EdEd: Over a decade ago, I made a decision that has continued to pay dividends in my gym routine – purchasing a pair of Schiek straps. The durability and performance of these straps have stood the test of time, remaining steadfast companions throughout my gym journey. While the initial investment felt a bit steep at around $50, including shipping directly from Schiek, it's a decision I've never regretted.

Fast forward a decade, and I stumbled upon a fortunate find on Amazon – these very same straps, now on sale. The opportunity was too good to pass up, prompting an immediate purchase. However, a delightful predicament emerged as my wife discovered the benefits of these straps for her deadlifts. In an unexpected twist, she claimed them as her own, leaving me with the choice of either sharing my old, well-worn pair (which I jokingly refer to as the "stinky" ones) or gifting her my new set.

The distinctive feature of these straps is the exceptional wrist protection provided by the foam padding. Moreover, the convenience of the short strap design is remarkable – a swift and effortless process to wrap around the wrist, unlike the traditional counterpart that lacks wrist...

Amazon Customer: These straps are comfortable, and the dowel helps gripping the barbell. However the velcro starts failing over 500lbs and they will only last a year or two. This order was my 3rd pair. They are good for new lifters.

Chris Goode: i have used this style of strap for 10 years now and tried many others as well. Personal preference of course and others may like other strap styles.

What I like about them is the padded wrist loop can be adjusted to assess comfort level. The dowel allows for superior grip and keeps the strap tight around the bar. A few people have said that the dowel setting leads to loose wrap on the bar. This is simply remedied by wrapping the strap a couple times, corskskrew style around the bar, the dowel does not have to sit in the center of your palm by any means.

Anyway, I am sure everyone has their preferred wraps, but these ones are definitely extremely useful throughout the gym.

Andrew: I bought these actually by mistake thinking they were just straps without the dowel. I had bought them and they were all ready shipped so might as well try them out right? I actually like them more than I thought I would. I really do not have the best of grip (am working on that) but can lift so much more with straps.

Pros: Foam padding for the wrist so the straps won't dig in like other straps; Once you figure out how to use them and have a little practice, these are very quick to lock into place; With normal straps, it matters how you put them on your wrist and which one is right and left. These have no right and left, just depends on how you want to tighten the Velcro; Velcro seems very durable and should last a long time;

Cons: Takes some practice to get these on without the other hand at first.; If you have a new barbell, these have the potential to wear out quick; Short strap but just the right size for me to get it tight and comfortable.

I would recommend these to anyone I worked out with.They are overall made with lifting in mind and work like a champ so far. I gave these 4 start just because I see potential for them to wear down faster than I would...
