DO NOT use or chalk these grips until you ensure the grips are the correct size. Sizing is approximate and often times a personal preference, so please keep in mind that you cannot return the grips once they have been used. Place your index, middle, and ring finger into the holes and adjust the hook and loop strap comfortably around your wrist. You should be able to nearly open your hand fully so the leather lies flat in your hand.
SIZING GUIDE:
1. Find your hand/wrist connection. This is where your hand and wrist meet (you should see a creased line there). Measure from about 1 inch below this connection.
2. Be sure your hand and fingers are totally straight and flat. DO NOT cup your hand or stretch your fingers backward.
3. Measure from just below the wrist/hand connection (where you see the crease) to the base of your middle finger. Be precise and don't round up or down.
***If between sizes, go up to next size***
*** The leather grips will stretch slightly***
WARNING. Hand Grips are NOT A TOY. Any activity involving motion or height creates the possibility of serious injury or even death. This equipment should be used for its intended use only. Before using, know your limitations and the limitations of this gear. Always inspect for damage and test stability before each use and inspect to make sure all parts are secure before each use. If unsure of the proper use of this equipment seek supervision by a trained specialist.

The problem
Your hands give out before your muscles do
You're strong enough for the reps — but your grip fails first, so you drop off the bar early and leave reps on the table. Grips take your hands out of the equation.
What it solves
The specific problems that make you slip and rip
Train harder for higher lifts
Protect your hands so you can push through more volume instead of stopping to save your skin.
Hit PRs more easily
Keep your grip when it counts, so your hands don't cost you the rep on a max effort.
No chalk needed — works in regular gyms
Get a secure grip without chalk, so you can train in gyms where chalk is banned or discouraged.
No more stopping training from ripped hands
Prevent the rips that force days off, so you train without interruption.
Lasts 12+ months
One pair holds up to daily training for a year or more, instead of wearing out in a few months.

Get it right the first time
Choose the right grip for your training
Grips can't be returned once they're chalked, so pick with confidence. Here's the 3-second rule.
3-Hole
Best for
Mostly bar work. Maximum coverage for high-rep pull-ups, toes-to-bar and muscle-ups.
No-Hole
Best for
Mixed training. Flips back fastest for barbell work — the go-to if your WODs blend gymnastics and lifting.
2-Hole
Best for
The classic middle ground. A little less coverage than 3-hole, quick on and off.
Sizing
Measure your palm across the knuckles (skip the thumb) and match the chart. Between sizes? Go smaller — the material molds and loosens slightly over the first few sessions.
Proven at the highest level
Used by athletes at the CrossFit Games
Bear KompleX is the official grip of the CrossFit Games. The same grips that competitors rely on to hold an unfamiliar bar are what protect your hands in an everyday pull-up workout — where a slip means a missed rep and a rip means days off training.
CrossFit Open season
Get 20% off your pair before the Open
Every material, every hole style. Protect your hands before the high-rep season of the Open. The code applies at checkout automatically — or enter it if it drops.
OPEN2026 Choose your sizeWhat they wrote after wearing them
Stopped my hands ripping
Finished Murph without a single tear — the first time ever. And I didn't use chalk once.
Grips powder-coated bars
The only grips that hold on our powder-coated bars. I slide off everything else — these stay put.
No wrist pain
The strap wraps the wrist instead of digging in like my old pair did. Much more comfortable on muscle-ups.
Fast switches to the barbell
I can flip them back for cleans without stopping. Workouts that mix pull-ups and lifting are much smoother now.
Questions
Before you buy
No-hole, 2-hole or 3-hole — which do I get?
Mostly bar work (pull-ups, toes-to-bar, muscle-ups) → 3-hole for maximum coverage. Mixed training where you flip back for barbell → no-hole. 2-hole is the classic middle ground with a bit less coverage.
How do I measure for the right size?
Measure your palm width across the knuckles, not including the thumb, and match the size chart. When you land between sizes, go smaller — the material molds and loosens slightly over the first few sessions.
Do I really not need chalk?
Most athletes run them chalk-free. A light dusting is optional, never required.
Will they work on the bars at my gym?
Yes — stainless, chrome, standard steel and powder-coated, including the unfamiliar bars at competitions, which is exactly where chalk-dependent setups let people down.
Can I use them for barbell work too?
Yes. Flip the grip back over your fingers for cleans, snatches and deadlifts so the material isn't between your hand and the bar. No-hole flips back fastest mid-WOD.
Do they take time to break in?
A little. They feel stiff for the first 3–5 sessions, then soften and mold to your hand — and the fit keeps getting better.
What if the size is wrong?
Unused pairs get free size swaps within 30 days. Because grips can't be returned once chalked or used, check the size guide first — and when between sizes, go smaller.
