Sports reviews of Valeo Padded Lifting Strap, 0.30-PoundCustomer Review: average straps Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
I would say average at best. But low cost so what would you expect. Worth what I paid.
Customer Review: Good only for a beginner Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
These straps are cotton so they stretch during a heavy lift and transfer a lot of the weight back to your hands. It's difficult to get a good grip on heavy weight because of this. Also, the pad is too long so the strap can't be properly tightened around the bar because the loop hits on the pad. I would suggest non-cotton straps with a better pad design (e.g. the Harbinger nylon straps) for advanced lifting.
Customer Review: One size doesn't fit all Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
Maybe my wrists are small (~6 1/2" around), but the positioning of the padding on these straps prevents them from properly tightening around my wrist, so I can't really use them properly or comfortably. Don't bother buying these unless your wrists are at least an inch larger around than mine.
Customer Review: Terrible, Awful, Brutal, Not for Gym Regulars. Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
I receieved the Valeo padded straps and headed off to the gym, after waiting a week for the product to arrive with shipping costs more than the cost of the straps which is rediculous. I purchased them after I lost my previous pair of TKO Fitness straps after beating on them for about 4 years with no problems. I put on the Valeo straps and did one pull-up, and one of the straps ripped in half right on the seam where the neoprene pad was sewn in. My advice, this product is poorly made and cheap. A complete waste of money. Go with something better, and I would avoid the padded straps because the extra stitching weakens the strap fabric.
