by the thumb is unraveling but I have got great use out of them!

If you find out, let me know. My gloves started to come apart at the seams after light use.

I have not but I think they would hold up well. They are heavy-duty gloves.

I use them three to five times per week at the gym using moderate to heavy weight, and I have zero callouses. the finger hole openings are wide which is nice so they have not ripped near the fingers like other gloves I have owned.

sure, but i wouldn't use them for that. They probably won't last you very long if you do any serious lifting. Plus, you usually want to have the fingertips cut off for lifting to offer more breathability. Personally, i use Harbinger wrist wrap gloves for lifting (about $20), which last me several years, and have the added bonus of the wrist wrap to support the wrist when lifting really heavy weights.

The gloves feel heavy but not because of padding. I would only use them for weight lifting.

I'm still using my first pair since Feb. 2014. Some of the rubber is coming off but still usuable. I only use this for my retail work which consist mainly of stocking shelves and breaking down cardboard boxes. I love these gloves. Size small fits like glove (pun intended) on me. Hope this helps.

Hi there Yes great grip. You can't go wrong with Harbingers gloves. I've been using them for years, same pair still in good condition and I recently bought 2 pairs from Amazon for my partner and he absolutely loves them as he lifts heavy weights. Cheers, Nancy
