I like these gloves. There aren't many 3/4-finger gloves out there and these are exactly what I wanted. I was getting calluses in the middle phalanges of my fingers, and I wanted a glove that'd provide that coverage without it being full enclosed, as I use my phone at the gym to record my workouts. These fit the bill great.
Pros:
– They've very comfortable. The back of the palm has a lot of little holes, and the fabric on that section is different, so it breathes really well and my hands don't get quite as sweaty. That, the amount of stretch and and the overall design makes these just nice to use.
– I've never found the extra padding on the palms to get in the way at all, and it's a nice to have for barbell and dumbbell exercises.
– They're not bulky, so I'm able to wear my watch with the gloves on with no issues.
– The grip is good. I haven't felt once like anything was slipping or anything close to it, and that's even without my using a lot of force.
– Another bonus of the design is that it's easy to use touchscreens with these (and writing as well). Given that most of the bulk of the gloves is in the palms, and otherwise they're fairly thin, dexterity isn't compromised at all.
– They overall fit well. I have large hands. I wear XL to XXL in basically all gloves, and XL in these worked just fine. They're snug but not uncomfortable, just stay in place. For context, my palms are roughly 4.25in/10.5cm ish at the top of my palms, between the outside of right beneath my index and pinky fingers.
Cons:
– While I like the material choices (especially the breathability, as I tend to sweat a lot), I'm not sure these will last a long time. I've had them for about 3 months and they've seen anywhere from 3-6 workouts a week during that timeframe. They don't look much worse for wear that I can tell, I'm just not super confident these will last forever.
– This is personally not a con for me, as I don't like having it in gloves, but these have no wrist support. That's not an issue with me because I've never felt like I needed it, and I don't use straps for deadlifts either, but you might have different preferences and it's something to be aware of.
TL;DR: Comfortable, well-designed, breathable and work well, but have no wrist support and might not last a very long time.

Great exercise gloves!
I use gloves for biking and the gym, and I like gloves that are somewhat ventilated on top, especially for biking in hot weather to minimize my hands sweating in the gloves, but not many brands offer that. This set has a mesh for the top that provides some ventilation and works well. I also selected this pair due to the longer covering for the fingers, which makes a big difference for weight-lifting. My old gloves were like most where they cut off before my first knuckle, which could result in some callousing, especially with heavy workouts. But this pair is longer and has some extra padding on the two middle fingers, which is great. There are also tabs on the fingers to help pull the gloves off, which works well. For some reason, they didn’t include tabs on the thumbs, so they are still a little tough to pull off. My hands are not that big, but I still use a Large size, which fit well and arent too tight or too loose. I measured my hand like one site recommended and my palm size is 8 3/4 inches, which is just on the low side of a Large. Good idea to measure your palm to make sure you don’t get the wrong size. Looks like 8.5 inches was the high side for Mediums. I would think most women would be fine with a Medium versus a Small. A tad loose is better than too tight (to me, that is). I recommend these gloves!

Comfortable Grip and Good Protection — Great for Everyday Workouts
I’ve been using these SueStar workout gloves for weight lifting and general gym sessions, and they’ve been a solid addition.The grip is one of the best parts. It helps keep a secure hold on dumbbells, barbells, and machines, especially during longer workouts when your hands start to sweat. The palm padding provides good protection against calluses, which makes a noticeable difference over time.They’re also lightweight and breathable, so your hands don’t overheat too much during training. The fit is comfortable and flexible without feeling bulky, which is great for different types of exercises.The only downside is that the padding isn’t super thick, so if you’re lifting very heavy weights, you might want something more heavy-duty. Also, sizing can be a bit important — choosing the right fit makes a big difference in comfort and grip.Overall, these are a great pair of gloves for everyday fitness, lifting, and general training.Pros: strong grip, comfortable fit, breathable, protects handsCons: moderate padding, not for extreme heavy lifting, they may not last long on average use

Most comforable working-gloves ever
I workout easily 5-6 times a week, so I know a thing or two about work-out equipment. That said, hands down it’s the most comfortable workout gloves I’ve ever owned. Previously, I’ve always used Harbinger gloves…not going to write the negatives (this is not a review of Harbinger gloves), but SueStar’s airly design on the back keeps the hands cool (or at least not warm like, let’s say, “others”).I only had it for a couple of months, so it’s kind of early to tell, but thus far, the durability is pretty good and the padding hasn’t flattened yet. With the “other”, I feel that the padding flattened quite quickly and also started to tear apart. BUT, let’s see padding situaion and durability in 6-9 month time… Let’s be realistic though; for the purpose of the gloves, it just not going to last forever.What I like the most about these gloves is that finger coverage goes up quite high the finger. That additional coverage does wonders to the gripping, comfort and prevention of callus building in the upper side of the fingers.

It’s ok
Comfortable but not enough padding

Good gloves!
I have used them 3-6 time a week for 3 months on 45 min workouts and the are still in good shape. But I always pull them out carefully at the end without excessive force. They fit very nicely. Maybe if you are a very heavy user and treat them poorly then you may have the other issues mentioned in some reviews.

I was getting really torn up hands and fingers for high rep barbell work. All other gloves don’t have long enough fingers so your fingers still get ripped up but these come up your fingers so protect the palm and fingers. Not good for kipping pull ups or anything involving pull up bar – too slippery. I like that the wrist straps are not wide so doesnt interfere with my watch.

Quite good but not as padded as I’d like and the grip is not excellent. However offers some support for my fingers which were getting sore with using hand weights/kettle bells. I like the longer fingers and they are nice and flexible, on the positive side.

Absolutely perfect gloves. I had another pair with wrist wraps but they interfered with my fitness watch. These are great. The fingers cover all my sensitive spots without getting too hot. Any my calluses are gone! Happy lifting.My only wish was they came in one size smaller.

I wish they padded all the fingers not just the 3 out of 5. I ordered a small and went with size chart and they fit perfect. I like the length so I ordered these instead of super cheap gloves but these feel like they could be cheaper because it’s not super padded. It will still work.
