FAQ
Your burning questions answered
PRODUCT FAQ
What's the difference between HD and OG?
HD has a wider wrist support and wider hand coverage. Our OG design has a thinner wrist support and more minimalist hand coverage, designed to fit the human hand. Which is better? That's purely personal preference, generally speaking bigger athletes tend to prefer the HD. Those who like less bulk on their wrist prefer the OG.
Should i go a size up for fingerless?
Potentially yes, however it's important to note you do not need to cover your finger tips. If anything the grips will just get in the way more during other activity, 3/4 up the fingers is plenty to lock in hard on the bar with.
Should I chalk these?
Yes these are a chalk based grip. Best way to test for you and your bars is to first try with just a chalked pull up bar and then from there adding chalk to the grip as needed throughout your workout.
What pull up bars do these work best with?
All pull up bars, these are a great all rounder, however they especially excel on chalked powder coated bars. For steel/speal bars with chalk or particularly rought bars we recommend the Fibre grips.
What's the difference between Base Grips and Elite Grips?
Base Carbon uses a classic synthetic leather with a carbon fibre surface, they're best used with chalk and in chalky environments. Same is true of our Fibre Grips. Our Elite Grips are our specialised rubber surface which has a "omg game changer" grip surface and are chalk free.
Should I go fingerless or fingerholes?
One way you can decide is how you grab the pull up bar. Thumbs around, fingerhole may be better, Thumbs over, fingerless may be better. Especially when using for muscle ups thumb over the bar is the recommended use when completing bar muscle ups. But it does come down to personal preference. Fingerholes also offer other options such as to be used on KB's or on a barbell as needed. It's also worth noting you do not necessarily need to put your fingers all the way in the fingerholes, and just to the first knuckle will often give you more of a dowel effect to lock onto the bar with. Again test and trial and see what works best for you.

All the info on the website made it really clear which grips I needed.
Grips arrived exactly as advertised and have been great.
Love the sweatbands they came with as well.
This is my second pair of Frog grips. I love that I can use these on chalked bars. My muscle ups and toes to bar have gotten significantly better. 10/10 would recommend.
Used a friends frog grips at a crossfit comp. We're amazing on the day. Upgraded my old pair and it wasn't the hype of the event that made me realise how good they were They are a quality and comfortable product. Love using them. Superseds my old one (not naming the brand). Definitely recommend FROG grips! 👌🏽
This is my second pair of Frogs. Everyone has their favorites and I’ve tried several other brands. For me, Frog Grips are the only grips in the space. The comfort and grip on the rig are unmatched, the flexibility when rotating away for other movements also unmatched.
Seriously, it’s not even close. Buy them and see for yourself.
LOVE all frog grips, will never use any other brand again. Great quality!
I'm training btw 10-15hours a week and use my grips a lot and all my grips from frog has hold up for at least 1 year which is amazing with the amount of training and gymnastics I do!
These are my favourite grips!! They give me so much confidence on the bar. I wore my other ones down so it was time for a new pair! My choice are the Frog grips everytime!
Frog grips base grip 2.0 HD
I found these gloves comfortable and stylish, but they need to be worn in. The first few times I used them were a bit challenging, even tho I put chalk on them.
Other than that, they’re really good quality gloves
Nice grips but I prefer the rubber ones, I think their performance will improve with chalk maybe as little slippy on metal bars
Still like them though.
Honestly, I used them for the first time at the CrossFit Masters Games. Since then, I’ve used them only twice more, and they’re already this worn out. At this price point, I would have expected them to last much longer.
I’ve only used these two weeks and they are already ripping. I don’t love paying so much for grips and then they are destroyed right away. By chance we can make this right and get a replacement?
I’m be emailed regarding the grips as they’re not the right ones for the rig we use. I’m needing the elite grip ones. I’m needing to exchange them if possible?
I don't find these grippy at all. I've tried them on smooth bars, gnurled bars, chalked and unchalked bars . I've gone back to my old worn grips from another brand. I don't feel like I can trust these.
