I use workout gloves.. they make me workout harder in fashion! I hate working out and haivn gmy palms feeling like they're gonna rip into pieces. I'm thinkin of getting new gloves. HOw often do you get new gloves? I have used them over 5 months approximately now. They're worn out and very smelly because i accidnetally spilled some rotten cranberry juice on them. HORRIBLE smell. But they're so comfortable!!! It's like having broken-in jeans for your hands.
