Great collection you have there buddy, thumbs up.

Could you write a word or two about 16 OZ Sandee boxing gloves? Can you compare them to Fairtex?

thanks!

^^ Nice gear man, those green twins look legit!

@Gregolian: How do you like the Platinums?

@owai: Nice gear man! Twins gloves look awesome and that Fairtex headgear makes me want to jizz.

 

[KStarGear]

I need to get some new fairtex gear. You guys are making me jealous.

@Gregolian: How do you like the Platinums?

They are surprisingly.. well, soft but they have been holding up pretty good and gave me more than enough cushioning that I didn't feel too much when I worked on mitts with them. Course, I did just get them today so this could all change.

How are you liking those Rogue shin pads by the way, do they protect well in heavy sparring?

Like, I am not sure how to describe them. Like, I could see using them as pillows almost but they are still pretty stiff. My only real issue is I have rather large wrists and forearms on to velcro them shut only like maybe at most 1.5 inches of the velcro is used at the very end of the strap.

Oh well, they were $170 gloves I got for like $40 on sale. They will cut it for me for awhile.


And, by the "they will just get softer" that's bad isn't it for bag gloves.

Those are bag gloves? Yeah I should have known, they do look like bag gloves. In that case, no they will most likely not get softer....well they will but not as much as a sparring glove would. And it takes a lot longer.

SSSSOOOOO, did I get an OK deal?

I didn't get sparring gloves because I have a friend that has two pairs and I always use his slightly newer pair. Apparently I hit hard even when I try not to.:redface:

I'm new and when the experienced guy goes "go ahead and don't go full bore but do put some weight into it" I get confused.

4 years ago I didn't know wtf that meant either. It was either throw a punch to knock you out or throw a punch so slow and weak that you don't mind catching it with your face.

I have decided it means for body blows and leg kicks go normal and to the face don't throw a power hook.

I'm surprised people are talking about the twins and not the top kings! Those top kings are freaking sexy man!

Waiting on a BP-02 from datsusara and a TON of gear from Thailand =) will post pics as soon as they come in!

Just got the Chute Boxe VT shorts today, and the Thaismai shorts a few weeks ago. Thinking about buying a pair of Top King 14 oz gloves for sparring. Love the Fairtex gloves, been using them for about 9 months now.
