Post Your Gloves/Gear

[CJ1]

Hey guys,

What color winning gloves/head gear is your favorite or most popular?
I was thinking all white everything looked dope

I understand this boils down to one's personal preference, but this is a great question. We've got one vote for white; ANYONE ELSE want to share their thoughts?

Black.

Black.

plus it probably holds the resale value best compared to other colours, once it's well used anyway

Indeed. I really like the look of white gloves, but they get dirty really fast and appears older then they actually are.

Well back from training. These are the best gloves i've ever used so far. I have tiny baby wrists and these secure my wrists so well it's crazy. Great padding, comfortable inside and thumb, sick color options.

100% recommend them.

What other gloves have you used extensively? How do they compare?

I actually used to train Kickboxing for a while because I live in the Netherlands, but switched over to boxing about 1,5 years ago because I just don't like the kicking part of it. I started out with a pair of Venum Challenger 3.0's I got from a friend of mine. Bought a pair of Twins BGVL3's when I really started getting addicted to training. Also got a pair of Fairtex BGVL9's for the heavy bag which I still really like and continue to use, but those are actually closer to a western boxing glove than a muay thai glove, the padding is just too thin for sparring use.

I like my Twins because the padding is really forgiving, but the wrist support is just non existent for me so I decided to get these Rivals. Will probably alternate between the Fairtex and Twins on the bag.

So far, I really like them. The padding is really hard and protective. Did approx 30 rounds and they are still stiff. The only negative would be how hot they get inside. They are Tokushu hot lol

I've got a red pair of the bag gloves version of these gloves coming in next week.
Really excited to try them out as I have knuckle issues from using sub-par gloves so far.

RS11-V Sparring Gloves, 16 OZ.

Got these in gold 16oz. Love 'em other than the fact they are synthetic leather.

My pros
- wrist support is awesome with the padding over the cuff as well as the wrist lock. Really love that feature as I can tighten the cuffs really well and the velcro strap is wide.
- padding is moderately soft; softer than Fairtex BGV-1, bit harder than a Twin BGV3.
- hand compartment is perfect for my hands so fit is snug with hand wraps
- no issues with the thumb. I started noticing I had issues with the Fairtex BGV-1 after coming back to them from these.
- the combination of wrist and snug compartment makes my hands feel totally coddled. It's padded and aligned for punching hard like (obviously) none of the MT gloves I've had have done. When put it on, it felt just right. I've tried on Fairtex BGV9s and the Reyes hybrid training gloves and the feel of the fit on these are much better for me.
- fairly compact (equal to Fairtex BGV-1 and much better than Twins BGV3)
- feel light. I tried Hayabusa T3s on back to back and these felt lighter and just right. The T3 felt bulky and overwrought.

Dislikes;
- very hot! These come out super wet after training and for me, got smelly quickly
- I miss the feeling of a leather surface like the BGV-1s. That glove has sexy leather for me.
- Graphics are a bit much
- Obviously suboptimal for MT in clinch and catching kicks. It's a boxer's glove after all. The wrist is locked and there is no padding along the outside of the wrist like on the Fairtex. A guy at my gym also doesn't like it for catching kicks as the wrist cannot be bent. Again, not the glove as it's not for that.
- the alignment and wrist feels so good but I worry my wrists will get weaker due to the support.

Overall the next glove I am considering for pad and bag are the Rivals RB11, RB1, Guerrerros, UMA RT41s, or something laced.

How do you like these? Is the padding protective of the knuckles or are they hard? Are there better bag/pad gloves in your stable?

 

[Kick_@ss_Seabass]

I like them very much. Used them only on my 150lb heavy bag so far. Super protective. Yes the padding is hard at first and takes time to soften up, but i have not had any knuckle pain so far.

Like your RS11V, they get hot like hell. I use a winter mitts dryer with cool air setting to dry my gloves and never had any bad smell.

These are my TopBoxer custom set.

The white pair is for sandbag and mitt and the maroon coloured set is for sparring.

I think that arabic embroidery looks amazing. I couldnt choose what to embroider but I searched Internet for tattoo images and got the arabic characters.

The set is just awesome, satisfying.

The boots shows a great performance.

They all look fantastic, but I especially like the boots... wow!
