They only had the cheap cotton ones in stock. I actually like them the best, easiest to grip on, they just don't last long!

I'm hoping these last me longer than the last pair, 1 week! :mad:

How the heck are you gripping the bar?? I only use the straps as a layer between my hands and the bar. I dont wrap them around the bar or rely on them to aid in lifts.

Standard grip.

Sorry but no way I'm lifting over 600 on shrugs w/o straps :o
