Wodies FAQs
DO YOU HAVE A WARRANTY?
GENERAL LIFESPAN OF WODIES CAN BE FROM 6-8 MONTHS AND SOMETIMES OVER A YEAR. JUST DEPENDS ON THE ATHLETE, THE EQUIPMENT AND HOW OFTEN THEY ARE BEING USED.
WODIES CAN TAKE A BEATING, JUST IMAGINE THE ABUSE THEY ARE RECEIVING ON A DAILY BASIS. WE TAKE PRIDE IN OUR GEAR, BUT THEY CAN ONLY LAST SO LONG, REGARDLESS OF OUR EFFORTS TO MAKE AN IMPERISHABLE PRODUCT.
IF YOU FEEL YOU HAVE A SPECIAL CASE WE WILL ALWAYS WORK WITH YOU. PLEASE EMAIL US AT CONTACT@JERKFIT.COM WITH YOUR ORDER #, NAME AND A PICTURE OF THE WODIES.
I MEASURED CORRECTLY BUT STILL FELL I GOT THE WRONG SIZE
ARE YOU DETERMINING THEY ARE TOO SMALL BASED ON HOW THEY APPEAR LAID ACROSS YOUR HANDS? THATS OK, THEY WILL ALWAYS APPEAR TO COME UP SHORT OF YOUR FINGERS AS THERE IS A BUILT IN STRETCH THAT HAS BEEN FACTORED INTO THE SIZING CHART.
WE JUST WANT TO REASSURE YOU THAT IF YOU MEASURED CORRECTLY WHEN YOU FIRST ORDERED ,THAT YOU DO INDEED HAVE THE CORRECT SIZE. PAY ABSOLUTELY NO ATTENTION TO HOW THEY APPEAR ON, ITS VERY IMPORTANT TO FOLLOW ONLY THE SIZING CHART.
IF YOU ARE STILL UNSURE, SHOOT US AN EMAIL WITH YOUR EXACT MEASUREMENT IN INCHES FROM THE BASE OF YOUR PALM TO THE BASE OF YOUR MIDDLE FINGER. IF WE DETERMINE THAT YOU NEED TO GO UP A SIZE, WE CAN MAKE AN EXCHANGE NO PROBLEM.
I CUT FINGER HOLES THEN REALIZED I GOT THE WRONG SIZE WHAT CAN I DO?
WE UNDERSTAND MISTAKES CAN HAPPEN AND DON'T WANT TO STOP YOU FROM EXPERIENCING THE GREATNESS OF WODIES, SO WE HAVE DECIDED THAT WE WILL HONOR AN EXCHANGE. AS LONG AS THE WODIES ARE UNUSED AND RETURNED WITHIN 30 DAYS OF PURCHASE.
TO PREVENT WASTE, PLEASE DOUBLE, TRIPLE CHECK YOUR MEASUREMENTS BEFORE CUTTING THE FINGER HOLES OPEN, AS WE CAN NO LONGER SELL THE PAIR.
IM ON THE LINE BETWEEN SIZES, WHAT DO I CHOOSE?
WE ALWAYS RECOMMEND SIZING DOWN WHEN ON THE LINE BETWEEN SIZES. THE ONLY TIME WE WILL ADVISE YOU TO SIZE UP IS IF YOU FEEL YOU HAVE A REALLY MEATY THUMB MUSCLE THAT EXTENDS DOWN TO YOUR WRIST, THEN SIZE UP.

ARE THE WODIES UNISEX?
YES, THE CAN BE WORN BY BOTH MEN AND WOMEN. THE SIZING IS BASED OFF THE LENGTH OF YOUR PALM FROM THE BASE OF YOUR WRIST TO THE BASE OF YOUR MIDDLE FINGER. SO PLEASE FOLLOW THE MEASURING CHART TO GET YOUR SIZE.
