Default Altus "cardio" gloves

The Altus rep requested any suggestions about the Cathe line so I hope SNM can pass this on. I would really like to see the gloves with velco and built with a stronger material. I find the gloves difficult to remove after a nice sweaty weight workout and have found I much prefer my sturdier gloves that have a velcro attachment across the wrist that enables me to easily slip them on and off. They are a cheapo Harbinger glove.

I second the motion on the velcro.

Thanks,
This is interesting. I have padded weightlifting gloves -- Harbinger -- and I don't wear them because they are padded. The padding gets in the way of holding the bar securely. I was thinking of getting Cathe's because I think I read that they aren't padded.

Personally I can't say I care for the padding although I could see where people would want it. I just think the velco is a must.
