Dowel Lifting Straps

Straps were plenty long, but a bit rough on the grip. Other than that, very comfortable on the wrist.

Liked the wrist support, but did not feel the straps were long enough.

These are Excellent Lifting straps. PLEASE use them correctly. the reviews asking for longer straps are obviously not using them the correct way. they are designed to not have to wrap multiple times around the bar. Wrap around the bar on the side opposite from your hand. the locking dowel fits into your palm locking it in place. this is awesome because you don't spend a lot of time and effort wrapping a long strap around a bar multiple times. I can easily hold 150lb dumbbells in each hand with no grip stress using these the correct way. once again the straps are short for a reason. If used correctly they work like a charm and you spend less time trying to wrap and more time lifting.

I was disappointed by these straps at first use and could not get used to them. I was using them the wrong way and I believe that those that complain that they are too short are probably using them wrong, too. These straps go over the bar/grip and back under your hand and not the other way. Look at the video carefully. Once I put them on properly then I've had no issues at all. I can lift 125 lb. dumbbells in each hand with no risk of slipping or fingers letting go. Would definitely recommend to anyone who asks.

I really like the straps, comfortable and can use for all purpose lifts. The only thing I don't like is they're the same design for both wrists. They should be a left and right design. Mine on one wrist feels great but the other wrist the metal loop sits bad on the wrist. Other than that they'd get a 10. I'm actually having the dowel strap reversed on one strap.

Short strap on these lifting straps.

Got these after my standard Schiek straps got too old. Loved them even more, and am using them almost daily.

Comfort wasn't too bad, I didn't care much for the length on the straps though. They were too short for me, I prefer straps that you can wrap around completely. My grip would slip alot towards the end of my sets.

Great comfort, and much better than regular lifting straps. Shortness not a problem (405 on shrugs and deadlifts), could be problematic if you went a lot heavier though. No odour yet after 3 months.

comfort 10/10 ! looks 8/10

I read all the reviews and it was 50/50 on they to short and they great etc, so I took the chance since I dead lift 700+ pounds and the normal straps just arent cutting it anymore. Was excited to see these its just what I needed except like half the people said THEY ARE TO SHORT!!!! I know what im doing and how to wrap, If these were 2inches longer they would be amazing. They are good for light to semi heavy lifts but for the super heavy lifts they arent good at all. MAKE THEM LONGER PLEASE!!!

Straps are too short and they are ripping apart. Not too bad if your not going above 300-350 lbs. But if you want to go higher you should get something else. Other than that they are decent.
