Better 16oz training glove

[eneyman86**]

Hey all, I just wanted an opinion on which 16+ oz training glove is better for bag work only. I am looking at the Fairtex Heavy hitter vs the Windy hook and loop Training in 16oz. I will use them only on the heavy bag so which will hold up longer etc..

thanks

I have not used either but from other people's experience's at the gym and on here it seems that the 2 brands are very comparable. The price point is a big difference between the two so if you can't decide between the two I would go with the much cheaper windy's. Personally I am going to be picking these http://www.round1fightshop.com/store/product.php?productid=16166&cat=25&page=1up in the next week or so. A little more than the Windy's but good all purpose gloves.

You shouldn't be using your 16oz gloves on a heavy bag. It will drastically shorten the life of those gloves. I have the Windy hook and loop and I love them.

I thought those windy and fairtex that I posted are all purpose and good to use on heavy bag?

Both of them look like good choices. If I had to pick between those two and I'd be using them just for bagwork, since I'm a HW I'd probably go with the Fairtex Heavy Hitters, but you can't go wrong with the Windy's and they'd be a good choice too. If you're not a really heavy hitter, you could probably save some bucks and go with the Windys.

I'm going to be using 16oz CSI Thai-Style Training gloves for bag and padwork, as per recommendations of a very wise man (Boomer, got them at www.cagesidemma.com), and they look similar to the Windy training gloves.

They are both High quality gloves...i have heard only good thinks about both of them. I personally have only used the Windy glove and they are great.

The price is the real difference I think.
