New Lifting Straps?

I am going to be in need of new lifting straps. Right now, I am using Harbinger padded straps, but the pads don't allow me to lock-in on the bar, and I don't get as good of a grip.

I got the padded ones because the regular cloth ones I had been using were digging into my wrists and leaving red marks (plus they shredded on me, so I needed to get new ones). I am not linking them, even though I have had them for about a year. I don't use them that often, just on my heaviest deadlifts, heaviest shrugs, low cable rows, pull-downs, and chins. So I think I am ok with putting up with the red marks on my wrists so that I can get straps that I feel more confident with.

I was thinking of getting leather straps, but I was listening to Heavy Muscle Radio, and they mentioned Versa Grip straps. When I looked these up, I found them very interesting, and am looking to find out if anyone has an opinion on them, since I have never used that type of grip/strap before. I'm wondering if there is too much padding on these, and that I would run into the same issue.

Has anyone experienced the same problem I have? Good solutions?
