FAQs
Who are the WAGs Flex Grip Gloves best suited for?
They are ideal for individuals experiencing mild wrist or thumb pain/discomfort during fitness activities, as well as those seeking enhanced grip and comfort.
What is the main difference between the Flex pad and other gel pads?
The Flex pad is slimmer and shorter, allowing for more direct palm contact and a versatile workout experience, compared to thicker pads designed for maximum cushioning.
Can I use these for heavy weightlifting?
They can be used for moderate weightlifting to improve grip and provide some wrist comfort. However, for very heavy lifting that requires extensive wrist support, a specialized weightlifting glove might be more suitable.
How do I clean my WAGs Flex Grip Gloves?
They are machine washable in cold water on a gentle cycle. It's best to use a mild detergent and air dry them completely; do not put them in a dryer.
Will these gloves prevent all wrist pain?
The gloves are designed to ease or prevent discomfort associated with mild wrist pain. They may not eliminate pain for severe conditions or provide medical-grade support.
Are these gloves suitable for outdoor activities like cycling?
Yes, the non-slip palm and cushioning can enhance grip and comfort on bicycle handlebars, reducing vibration and hand fatigue.
What does 'Cross Training Style Gloves' mean?
It indicates that the gloves are designed to be versatile and suitable for a variety of training disciplines and exercises, rather than being specialized for a single sport.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel too tight or too loose.
Check the sizing chart and ensure you have selected the correct size. A proper fit is essential for comfort and support.
Gel pad does not seem to provide enough cushioning.
The Flex model features a slimmer pad for increased palm contact. If more substantial cushioning is needed, consider a thicker glove model. Ensure the pad is correctly positioned under your wrist's heel.
Grip is not as secure as expected.
Ensure the gloves and the equipment surface are clean and dry. Sweat can reduce the effectiveness of the non-slip palm.
Gloves are uncomfortable after extended use.
Try adjusting the fit slightly or ensure your hands are not excessively sweaty. The absorbent liner should help manage moisture, but prolonged, intense activity may still lead to discomfort.
