I'm getting some serious calluses but I feel like I might feel dumb with gloves.

    I don't and my calluses are getting pretty tough. I'm planning to push through unless I think it's hindering my lifts.

    Only for some lifts like the DL-it's a *itch on my hands.

    I keep thinking I'll look dumb using them too but for deadlifts they really are crucial, not just for aesthetics (calluses aren't pretty or womanly...lol) but because one day soon I'm going to lose my grip and drop 100+ lbs on my feet. Ouch! Get some gloves if you think they'll help. You don't have to wear them for everything.
