FAQs

What is the total weight of the gloves?

Each glove weighs 0.5 kg, for a total of 1 kg when wearing both.

Can I use these for weightlifting exercises like bench press?

While they add resistance, they are primarily designed for speed and endurance training. The design prioritizes grip and agility, not heavy load bearing.

Are these gloves machine washable?

No, these gloves are not machine washable. Hand-wash gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, then air dry.

What is the main benefit of the open palm design?

The open palm design allows for a natural feel and the ability to grip equipment such as skipping ropes, dumbbells, or handlebars without obstruction.

How do I know if 0.5 kg is the right weight for me?

These gloves are best for improving hand speed, muscular endurance, and adding moderate resistance. If your goal is significant strength gains, heavier weights might be necessary. For conditioning and speed, 0.5 kg is a good starting point.

What material are the gloves made of?

The gloves are constructed from comfortable and durable neoprene material.

Are the gloves sold as a pair?

Yes, the adidas Weighted Gloves are sold as a pair, with 0.5 kg strategically placed on the back of each hand.

Troubleshooting

Gloves feel uncomfortable or slip during use.

Ensure the hook and loop strap is adjusted correctly for a secure, snug fit. Make sure the iron sand filling is settled comfortably on the back of your hand.

Weight distribution feels uneven.

Gently shake the gloves to ensure the iron sand filling is evenly distributed within its compartment on the back of the hand.

Material shows signs of wear after a few uses.

Ensure you are only using the gloves for their intended purpose and avoiding contact with rough surfaces. Follow the recommended care instructions for cleaning and drying.

  • Effectively increases resistance for upper body workouts.
  • Helps improve hand speed and explosive power.
  • Comfortable fit due to neoprene and contoured filling.
  • Allows for a natural grip on equipment.
  • Durable construction for regular use.

Cons

  • May require an adjustment period for some exercises.
  • 0.5 kg might be too light for advanced strength training.
  • Not suitable for exercises requiring fine motor skills with hands.
  • Solely focused on upper body resistance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use the adidas Weighted Gloves, simply slide your hands into them. Adjust the elasticated wraparound hook and loop strap to ensure a snug and secure fit around your wrist. The weight is pre-distributed on the back of the hand.

Compatibility: These gloves are compatible with a wide range of activities including shadow boxing, skipping, cardio workouts, conditioning training, and light strength exercises. The open palm design makes them suitable for gripping various types of equipment like dumbbells, kettlebells, medicine balls, and skipping ropes.

Care: To maintain the gloves, wipe them clean with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the neoprene material. Allow the gloves to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material degradation. Store them in a cool, dry place.
