Escape the tape! With Nubs thumb sleeves, there’s no more dealing with bunched-up, sweaty tape that falls off mid-WOD and leaves your skin and equipment sticky. Nubs are designed to provide a superior alternative to traditional athletic tape, offering a comfortable and secure fit for your thumbs during intense workouts.
These hook-grip helpers are handmade in the USA from high-quality, latex-free elastic material. They are crafted to fit snugly on your thumbs, drastically reducing friction and absorbing sweat to keep your grip locked in. The comfortable padded feel of Nubs helps to stabilize your grip and prevent cuts or irritation that can arise from knurling on barbells.
Nubs are engineered to stay in place throughout your entire workout, eliminating the need for constant readjustment. They are also highly absorbent, effectively soaking up chalk and sweat, and remain virtually dry during your WOD. This ensures a consistent and reliable grip, allowing you to focus on your performance without distractions.
Beyond their primary use in fitness, Nubs have found popularity in various other activities. Musicians, particularly those playing woodwind instruments like the saxophone and oboe, use Nubs for protection and cushioning from the constant pressure of thumb rests, preventing bruising and blistering. Golfers also utilize Nubs as an alternative to tape, targeting specific trouble spots on thumbs and fingers to prevent blistering during rounds or at the driving range.
Nubs are incredibly durable and designed for long-lasting use. They are machine washable, allowing for easy cleaning and repeated use without concerns about sweat or odor buildup. Each package of Nubs comes as a pair.

I usually use tape for my cleans/snatches . So far I have appreciated these more than tape . The tape tends to roll up from hook grip . These sleeves stayed in place, no rolling up at the base , prevents thumb tears and helps with a better grip . I can’t speak on longevity and how long they will last gripping on an aggressive barbell . I feel confident it will be a better investment over tape . So far , I can say for sure , I like the functionality of the sleeve more than tape .

Save Your Thumbs
These Thumb Sleeves work exceptionally well! Not only do they fit snugly, but they also cover just the right amount of your thumbs to provide the correct amount of support for the hook-grip.

Jerkfit Nubs
Been in CrossFit for 15 years. Used to tape my thumbs and wasted a lot of money on tape. Nubs do the job even better than tape an last for years!

Wonderful company
I ordered the Nubs thumb sleeves from a retailer and had an issue with getting my order. I contacted the company and they immediately took care of the situation and sent me out the sleeves. I've only been able to use them once so far due to a procedure. I do think I will order a xsmall next time as the small slid up on my thumb a little bit. But, overall I think it's a great product and company.
