Hi guys, thanks for taking the time to review our product. However, some of the statements are damaging to the brand and I think its very important we counter some of these claims especially the negatives you mentioned as all of which we would deem to be inaccurate..
- Wrist Support - you are not wearing the compression wrap at the correct hight for proper wrist support. The rubber end is very rigid and is applied to the wrap solely to go around the ball of the joint, in the video the rubber is at least 1-2inch below this joint - that is why you have very limited support. These can be worn with tape if you have troublesome wrists for an even more robust wrap.
-Size/bulk - The padding size in these is actually considerably smaller than a professional would wear come fight night and far less dense, enabling it to fit comfortably into all glove brand and sizes. (ive not heard of any issues with this model fitting into gloves, it was an issue in a older model ). We offer a gel attachment for those who want additional dense padding, which is very popular. Also its important to note the padding will reduce over its lifetime.
- you say, Having to buy wraps you can only buy with them?- the compression wraps come with the fastwraps and you can wear any hand wrap on top of these...
Some positives not mentioned , these are machine washable , incredibly robust and have helped un told number of boxers in there career , including Vasily Lomachenko after he broke his hand in a bout his team approached us to produce a custom set (with way more padding) which he wore all camp. The same was with Darren till and many more.
I hope you enjoy future products that are to be released.

Thanks for sharing! That's a cool story about Lomachenko; he's my favorite boxer. Best of luck with your future products! 👍🏼
I have these same wraps in the same color and shipping to the US takes too long and that was pre-virus. There should be a disclaimer for heavy punchers to avoid this product for it's flimsy padding.
This wasn’t a good look on your part to “counter” things he said when he’s reviewing your product. He was nice. You came off scummy.
I love these wraps; the main qualities they have are (as you say) brilliant knuckle protection and speed/convenience. I had knuckle issues for a long time: it didn't matter what gloves I used or what combination of gel-pads & wraps, it was always an issue if I was wrapping my own hands. These solved that at a stroke. No more knuckle problems.
Also: they are great if you do a lot of training alone. You can put them on in under a minute, and take them off in the same time. To properly wrap your own hands takes longer, in my experience. I have a busy life and time at the gym is precious, and I was always fighting the urge to rush wrapping my hands.
I have the pull-cord version and have never had any issues with wrist support or protection. I generally use the wraps to wrap around the wrist (since like you said, there is enough padding already on the knuckles).
I've also never had to alter/stretch the compartment on any gloves I own for these - although I find it hard to get my Cleto Reyes velcro closure on when I'm wearing them, so I use traditional wraps whenever I wear those. But other gloves: the fit doesn't feel any different from traditional wraps.
Anyway: good review, even if I disagree! You should maybe try to add some footage of you using the equipment to your videos. Gives it some more variety & breaks up the talking-head quality.
Thank you for the feedback! I think one of the issues I had with them is because most of my gloves I purchase have very snug hand compartments. If that weren't the case, I think the review would have gone differently. I know many people love these and I get that since the knuckle protection is so good
Thanks! you and thousands of others #HARNESSYOURPOWER
I got mine last week and it fits pretty well with my 18 Oz fly !
The knuckles protection is unbelievable and after using a bit of medical tape on the wrist it lock it pretty well I honestly didn't hit with that confidence in a very long time!
Good product highly recommended.
Thank you! They make very high quality gear
I have the pullcord version of these wraps due to both knuckle and wrist issues. They’re great. I rotate between two pairs. With the super slim version, I didn’t need to stretch my gloves at all. I use them in both my 16oz Sabas Proseries and my Rival Guerrero Bag gloves. Since using them, no hand or wrist issues. Definitely recommend getting some, but get the pullcord version, not the slip on, unless you’re on a budget.
That’s good to know. They definitely offer top notch hand protection
I just bought their new T1 super slim fast wraps and I love them.
Those are on my list to get too!
Great review! appreciate how through and complete you were.. based on your suggestions Box Raw developed a hand wrap exactly like that, that I use .
What if I slip these on and wrap a 4.5mm wrap over the top through the knuckles so I get a secure wrist will that be perfect for me as I have sprained tendons in my wrist and weak hands?
That could definitely work. Hand will be pretty big with all the protection, but if it fits in your glove, you’re good. Check out my review of the Fortress nano Fastwraps to see what it looks like with the method you’re asking about
The bottom right-hand picture in the shot is lower than the adjacent picture. I can never unsee this.

