    No gloves... have tried only a few times.... and I CANNOT obtain the death grip I get with my bare hands.... Years of outdoor work, rocking climbing, etc have my hands like leather gloves.... Sucks I'll cut people sometimes on accident when I touch them especially girls with there soft fragile skin ban the freak!!

    No gloves.

    Just like reed, I need that extra grip that I can't get when I have gloves on.

    Between lifting and the landscaping I used to do, my hands are beat and callused. I like it.

    I have to say I do wear gloves.. for two reasons. 1. for wrist support 2. the wifey hates it when I have calluses on the hands. I also prefer to save my condoms for the bedroom not the gym.

    No gloves, I have to have to have that feeling and control. Too afraid of slipping with using them.

    Gloves for me for SURE. My hands get horrible calluses (especially around the bottom of my pinky) to the point where it'll hurt my gf when i caress, grab, fondle, sqeeuze, <insert verbage here> various parts of her body. I really dont see how anyone that curls heavy, goes back heavy (especially), tris, u name it can bear the condition it puts ur hands in.. looks nasty to having to constantly remove skin from the calluses.. naahhh not fo me.

    auf w.

    Gloves typically improve grip IMHO, not the opposite but im sure theres peeps that feel different.. weights can slip alot easier especially with sweaty hands, (ESPECIALLY when using heavy dumbbells).

    No gloves but for the record calluses can really kill a good handjob.
