Frayed stitch there on the cuff. When you say the wrist support is good -- in comparison to what is it good?

Is the $139 still an introductory price? Or were they reduced from $179?
 
I love these gloves. Did u get to weigh them out yet?
 
they are true weight, they moved down to 139, dunno if they are going back up to 179

Where Minow? what pic?

I'd say wrist support is a good 8.2, its not the best I just wish it was stiffer
 
Great review.
But not much impressive gloves :) They are like the Japanese baseball league - not bad at all, but who would watch it instead of MLB?

The thumb in new hybrid Reyes is more natural than in standard models. Honestly they seem to be a lot better option than Invicto. But maybe it's just me.

Btw really love the appearance of Everlast MX training gloves leather, but except the leather they are not much praised usually :(

What does 8.2 mean? Lol. Just an arbitrary number -- what other gloves are they comparable to? Is the wrist support worse than other Mexican brands?

MX Gloves seem to use great materials, too bad about the craftmanship being supposedly poor and the high price. That and the lack of knuckle protection, though the wrist is meant to be good.

that's good to hear, that's why I stated in my review, the price needed to be lowered on these gloves some.

I always rate on a grading scale, so 8.2 is on a scale of 10 or 82 out of 100, I feel it was a B-, better than some gloves but not ground breaking, it was better than adequate but its not the best wrist support ive come across. Its kind of like Zepol wrist support, not as good as Reyes

I see it Minow, gotta break out the lighter!

BTW I need a new camera, this camera sucks, the pics got totally washed out in some photos. The black almost appears green...? in some and in others it looks the way its supposed to.

What are Reyes velcro 14 oz. according to this scale in terms of wrist support?
 
Reyes ,for a Velcro id say it USED to be the BEST Velcro ive owned till I got my new winnings.

Id rate my winning Velcro a solid 10 in terms of velcro, my reyes Velcro like a 9 now,

Overall the wrist support of my winning Velcro is only outdone by my traditional lace (not elastic) Beaulieus.

My reyes overall is probably a 8.7 while its good for Velcro overall I need to compare it vs the other gloves Ive owned and tried.

Cuz when dealing with Velcro you need to use 2 scales imo. how it compares vs other Velcro and how it compares vs a laceup

The Reyes strap is very thick very supportive. My wrist doesn't flex too much. In laceups even in the traditional sense, the cuff can be too soft allowing for more flex than I want.

does that make sense shihtzu?
5.9 or below a F
think of it like this a 6.0-6.9 D
7.0-7.9 C etc

Absolutely, my buddy. Thank you, got it.
Basically I was curious whether or not velcro Reyes have a better wrist support than Invicto and it seems they have (despite Invicto are lace-up).

Among expensive gloves Rival RB10 are a good example of an about 5 (or even below) wrist support.

I found the wrist support on my Reyes gloves to be a bit lacking, flimsy even. A 6 out of 10 I'd say.

Good review though. I, like a few others, was wondering how these gloves stacked up. Invicto seems like Ringside's answer to getting snubbed by Grant. I just don't understand why Ringside doesn't offer more color options, as color options/customization seems to be an important element of the higher-end market.
 
Wow really that lacking on the wrist support? Curious where did you buy your Reyes straight from mexico or from an american vendor? They are quite different i assure you.

Agreed, for velcro Reyes are pretty supportive. Far from Hayabusa Tokushu, but really good in general. Even those 10 oz. velcro I used to have were decent enough.
