When we introduced our Golf Grips at the PGA Show, we were so proud. Oliver came up with a great design. They were made with 6,000 lb rated nylon strapping, heavy duty upholstery thread, buckles rated for 250 pounds, D-rings rated at 60 lbs and industrial strength hook and loop / Velcro rated at 5,000 closures, the number of times the Velcro will maintain its current tear strength after so many opens and closes.
We proudly designed and hand-made our Grips to last forever. Our booth was swamped! Our ‘Bag Tag on Steroids’ was so unique! Our embroidered patch enabled golfers to show off their colors, while helping them centralize their gear and carrying and air-drying several golf gloves at once. We had lots of interest. We priced them at $24.95. Attendees lost interest due to our pride pricing! But from there we discovered that our solution was not just golf-centric. It made sense for so many other applications. Our Grips evolved. We also lowered our prices yet kept the following in place. -Hand made in Chicago -Exact same rugged, high-quality components. Yes our Grips are over-built. PROUDLY! Yes our Grips are under-priced. Even more PROUDLY! We learned that pride does not encourage purchases. Value encourages purchases. Many of our customers have had their grips for years! We proudly over-build our Grips so you can under-worry about your gloves and gear. Click HERE to see our specifications from our original website. Thanks for joining us on our journey.

Why are some tools more expensive than others? Is it the quality? Sometimes it is the brand. Many times it is what materials are used to make the glove. Other times it could be the amount of labor that goes into making the glove or where it was made. But all things being equal….if a glove fits and appears to be able to do the job, why even get the glove with a velcro wrist strap and instead save a few bucks and get a glove with a ‘Elastic Wrist Cuff’ (EWC). It saves money and gets the job done, right? Only if you don’t really need gloves in the first place….maybe to protect that man’icure or at the other end of the spectrum, you are handling stuff and waste that will render your gloves useless or undesirable once the task is done. Surgical gloves come to mind. Also those brown canvas gloves you are wearing to handle some nasty waste….let’s not get too graphic…but I think you get the point. What it comes down to is whether you spend $7 or $70 on a pair of gloves, get ones that become a 2nd layer of protection or added grip for your task at hand…gloves with a velcro wrist strap!
