Product Description
The Harbinger® Pro Fitness Glove is specially designed for all-purpose training and frequent lifting.
Amazon.com Product Description
Specially designed for men, this pair of Harbinger Pro gloves is ideal for all-purpose training and frequent weightlifting. The gloves are distinguished by their stretch "ventilator mesh" construction, which lets the hand and fingers bend naturally while staying cool, along with the abrasion-resistant leather on the palm, which maximizes glove wear. The gloves stay secure and snug, meanwhile, thanks to the adjustable wrist closures. And lifters will love the short finger length, which reduces unwanted bulk. Perhaps the best feature, however, is the easy-to-clean fabric, which is 100-percent machine washable and dryable. Also outfitted with wrap-around thumb cushions, the gloves are available in natural and black colors.

Ideal weightlifting gloves January 17, 2007

I've gone through several gloves over the years(whether from wear and tear or just losing them) and I've got to highlight these as quality gloves.
Weightlifting gloves don't always cover up to the middle of the fingers, so calluses form in the middle even if the bottom of the fingers don't. These glove-fingers cover up just past this section of the finger when the hand is flexed.
Also, the light breathable back limits the heat buildup from heavier gloves. Wrist wraps have never actually protected my wrists, if you can't keep your wrists straight, a wrist wrap sure as hell won't be enough to hold it for you. The marginal benefit does not justify the presence of wrist wraps and they're thankfully absent from this glove.
The leather here is soft,flexible, and PROPERLY PLACED. Avoid the other Harbinger lifting glove models at all costs, the padding seam in the thumbsection is driven straight into the bone, whereas this pad's seam runs smooth. Another nice feature is that unlike my other gloves, the material doesn't shrink in the wash, so it can be tossed into the laundry instead of having to be handwashed like most gloves. (And you need to wash lifting gloves since gyms are horrendously bacteria-ridden, in addition to the odor).
These are the best weight-lifting gloves January 5, 2007

I wish these gloves were available everywhere, and wonder why not. I've tried many kinds - and these are the best - fit great, grip well, comfortable, and protect my hands just the way I want. I bought an extra pair and fear the day I can no longer get them.

The gloves are exactly what I expected. I've always used weight room gloves and this pair is a GREAT fit. One minor problem though, the AMAZON site goes into every important question.....except one.......they don't ask for sizing info ! FITNESS GIANT had to email me for size.
My First Ever Workout Gloves October 2, 2008

I got the natural colored ones. Personally I felt they looked better.
Have been using them for a while and they have saved my hands from being all ripped up after working out with different metal bars and rope pulls. Have even used them in helping people move which in lifting some things can really hurt your hands.
One of the other reviewers mentioned a guide for measuring your hands, and I would use that as it worked perfectly for me.
The reviewer who said he has to cut out the parts between fingers, while I can kind of see why, and depending on how your hand is built you might, I have had no issues with that. They fit perfectly for me and I have had no issues with the parts between the fingers.
Also recently washed them and they came out fine and still fit perfectly. They stay in my car all the time in the Florida heat and sun and are still soft too.
Whenever these wear out I will certainly buy another pair. Have been using them pretty regularly and they have held up well so far.
Top of the Line Gloves!!!! June 26, 2009

I am a Gym Rat, working out 4+ times a week for 2 hours a day. I do about 1 hour of free weights then 1 hour of Cardio. My last pair of Harbinger Gloves were stolen from me at the Gym while I showered. They were $40 Harbinger Model 1250(Grey colored,with wrist straps). I loved those gloves, but I did not want to spend another $40 for gloves I may lose or have stolen, so I found these on Amazon for under $15(Harbinger Model 143,Natural). I am very pleased with these gloves. The color natural was better looking in person than in the pics. While these did not have wrist straps, they were as nice as the 1250 Model. Very Well Made, Great Job Amazon!!!! Comfortable and Durable. I have been buying weight lifting gloves for over 20 years, and these can hang with the best. I take a large and these were true to size. Also NO Bleeding from Dye inside the gloves that stains your hands after you sweat the first few times you use them. Also these gloves keep your hands cool while you lift, making your gloves less likely to smell of sweat after you take them off. I apply some talcum powder to my hands before I put the gloves on. And the gloves look and smell very clean. I was very impressed with the stitching, it was very obvious that these were not cheap gloves. I would expect to pay at least $30 for these gloves, not $13.49!!! So I truly felt that I got a bargain. I may just buy another pair at this price as a backup pair. So if you are on the fence about buying , and need a quality, affordable pair of workout gloves, I can't see you going wrong with these.
These gloves can be found Online or at some Sporting Goods Stores, though you won't find as cheap as Amazon is selling them for. I don't know if this is Amazon's normal price??, or if the $13.49 was just blind luck on my behalf??
I hope this review helped.
