That was easy to see comingJust sent this one back. Even in size XL, half of my eyes are covered by the top part of the headgear.

Fair point, should've seen that...That was easy to see coming
The bvg9 will be good for you good feedback and fine for long bag sessions.ill consider it. maybe light sparring with the bgv9s or the aliens (ill be going to a new gym soon so ill have to check to see if their bags are soft enough to use win1s, it would be more convenient as an all rounder for those random 1 round sparring sessions). i dont think ill be able to afford another pair of gloves for awhile if i do decide to save up for winning headgear. saw a dude saying if he could go back he'd just save up and buy winnings headgear. so i might just take his advice and do that.
do you by any chance know where u can get winning headgear for possibly cheaper than the official website at 325usd?
i really like that springy recoil off the bag with punchers gloves, the feedback too and the fact i can feel every punch. does the bgv9s fit this category? and do you think they are comfortable, protective enough and durable to use for long bag sessions?
do win1s feel bad on the aqua bag too?
ill use my flys X for sparring only as i wanna preserve that.
i really appreciate the help! sorry for having so many questions!
The new models of the flys seem more suited towards bags then sparring tbhI really didn’t like 16oz win1 or fly on the bag felt they was too soft. Bvg9 are a bit hard for sparring the Reyes should be ok once they are broken in a few people spar in those at gyms I use. Or get some bvg9 for bag and pads and win1 stock model to spar in
New fly glove models?The new models of the flys seem more suited towards bags then sparring tbh
Its been reported in a few different places (here, youtube, reddit), the padding has changed significantly in the superloop/superlace gloves both X-line & Premium. Supposedly much denser and firmer.New fly glove models?
Oh interesting I hadn’t seen that I did hear that the x line might have changed. That’s interesting any idea when that change happened? I can’t really justify a 2nd pair to check hahaIts been reported in a few different places (here, youtube, reddit), the padding has changed significantly in the superloop/superlace gloves both X-line & Premium.

i think the change happened around when the new colours came in for the x line so decemberishOh interesting I hadn’t seen that I did hear that the x line might have changed. That’s interesting any idea when that change happened? I can’t really justify a 2nd pair to check haha
Fly have said that the padding is unchanged. Maybe the material being used is different which could account for the different feel in terms of stiffness. When I talked them about the tightness of my premium they said it was because the ox blood leather is thicker than their other leathers I think different thickness and stiffness of Materials could be what people are experiencing ini think the change happened around when the new colours came in for the x line so decemberish
i have the fly premiums and they're very dense compared to my old fly x's which were suppose to be the same as premiums. Apparently talking to a few people, the new x line is even more stiff then the new premiums

Ok well I am only passing on what fly have saidBut even if that was the case it doesn't change the fact that the X and premium line are much firmer and worse to be hit by now then the gloves you could receive 9 months ago
Fait point, that's why I sent back the Twins BVGL, couldn't see anything out of that.
But I think there are some headgears that almost don't hinder your vision, like the Hayabusa T3.
Btw, if someone knows where I can find a T3 (the full face, with the chin protection in size L/Xl (for my Henry Cejudo type of head), feel free to PM me
