Worst - Valour Strike
I would describe the cheap feeling leather as ‘baggy’ and wrinkled even when you make a fist. I have never used a glove on a heavy bag which was almost silent until I used these because the foam was like mush.
Valour strike Pro Power leather training gloves. Utter and complete junk. The leather and the foam underneath have not even be introduced!

I have never used a glove on a heavy bag which was almost silent until I used these because the foam was like mush. The thumb was the most uncomfortable I have ever tried and the Valour Strike label stitched onto the wrist strap was hard plastic and so sharp that if you used it for sparring would most likely slash your sparring partner. Sent them back immediately.
Bro, if you really had cleto reyes, you would remember lol.I have a pair of Twins and a pair of Ringside Tech gloves that I really like. My least favorite was Top Contender, but that could be because the pair I used was pretty smelly, old, and worn out by years of use.
I think I also used some Cleto Reyes gloves, which were ok.
If he had the first generation of Ringside Reyes, they were not that memorable. They didn't have that beautiful glossy finish, the smell wasn't as strong, thumb seem was super uncomfortable, latex padding was so soft it was easy to bottom them out.Bro, if you really had cleto reyes, you would remember lol.
Are Cletos really as good as people say? Are they better than TopBoxer?
I had the 16 oz Cleto Reyes training gloves. They were awesome for mitt and bag work, however, not so much for sparring. Also, I had the velcro and the wrist support was a bit lacking.Are Cletos really as good as people say? Are they better than TopBoxer?
You thought the velco wrist support on the Reyes was lacking really interested any Velcro wrist you think is better?I had the 16 oz Cleto Reyes training gloves.

That's a good question because I only have limited experience with different gloves (Cleto Reyes, Classics and Casanova). From those 3, Casanova had the best wrist support, but of course it was laces instead of velcro.You thought the velco wrist support on the Reyes was lacking really interested any Velcro wrist you think is better?

I had an older Reyes velcro gloves 16oz with floppy wrist syndrome, and a newer (I think) one with pretty good wrist support, Reyes seem to vary a lot
the actual design changes rather than it being quality controlThere's an old impression saying that you only buy cars that were built on a Tuesday or something along lines. Meaning that the quality of the work that the employees put in would be better on the days where they are willing to put the effort in. I wonder if that holds true for many of the boxing gloves manufacture.
