got a pair couple years ago love them best straps ever and i tried alot lifting weights for 42 years. wash them warm water in a bucket till black comes off, also helps break them in faster wont be as stiff.

I wish I didnt buy these. By far the worst strap ive ever used. Made of slick seat belt like material that unravels immediately when you try and lift. Total waste of money

I have had these straps for about a year now and they still have not broken in the way I would have hoped. I use them for heavy deadlifts but the stiffness is killing my wrists. I had to run over them with my truck a few times to try and loosen them up a little but they are still stiff. They were also very slick at first but eventually wore down enough to get some grip. My work better for someone who keeps the strap positioned high on their wrists.

Provide a great lock in to the bar. Also like the 2" wide material- keeps things very comfortable on the wrist and hands. They do take a little break in to be just right.

Bought these a few weeks ago, the strength is great, but they are very slick. It is hard to hold the bar. Almost better off barehanding it. They leave a little black residue the first few times you use them. 500+ weight is difficult to keep a grip on.

its more heavy duty than you would expect. When you first pull it out of the package you might think its too rigid and stiff. after one session, they were broke in and worked great. the 2inch option take alot of stress out of the wrist like other small options. My only gripe is that the straps have some kind of paint that comes off on your hands. It hasn't wore off yet, and I have used them about 10 sessions. dirty hands dont bother me, but it might some others so I thought I would share. Overall, best strap I have found...

Great strap, no stretching. I won't even consider another strap when these wear out(Ten years from now)
