Hey guys! I figured since I didn't see any reviews on these on here and they were only like $40 I'd just snag em up and try em out!
Mind you I've only logged about 40 rounds or so on the bag/mitts so this is just a prelim review.. Upon receiving them I was excited to try them out at the gym but unfortunately there was no classes the whole week so I decided to try em out on my heavy bag at home, I love the pop you get when hitting the mitts with these though and since they're fight gloves I don't believe I'll hit the bag with them too often, I plan on using these for Mitts/DE mostly. They are a bit wider than my 12oz Reyes training gloves, I did a little bit of light sparring with them and going about 30-40% power I got not one complaint about them being hard or my knuckles going through, but then again I do put 2x LeRoy wraps on + I made my own knuckle guards with a whole set of LeRoy wraps (just wrapped them around my knuckles and put tape over the edge..)
I went with the gold/black combo and I really like the way these gloves look, the gold isn't really shiny, it's more of a dull gold color which looks pretty nice! I also have to put this out there now for anybody who doesn't like snug gloves, these are super snug with 2x LeRoy wraps on each hand and honestly they are really protective for being fight gloves.. I have nerve damage in my hands from being a diabetic so I'm extremely picky about my gloves, I'd absolutely LOVE if title made these in 16oz because they are extremely comfortable!
I guess one of my only complaints is that the stitching does look kinda weak in spots, but only time will tell if these last.. If I can get a good 6 months outta them I'll be happy to be honest because I didn't expect much at all from these at first.
For the price I paid for these I'm extremely happy with them for sure! I know they went up in price since the Holiday and are like $70 now, which isn't outrageous but I know there are a lot of other fight gloves around that price range or cheaper (Twins fight gloves are pretty cheap and nice as well!) But overall I'm really happy with my purchase! I'd give em an 9/10 rating
Pros-
Nice pop when hitting the mitts/pads
Extremely comfortable, feels broken in as soon as you put em on
Lining is smooth, hands don't get hot inside the gloves and they also dry fairly quickly
Snug, thumb isn't awkward feeling
Feel extremely light, basically like I have nothing on my hands at all
Cons-
Questionable stitching
Already have quite a few scuffs on the gloves after only a good 40 or so rounds with em.