stellar review man, and definitely made the decision much easier to make for me, as buying hand wraps around $100 is not a mindless investment which can collect dust while still in the plastic. Wraps of this shape and status have to protect the wrists! How are they not? my most vulnerable area,, The wrist must be locked in place with room for only the slightest accidental flex while punching. And having the hand compartment of the actual glove get stretched is an element I had not even considered before. I only buy premium gloves and that is an absolute deal breaker on its own. Oh well, I guess I will have to invest that extra 90 seconds per hand while gearing up after all. Life can be so unfair at times. Thanks again for the great and candid review.
Their newer fast wraps are more compact and better than these. They are still pricey though
nice review! I also consider this hand wrap for a while as well. For your suggestion, I think Title and Punch equipment have something similar. They look like a half finger glove without palm part. They may have fixed on knuckle feel. Sometimes the old way is the best way.
Thanks so much!
they make something like you were explaining taking off the wrist portion. check out the boxraw knuckle guards. basically is what you’re explaining
Fortress makes a nano wrap now, I did a review of them and like them. I ordered the boxraw pair and am waiting on delivery 💪🏼
Normal wraps and a thin dish sponge folded in half. Best way.
I’ll have to try that!
Solid review, I’ve used my pull cords on winning, Barric, Bryant’s, and Fly didn’t have to stretch anything out (all 16oz). I sparred the other day using these & forgot to use the extra wrap and liked the feel a little better. Maybe doing a compression sleeve might be an option one day. Awesome review I appreciate the honesty and shoutout 🥊
Thank you sir! Keep up the excellent work with your company

Hey what will happen if I wrap 180 inch hand wraps around these would it be too thick?
Depends on how large your gloves hand compartment is, but likely yes, it would be too big. BUT, you can use 180” with their nano hand wraps. I have a review of those up too and show what that looks like
Most people don't need 180 inch wraps
I totally agree I like a very nice snug hand compartment 😎🙌🏼💯
🙏🏼 appreciate the feedback!
What if you hit incorrectly is the hand protected?
Maybe some? Knuckles are definitely protected. The rest of your hand joints and rest protection will depend on how you wrap those parts of your hand
Just ordered a pair of champ wraps from hector lombard(mma fighter) u should do a review
I saw those recently. They look pretty good!
Could you compare the fortress t1s and the boxraw knuckle guards? They seem like the two best options to me but I can’t decide
I can do that!
@@JordanMilleronyoutube that would be awesome 👌
You get in the boxing gloves with that?
Definitely depends on the gloves. Too tight in fight gloves or other compact ones. It works in average to larger glove compartments
Bro mine didn't come with the instructions on how to adjust the Gloves can you respond with information please, good review
Hey there! Thanks for the comment. I was wrong when I stated that about having to adjust your gloves. That was true for an older version of these fast wraps. You do not need to do that for these fast traps
@@JordanMilleronyoutube oh brilliant thanks alot, i was gonna chance it on my winnings and was fearful ghis definitely makes them more worth it on face value Thanks✌🏽
Hey mate great video keep up the good work
two questions, firstly is the winning wraps the next review or you got something else in mind?
Secondly i'm still undecided on what gloves to get
my choices pretty much have boiled down to the rival guerro hdef (no intellishock d30) The rival rb10, rival rb11, and the hybusha t3, i will be doing very heavy bagwork, like full power punching and i just can't decide, i'm still a lil worried about the guerro only coming in 10 ounce, no clue, i can't decide, you pick which one and ima just go with it. Thanks for the help
Thank you!
Yeah, I'm planning on doing the Winning wraps and gel pads together for next video.
For gloves, I like the Rival RS11V out of those options if you think 10 oz is too small. I've used the sparring version of those gloves on the bag before and they are VERY protective. They hold your hand in a good first position too.
@@JordanMilleronyoutube you think the rsv11 beats the rival evolution 11 bag gloves and the rb10s? Alright I'll look into it, thanks so much man
1. Go Tar Heels!
2. Thanks for the review.
I'll just have to stick with wrapping my hands.
Go heels! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Wich size did you get, and what is your hand measurements?
I got a Medium. My hand measurement is 8.5 cm. Medium feels great on my hand, I wouldn't change that.
When you order do they come as a pair or separately ?
They come as a pair with one pair of wraps
personal experience; these are shit, 100% don't buy
That’s too bad
