No need to put it away, so it's easy to keep up with
This handgrip, made of natural beech wood, blends seamlessly into any space where you spend a lot of time, such as your living room or desktop.
It is self-standing, so it doesn't take up much space.
Solving the "can't stick to it" problem with the comfort of wood
Gentle wood texture that doesn't need to be put away
Are the harsh metallic visuals and outlandish colors of silicone products often found in traditional fitness equipment creating noise in your daily life? Do you feel stressed about taking them out and putting them away, hindering your ability to make exercise a habit?
By replacing them with the gentle texture of wood, Storich's handgrips can always be kept close at hand.
A soothing touch
Unlike the cushioned materials found in conventional grips, which can feel sweaty, become sticky due to chemical reactions, yellow, or degrade, this natural material offers a smooth touch that brings peace of mind.
Easy to clean
Simply wipe with a dry cloth for easy maintenance.
Addictive wooden spring sensation
Without cushioning material, the gripping force is directly transmitted to the spring, and the rebound comes back. This smooth transmission is comfortable and provides an addictive sensation unique to bentwood.
Focus on the stimulation of hand movement
In recent years, scientific studies have revealed that sensory stimulation from natural, repetitive movements in daily life, such as walking and chewing, can activate the brain. However, opportunities for sensory stimulation in daily life are decreasing as society becomes more convenient.
Therefore, we planned this handgrip to provide comfortable stimulation using beech wood, which is familiar to the human hand and has traditionally been used for tool handles and children's toys.
With a light load of approximately 5 kg, this product focuses on repetitive gripping and releasing movements, similar to a grip ball.
How to use
Grip the handle and repeatedly clench and open your hand, feeling the resistance.
Recommendation for casual "while-doing" exercise
The gentle texture of wood and its crisp appearance blend seamlessly into any living space.
This item is suitable for all ages and adapts to various stages of life, making it a lifelong companion. It comes in a chic greige gift box, making it perfect for gifting.
Unique solid wood handgrip features
Our testing machine has achieved 100,000 strokes (※this is the number of cycles achieved in 3.5 days of continuous 8-hour daily use). You can view the fatigue test video.
The secret of its strength lies in the wood grown in snow country.
Beech and maple, grown and hardened by annual snowfall of up to 4 meters, possess both strength and flexibility.
Storich has previously offered stationery, small items, and interiors that leverage the characteristics of different materials, but this is the first time we have combined beech and Itaya maple. By using beech for the parts that come into contact with the hands and maple for the parts subjected to bending stress, we aimed to achieve both a comfortable texture and durability.
Storich's unique bending technology
The springiness created by bending a single board with continuous fibers from end to end acts as the metal spring in conventional handgrips. The inner Itaya maple is polymer-treated and bent to increase strength and durability. The outer beech grip section prioritizes tactile feel and is bent in two places without polymer treatment to distribute the applied force.
The balance of springiness between the two components allows for a comfortable load, and by joining the two, warping and twisting are prevented, stabilizing the shape.
