If you talk about strength training, grip is the biggest issue, mostly for sweaty hands, even when muscles are ready to lift. This is where grip gives up quickly. Versa Gripps solves this problem with a hybrid of straps, hooks, and gloves combined, made in the USA. This very durable, patented lifting accessory features a fast lock and easy release, so there's no more strap wrap.
It’s a big yes, especially useful for pull-ups, rows, and deadlifts. Audience says it removes strain from the grip, better focuses on target muscles, and, for ultra-heavy lifts, their traditional straps feel more secure. If you do volume training or bodybuilding-style workouts, Versa Gripps is a strong choice; you can ignore this. If you pursue 1-rep.

Pro Series
Price: ~$70
Strong stitching and long-term durability.
Best for general lifting.
Extreme Series
Price: ~$100
Patented U-shaped arch support.
More stable or secure feel heavy/intense sessions.
Pro Tip: If you do daily heavy training, Pro is enough, but if you are advanced and are looking for maximum grip support, then Extreme is the best choice.
Not everyone has the same size of hand, that is why it designs a Fit model, slim strap (4.8”), perfect for small wrists or for women's functionality with slim fitting.
This is important to choose the right size, and here is the rule
Measure your Wrist circumference.
If you're stuck in the middle of 2 sizes, instantly size up.
Go with little loose-fit grips.
Sizes XS to XL are available on Versa Gripps.
Indeed, their grips are not cheap: Classic ~$50, Pro ~$70+, Extreme ~$100+. But it’s a really good investment for the long-term as compared to a cheap strap which gets useless in months; however, the grips are easily usable for years, and great for lifters who do weekly multiple training.
Pros: quick lock and easy release feature, durable because of handmade craft, perfect for push or pull, small wrists, and it reduces grip fatigue.
Cons: expensive but worth it; if you choose the wrong sizes, there is probably a chance you will regret it.
They are worth hype, especially for grip lovers who are passionate about building themselves into fitness to the next level, great for long-term investment, or keep that in your mind. If you do powerlifting at max level, only traditional straps are a better option for you, a good investment for serious lifters, and they care about safety.
Q1) Why choose loose-fit grips?
A) Tight-fitted grips can restrict blood flow, so you feel struggling to release on the bar.
Q2) Are grips suitable for beginners?
A) Yes, classic and fit models are specially designed for beginners; all you need to train is natural grip strength.
Q3) Wrist size on the border, which version should I choose: Pro or Extreme?
A) Size up is a better option, but if your grip size is on the border and doing heavy training, target Pro or Extreme, it's the best option for comfort and performance; otherwise, you can stay on classic.
