The brand, initially made famous by Nat's unique sequence photography of top weightlifters from various major world and regional meets, subsequently ventured into retailing weightlifting gears including knee supports, wrist supports, lifting belts and many more.
Hookgrip weightlifting gears are now frequently spotted on top weightlifters and enthusiasts alike.