THE FINGER HOLES ARE WAY TO SMALL
THE WODIES COME WITH PRECUT FINGER HOLES THAT THE CUSTOMER WILL CUT OPEN FOR A SNUG FIT. THEY ARE NOT MEANT TO HAVE THE FINGERS FORCED THROUGH THEM. WE ALSO PROVIDE INSTRUCTIONS WITH IMAGES TO HELP GUIDE YOU THAT ARE IN THE WODIES PACKAGE.
BE SURE TO CUT CAREFULLY AND SLOWLY AS TO MAKE SURE THE GLOVES FIT SNUG AROUND THE FINGERS. THE GLOVES WILL STRETCH WITH TIME SO A SNUG FIT WILL ENSURE A LONG LASTING CUSTOM FIT.
GOOD NEWS, YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND GET THOSE WODIES SIZED UP AND START BREAKING THEM IN! USE WITH PLENTY OF CHALK AND WE SUGGEST USING THEM WITH THE BARBELL FIRST, TO BREAK THEM IN FASTER!
WHAT IF I CUT INTO THE THREAD OF THE FINGER HOLES AND THE THREAD BEGINS TO UNRAVEL?
NO WORRIES! THE THREAD IS THERE AS A GUIDE FOR WHERE TO INITIALLY CUT THE FINGER HOLES AND FOR AESTHETIC PURPOSES, IT HAS NO FUNCTIONAL VALUE AND CAN EVEN BE REMOVED IF NECESSARY. THE INTEGRITY OF THE GLOVE WILL NOT BE COMPROMISED.
I JUST TRIED MY WODIES FOR THE FIRST TIME. THE GLOVES FEEL STIFF, TIGHT, AND SLIGHTLY UNCOMFORTABLE, DID I PURCHASE THE WRONG SIZE?
IF YOU FOLLOWED THE SIZE CHART, THEN YOU HAVE THE PERFECT SIZE! WE DESIGNED WODIES FROM DURABLE MATERIALS THAT MUST BE BROKEN IN. CONSIDER THEM LIKE A NEW PAIR OF SHOES OR A BRAND NEW BASEBALL GLOVE, YOU MUST BREAK THESE BABIES IN! RIGHT OUT OF THE PACKAGE THEY MAY FEEL SLIGHTLY STIFF, A LITTLE TIGHT AND PERHAPS UNCOMFORTABLE…THAT’S PERFECTLY NORMAL. WE RECOMMEND AT LEAST 3 WORKOUTS TO REALLY BEGIN TO FEEL THE POTENTIAL OF THESE GLOVES. SOON THE WODIES WILL MOLD PERFECTLY TO YOUR HANDS, THE WRIST SUPPORT WILL SOFTEN UP AND THEN YOU’LL FORGET YOU’RE EVEN WEARING THEM. BUT YOUR HANDS WON’T! THEY’LL BE THANKING YOU!
WHY DOES IT FEEL SLIPPERY ON THE PULL-UP BAR FOR THE FIRST TIME?
THAT IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF NEEDING TO BREAK THEM IN. RIGHT OUT OF THE PACKAGE THE MATERIAL PROTECTING THE PALM IS SMOOTH AND NEEDING A BIT OF ABUSE TO REALLY BRING OUT ITS POTENTIAL. AGAIN WE RECOMMEND ABOUT 3 WORKOUTS TO START TO FEEL THEM BREAKING IN. THE COMBINATION OF CHALK, SWEAT, AND FRICTION WILL BEGIN TO ROUGHEN THEM UP ENOUGH TO WHERE YOU’LL FEEL PLENTY OF GRIP! WE COULD HAVE SLAPPED RUBBER ON THEM, BUT THEN THEY WOULD HAVE STUCK TO THE BAR, BUNCHED UP AND YOUR HANDS WOULD HAVE SLIPPED UNDERNEATH THE MATERIAL CAUSING FRICTION. YOU DON’T WANT THAT. YOU WANT A MATERIAL THAT HAS A NATURAL GLIDE ON THE BAR AND STAYS FLAT AGAINST YOUR HANDS, THAT’S WHAT PREVENTS BUNCHING.
General Products FAQs
HOW SHOULD MY NUBS FEEL WHEN WORN?
