These weights were exactly what I was expecting - 3 pounds and purple. :-) I was concerned by other reviewers' comments that they might be uncomfortable and have things "poking out," but mine don't have any problems like that. There is a seam, naturally, but it doesn't hurt my hands at all. I bought these to replace some 2 lb weights that had foam lining that my dog chewed off. She can't chew the neoprene off these!

One small con keeping me from giving it 5 stars: I found them cheaper at Target. As an Amazon Prime shopper, it almost never works out that I find something cheaper in town since Amazon usually has great prices and I get free shipping, but Target had a selection of weights that were a couple of dollars cheaper and seemed just as good.Get more detail about Valeo HW3 3-Pound Neoprene Hand Weights.
