Barehand Gloves

So, I've been thinking about getting a pair of gloves, especially for deadlifts. I keep seeing the Barehand Gloves pop up on my advertisements, and they seem good, though I have no experience. I think I would like something that doesn't completely cover my hands better. Any experience with these, or recommendations for anything better?

    The selling point in the link is to get a better grip; I prefer chalk for that.

    Liquid Grip FTW! Although I gotta admit those are cool looking gloves :smiley:

    Agreed with chalk--I've never found gloves to actually improve my grip, they always seem to make it worse.

    Those are weird. I can't see how they wouldn't just be yanked off your hands by pulling on the bar.

    I love how the example is bench press, not deadlift. When I used lifting gloves if they wrist strap wasn't tight enough they would slide down when I was pulling (deadlift, rows, lat pull downs, etc.).
