Stringbacked Mitts

[trj977]

Anybody know where I can get some of these. I have unfortunately discovered that my last surviving pair are about to fall to pieces.

The type I particularly like were "Elan" and were white with a red and blue stripe across the back.

Thanks

Not quite the same colour scheme, but would these be any good?

I was going to suggest Prendas too.

I also have some ancient falling to pieces crocheted mitts. The newer style look a bit sweaty to me.

I use the Golds Gym mitts (which I used to use for BodyCombat), and they're great 'cos they have the string backs and leather palms which means a good grip on the bars.

Altura do them too, but I don't know if the're any good

My mate uses the Altura ones and he has been pleased with them.

Thanks everybody. The Predas mitts look like what I am after.

I got the Prendas ones, they came very quickly and they're bloody nice

I've got Altura's, no complaints, have withstood a good number of soakings and recover well.

Stringbacked Mitts Update

Ordered the Prendas mitts.

They were delivered the next day! I must say I am very pleased with them, so much so that I am ordering another pair.

Just thought I should leave a comment as I am very impressed with both the service and the goods.
