The Weightlifting Gloves were specifically developed for athletes who want to protect their hands while maximizing their lifts and overall workout, providing maximum protection of the hands. The  pad focuses on the hand for upgraded protection and comfort while lifting. The short finger  exposes the top fingers for proper control of the bar on the static exercises performed in the weight room and provides the greatest surface contact.  An  treated coating has been added to control scent and the glove has been constructed with  layers of material and special cushioning that flex and mold with the hand.  They are machine and hand washable, air dry is recommended.Often times when an athlete is performing bicep   or any other weight training movement the hands are exposed to  due to the type of bars used in the weight room. Whether the bar it’s new or old, it’s designed to provide grip; but it comes with a cost especially when you’re performing multiple reps and  through the motion.  The hands are exposed to abrasion during this particular period and it’s up to the athlete to determine whether or not they need a weightlifting glove to prevent any injury to the hands.
