I bought Twins gloves in 2012 and Hayabusa Ikusa gloves in 2013, followed by a bunch of other gloves like Fairtex, Reyes, and Ringside. Anyway, my Hayabusa Ikusa 16 oz gloves have always been convenient for quick training sessions, but they’re worn out now. I regret not buying leather gloves before because the synthetic ones always had a horrible smell. Now, I’m considering getting a new pair, but I’m wondering if I should go for leather this time to avoid the same issue."
It just depends on the quality of synthetic, for example most rival gloves are synthetic and don't have that smell at all. I also adore the Adidas 350 speedtilts which use cactus leather. Some leathers also suffer from that bad smell mostly due to the chemicals used to treat and dye the leather.
Such an informative video thank you! I've been looking at these for a while, I currently use Venum elites but I want something with more wrist support. Should I get 14 or 16oz gloves? Thanks
The 12oz gloves are just as good and perfect for pad & bag work. They feel super supportive and give you confidence to punch well and stay protected at the same time.
I’ve been using Everlast Elite 14oz nearly a year now ( been boxing for just over 2 years ) and the elastic on the right glove started to tear ( probably gonna tear off completely within a month or two ) and the padding on the knuckles started to deform. I will buy T3 but my question is should I buy 14oz or 12oz for both sparring and mitt/heavybag training?
I train quite a lot, but I’m debating whether i should buy the normal t3 or the t3 lx. What do you think? Which one is better for boxers who train 4/5 times a week?
Right now my friend... Would have to be the Boon Classics but I want to use the rival RS100's as they felt AMAZING on the hands. You looking at AUD or USD? 🙏
@fightingspirit93 USD. I have had the T3s for 8 months. I love them, however I'm looking for another pair specifically for sparring with a partner. After 1 year of looking, the names that come up are HitNMove Balance, Primo Emblem 2.0, Eizo, Rival RSV 100, Cream, Reaper and Boon. I'm 6'3", 165lbs. My hands are long, so I need something that has a longer thumb than the T3. My biggest need is the padding for my sparring partner's face, lol. I'm not in a rush, but I would like to know which one feels the best.
@@2linefitness450 finger and thumb length are the hardest to get right! I'd recommend a more traditional boxing gloves over Thai gloves as many Thai gloves have a notably shorted finger length. In saying that... The primo 2.0s are MASSIVE and have alot of padding across the board, so they may be perfect for your hands. 👊
Nobody said they ever in the top... They are terrible gloves. They soak in sweat, deform, with marginal wrist support that is likely less than it's equal price competition, and only may be comprable to major retailers' gloves. Nothing special. Nothing worth 150-200 usd. It definitely feels nice the first time you try it, first 90 days arnt too bad. They do come stiff but with daily use even with proper or above average care. They will deteriorate quickly. Instead of the outside padding getting broken in first it was the inner padding that gave up
In the top? Good feedback regardless bud! I do agree the breathability isn't great when wearing them but like most gloves they should last if you take good care of them and have a 2nd pair to cycle between, although I really don't like the thumb padding, a really gross material option in my opinion. 🤣 The wrist support IMO is absolutely better than 95% of other boxing gloves out there, when you have the combo of the double wrist wrap and splint, it does a much better job at keep the wrist stable. I totally agree that the padding is the T3 weakest part, it's very stiff and doesn't feel like it would break in for quite some time.
Couldnt agree more mate, if you see anyone with 10-12oz gloves or some Mexican Gloves, especially Cleto's, you should know that they don't like you! 😂😂😂
I wondered what a "feature" would be on a boxing glove, learned a lot great vid
There's so much marketing in this industry and not alot of evidence, so it's nice to see feature/s that actually do what they state! 🙏
@@fightingspirit93 mil gracias
Great review!
Thank you brother 🙏😅

@@fightingspirit93 İ BOught cleto reyes horse hair fight gloves it is also smells horrible
@@mbaadiablo Yeah its not just synthetics!
Do you still need to use hand wraps with the gloves? or is it fine to go without them?
You absolutely should, regardless of what anyone tells you!
Especially if you want them to last 👊
Love the kanpeki version (same model but smooth leather version of it)
Yeah they look awesome! 👍
Such an informative video thank you! I've been looking at these for a while, I currently use Venum elites but I want something with more wrist support. Should I get 14 or 16oz gloves? Thanks
Well these will definitely improve that, how much do you weigh? That could play a big factor.
@fightingspirit93 thank you for your reply. I'm currently 95kg but im on a weight loss journey so my aim is to get to 85 or possibly 80kg eventually
@robjaques512 nice mate, well I think either would be fine then, definitely 16oz if you intend to spar however!
The 12oz gloves are just as good and perfect for pad & bag work. They feel super supportive and give you confidence to punch well and stay protected at the same time.
Thanks for the feedback legend, will definitely need to give the 12oz a run!
Great video, thank you. Always had wrist issues with my fairtex, going to try the T3 now!
Glad it helped mate, lemme know how they go!

These will be a big step up in quality for you mate! What height and weight are you? That will assist 😁👍
@@fightingspirit93thanks for the reply man, I am 176 cm and 72 kg.
12oz for sure 👍🙏
I train quite a lot, but I’m debating whether i should buy the normal t3 or the t3 lx. What do you think? Which one is better for boxers who train 4/5 times a week?
Definitely the normal T3s in my opinion, if you can splurge and get yourself 2 pairs of gloves to switch between, then go the LX 👊❤️
T3 or Cleto Reyes? Saludos
I sworee I answered this, is YT being strange? 😂
is Hayabusa ok for Muay Thai?
For sure, they may just not be as useful in the clinch as other gloves, just depends on what you need from your glove 🙏
I would love to know your absolute favorite 16oz glove for sparring with a price limit of $250ish!

@@gonzalezinti1662 Super easy, my next video will be the classics review! 😍

Many Gym’s think they are to hard for sparring🧐….don’t bring gloves to sparring that you wouldn’t want to get smacked yourself in the face with🥊🥊🥊
