I love your replies
@Badoldman.
I know I put up a joke about me not been good enough to use them but I'm in the same camp as you. I'd hate to use them on the heavy bag as each punch your wearing them down bit by bit....if i was to invest in a pair, which they are an investment, I'd use them only for sparring.
I do want a pair though....just reluctant to pay the price as I don't fight any more, just sparring when covid isn't about.
I second topboxer aliens, I have their stock pair and they're brilliant. Just be aware the 16oz foam is different to the 14oz and less.
