We Climb So You Don’t Have To Guess

GripLog started as a chalk-dusted notebook in a backcountry van—and grew into the web’s most trusted source for climbing glove knowledge.


Our team tests every pair of gloves across disciplines: sport, trad, bouldering, ice, and mountaineering. We prioritize durability, tactile feedback, and weather resilience so you get honest, field-tested insights—not marketing fluff.

  • Real climbs, real wear patterns—no lab simulations
  • Focus on niche needs: thin gloves for smearing, thick ones for crack abuse
  • Ethical reviews: we buy gear anonymously or borrow from guides
