Post Your Gloves/Gear

Do they have stock gloves? Sometimes they post some ready to buy. Few posts before @Edgar Martinez posted new pairs recently purchased and they look very neat.

They have ramped up their Instagram activity over the last month or so and the gloves look very good. That being said the pair I had before looked great it was before the serious quality control issues but they lining come away after a few uses

Kinda curious how New Sporting is nowadays, has anyone bought any gloves from them recently? Im kinda tempted on buying one of their stock gloves

Hey @JamesSurya I've just placed an order about 1~2 weeks ago, it all went well, communication, service, delivery dates and gloves quality. I must say, this iteration with NS was better than with any other of the Mexican brands orders iteration I've been doing during these weeks. I mean, in terms of all those elements I've mentioned.

And the gloves, to me, are very top quality above most of the other MX brands. Yet, still planning to do more training with them until I can publish a more clear review. I've been training wearing different brand gloves during the same session to have a clearer reference of feeling... I'd say none of the other brands gets close to NS feeling and quality.

Planning on ordering a glove from them but still kinda afraid because of the whole quality control and bad customer service situation. But if everything went well with you then it should be fine

Hmmmmmm indeed.

They've been pretty up-front about the X series being manufactured in China and "finished" in the UK. Can't see why they'd hide any of their stuff being made in Mexico (since that is usually used as a promotional factor by other companies like Fortis & Russian Boxer).

More likely they just ripped off what they liked from the designs of some Mexican gloves. When they launched they made a lot of noise about all the research and prep that had gone into their designs.

Whatever: it works. Their gloves are fantastic.

I think their gloves realy are made in the UK. I recall going through their instagram and seeing some leather craftsmanship photos. Click through and it was a lady leatger worker based in the UK who, at least at the time was working for Fly.

Fly have definitely taken inspiration from other brands though, especially their X line which just looks the exact same as Winning's stock line. Performance-wise is obviously different and I love both.

Nothing wrong with taking inspiration from elsewhere and creating something great!

Yeah, agreed. I remember seeing that stuff from their UK leather workshop. I also appreciate the fact they admit the X gloves are partly done in China. I guess the key is their quality control, which seems to be really consistent.

Has anyone here bought the Seyer gloves recently?

Not recently. I have a pair I bought in 2008

[Gym Turtle]

Has anyone owned or used both the Boon NKPB and KPB thai pads? What are the differences between the two aside from the aesthetic ones? Are the NKPB an improvement over the KPB?

I went on the FLY UK Instagram to look at more of their stuff. Look at the shape of the thumb of the FLY glove and compare it to shape of the New Sporting thumb, especially from the side view. That distinct kindney-shape...a thumb shape that was distinctly seen initially only on Grant and New Sporting (not even on HDZ), and then a bunch of new startup gear companies started to have that thumb shape at right about the same time New Sporting got overloaded with orders and their customer service plummetted.

Hmmmmmm.....

which startups do you mean?

 

[destroyer4147]

which startups do you mean?

NBNL, Russian Boxer, Bryant Boxing, Salvador MXN, Fly, Adams Boxing (gloves), etc... that all intially had the Grant design, especially the thumb

Here's one of the gloves I'm hoping to bring out to the USA in the coming weeks when I launch my MMA brand in the states! We're called A1 Fight Gear.

Hopefully I can have some of you test them out when we have logistics set up!

Hii anyone here have experience with adidas adistar fight gloves?
The gloves made in pakistan and using injection mold, but the price can be said expensive compare other brand like reyes or rival.
So i want to get some opinion from seniors here.
Thank you

My friend has a pair of their designed in USA training gloves which also are IMF, they're comfy and feel good to use initially but the padding broke down very fast and broke into pieces within the glove

Hii thank you for your information.
So the gloves not using horse hair ?
If the gloves using imf and still fast to break into pieces, i think i need to consider it again.

I don't know about the pro fight gloves, just the similar line of training gloves that also use IMF which you said the pro gloves use

Yes in the description it say using imf and i want to make it sure. At least i prefer horse hair with that price for the fight gloves lol.
As i remember the fight gloves 2-3 times more expensive than the training gloves, so i think the quality will be different.

Hey Guys any recommendations for a proper 16 OZ training glove.
I’ve had lots of brands already and I’m searching for a protective yet firm feeling/feedback. Lots of partner drills, heavy boxing work so the protection must be there + sparring when I’ll be sparring the nice guys I’ll put on my Phenom Gloves.

list of gloves I’ve had:
R2C 2 pairs
Phenom Boxing Gloves
UMA (loved it)
Winning
Huerto & Mexico (winning style)
Fairtex BGV-1/9
Paffen Sport
Hayabusa
ETC, ETC.
Decha/Danger/Joya/Twins/King/Booster/Triump United (love the Death Adders ordered em in 16 oz but they made a mistake and send me 14) this would be the perfect glove for what I’m currently searching in 16 oz however the shipping is €55 which would make em around €180. I punch through the 14 OZ, they’re still nice for bag & Pad work tho.

I was thinking about getting a pair of Rival Gloves (which version)? Adistar or Cleto Reyes. Possibly Top Boxer?
Any other recommedations?
All I really want is a glove where I can smash full power, compact heavy feedback and firmness on the right places.
Will be used for Kickboxing, Thaiboxing/Muay Thai, Boxing & MMA.

My recommendation you can try 1v1 pte, topboxer or rival rs1 other than from your list. They can’t go wrong. Those gloves are nice and friendly with your sparring partner. If you want unique one, you can try barric boxing.