NUBS WERE DESIGNED TO HAVE A VERY SNUG FIT WHEN FIRST PUT ON. THEY WILL STRETCH AFTER A COUPLE WORKOUTS. IF YOU ARE ABLE TO GET THEM ON AND BEND YOUR THUMB, THEN YOU HAVE THE RIGHT SIZE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO GET THEM PAST YOUR KNUCKLE, THEN GO UP A SIZE.
MY GEAR IS STARTING TO SMELL, HOW CAN I WASH IT?
WODIES:
GREAT NEWS, THEY CAN GO IN THE WASHER! MAKE SURE TO USE COLD WATER AND CLOSE THE VELCRO ON ITSELF. THE BEST WAY TO DRY THEM WOULD BE AIR DRY, BUT IF YOU ARE RUNNING OUT OF TIME THEY CAN GO IN THE DRYER ON LOW HEAT.
NUBS
THEY ALSO CAN BE WASHED AND DRYED ON LOW HEAT. EITHER STUFF THEM IN A MESH BAG OR IN A SHORT POCKET SO YOU DON'T LOOSE THEM.
RAW GRIPS
DO NOT WASH YOUR LEATHER GRIPS. THE BEST THIN YOU CAN DO OR YOUR GRIPS IS TO LET THEM DRY OUT IMMEDIATELY AFTER A WORKOUT. IT WILL HELP PREVENT THE SMELL.
IF THEY ARE FEELING SLICK DUE TO CHALK BUILD UP. TAKE A GRIP BRUSH, AND HOLDING IT IN ONE HAND, GENTLY BRUSH OFF THE CHALK WITH A MOTION THAT GOES WITH THE LEATHER’S GRAIN (TYPICALLY UP AND DOWN). AVOID BRUSHING THE STITCHING AS THAT CAN LEAD TO TEARS.
KNEE SLEEVES
PREVENTION IS KEY. TURN YOUR KNEE SLEEVES INSIDE OUT AFTER USE AND ALLOW THEM TO AIR DRY. DEPENDING ON HOW FREQUENTLY YOU USE THEM, WASH YOUR KNEE SLEEVES WITH A NORMAL LOAD OF LAUNDRY (AVOID BLEACH AND OTHER CHLORINE-BASED CLEANERS). AIR DRY THEM COMPLETELY BEFORE PUTTING THEM BACK IN YOUR GYM BAG.
IF YOU HAVE GONE TO THE POINT OF NO RETURN AND THEY ARE UNBEARABLE TO WEAR BECAUSE YOU ARE OFFENDING EVERYONE AT THE GYM. TRY THIS TIP.
--BOIL WATER AND ADD 2 TO 4 OUNCES OF DISTILLED WHITE VINEGAR. ADD YOUR KNEE SLEEVES AND ALLOW THEM TO SOAK FOR AT LEAST 10 MINUTES. THEN ADD YOUR KNEE SLEEVES TO A NORMAL LOAD OF LAUNDRY WITH CHLORINE-FREE DETERGENT. ALLOW YOUR KNEE SLEEVES TO COMPLETELY AIR DRY, YOU CAN LEAVE THEM OUTSIDE IN THE SUN TO SPEED UP THIS PROCESS.
DEATH GRIPS
USE A CLEANER SUCH AS WINDEX OR GLASS PLUS, TO CUT OUT THE GREASE AND DIRT BUILD UP FROM NORMAL USE. SPRAY CLEANER LIGHTLY ONTO THE GRIP PORTION AND WIPE CLEAN. DO NOT PUT THEM IN A WASHING MACHINE OR IMMERSE THEM IN WATER. SHOULD THE VELCRO PORTION BECOME STUCK WITH DEBRIS, SIMPLY PULL CLEAN WITH TWEEZERS. PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES LIKE THESE WILL ENSURE A LONG LIFE FOR YOUR DEATH GRIPS.
WEIGHT BELT
HAND WASH WITH MILD DETERGENT, AND AIR DRY.
