Thank you for sharing your experience with the Mares Flex 20 Ultrastretch Gloves! The grip durability of our gloves is one of their key features and we’re happy to report that it can last for an extended period with proper care. Our customers have reported excellent grip retention even after repeated use. Since everyone’s hands are different, the lifespan of the grip may vary. However, with normal use and proper maintenance, we’ve seen that the grip can last for around 6-12 months. Please note that it’s essential to inspect the gloves regularly and maintain them as instructed in our care guide.
