Many people ask what type of gloves we use for our workouts. It's a Craftsman glove that can be found at Home Depot or most hardware stores. We've found that serves us best.Eventually we will design a Bar-barians glove exclusively for Bar-work.
I went out and got these gloves. They are definitely perfect for bar work. FYI, Craftsman brand can only be bought through Sears (it took me a while to find them).
I use batting gloves with a thin smooth leather grip (no extra padding). I got two pair for around $14. They only last about 6 months each since they are not build as sturdy as the work gloves.
Do these gloves provide a strong grip or just reduce the friction?
I find that thing I'm lacking for the human flag is a strong grip because I can do the flag for 5 seconds on steel wire at the Brooklyn Bridge since it's really thin and I can put my whole hand, fingers touching my thumb, around it.
Versus
a stop sign where most people flag, I can only put my fingers on it and my thumb is farther apart; the bar is thicker.
