Should you use leather weight lifting gloves?  The better question would probably be “are the weight lifting gloves you’re already using actually leather?”  There’s lots of cheap knock offs on the market, and some of them are well known brands.  Here’s what you need to know before you buy…

1. Check the product packaging for a description of the materials. This seems like a no brainer but you’d be surprised how many people overlook this.  I recently bought a pair of Gold’s Gym Brand weight lifting gloves at Walmart because they looked pretty cool, only to find when I got home that they were “micro-fiber leather.” Translation:  NOT real leather!

2.  You do get what you pay for. Those Golds Gym Gloves were only $8.99 so I guess I shouldn’t have expected them to be real leather when I think about it.

Why Leather Weight Lifting Gloves are Better

Leather is one of the most durable natural materials you can buy!  There’s a reason why your gym shoes are made from leather.  Not only does it stand up to constant wear and tear, but over time it will naturally conform to you hands.  In the case of weight lifting gloves… that means your gloves will actually fit like a glove!
