better workout gloves ?

Anyone know where I can get wkrt. gloves that have longer finger coverage and some gel or padding on the palm side.

I'm not hatin' but - you really wear workout gloves? Calluses make for a better grip on the bar.

that is until you get a worn out bar that allows no grip, use a thumb behind grip and have 315 drop to your chest...gloves have their place...plus the g/f hates rough hands on her ass

then again i don't wear gloves either

Well' #1. - I get a better grip on the bar with an increased diameter, either by glove, or but using some pipe insulation from Home Depot.

I used to not wear gloves for years and yes, women had complaints.

Also, now at 51 yo, I am having rhuematoid arthritis in several knuckles.

It runs on both sides of the family. by the time my father was 59, he was having to drink coffee with both hands, by 67, he had to have the cup carried for him.

I take some relavant supps. and Black Cherry juice, yet JOINT PROTECTION is a major concern as I continue to lift for years to come.

Thanks to all for your feedback.
