My Zepol (father) gloves arrived from Juan. They are very comfortable. They have an already broken in feel. The leather is soft and pliable and the padding is excellent. I love the way the Zepol builds the thumb pocket on the gloves. I am able to make a very natural fist and can easily open my hand. The lacing is basically 5/8" strips of herringbone weaved cotton that allows for 3 full revolutions around the wrist. I really like how these gloves look and feel. I have not tried them out for sparing yet but hope to this week.
I look forward to hearing from those of you that bought other brands of gloves.
