Got these Reyes gloves last week and all I can say is WOW! These are the perfect glove. Snug, perfect knuckle alignment, great wrist support. Not too much length on the cuff. Good padding. When you put them on, you just wanna punch. Every shot feels crisp and powerful with great snap. The look and the smell are AWESOME!!!!
You know what would be interesting...a video about the history of fight gloves. As in going through the timeline of when specific brands started to be used in fights. In the 50's gloves were just red/brown, but where there brands back then? Even in the 90's and early 00's I remember some fighters wore plain red gloves (Arturo Gatti Vs Micky Ward 2) so I always wondered what brand those were.
great review! i was thinking about these purely for sparring because of how much i like regular cletos, but the comparison with the BVG1’s and the rest of the review told me everything i needed to know!
Humbled of your comment my friend! I think everyone else that does this has their own quirks and ways of explaining things! I love all comers...I am the toughest of the bunch though I'm POSITIVE I'd win in a boxing match against all of them lmao I'm just playing of course!
One of the best pairs I've trained with, to me its better than Winning, break in is about 2 weeks and you'll understand why its better than Winning. I bought them in August 2020 and my only gripe is that the logo is already peeling off, hate that shit. Other than that...no real complaints.
Hey Nott Me, have you had the regular training gloves before the extra padding? How did they compare for you? Would you recommend these as an all around glove for hand protection and long-lasting performance?
Hey! Awesome video. Looking to getting either these or the normal Reyes training gloves. My knuckles have no problems but my wrist does sometimes hurt a little bit but nothing crazy. So im just curious of which ones you'll recommend? I'm 5'8, 160 lb, so not that big 😅
Not to correct you anymore than people already have lol but it’s pronounced like “eh-cho” (Hecho) the H is silent awesome videos as always keep up the great work!
So these are an appreciably safer training glove than the standard model for someone with a lot of power? I'm 6' and float between 165-90lbs and have fairly slender hands. Even with 180" wraps I frequently hand pain in my hand from powerful hooks. I've never tried Reyes gloves, but I've had pain thru all the higher end Title and Ringside 16oz gloves. The best I've felt thus far were Hayabusa Kanpeki Elites, which are no longer made. I could just ease up of course, but it's fun to be able to throw power shots with confidence. Right now Sir Isaac Newton is giving me a little of my own medicine. Liked and subscribed, I appreciate the depth of your descriptions.
I also use the kanpeki elites, the prior model with the two bars going up the back of the hand. I also punch very hard and those take it easy on my wrist but even my shoulders and etc. I do see they still sell kanpeki elites but they are newer version which I haven’t used . My gloves are still doing well but Iv thought about getting a second pair just to have it. The one I have though is the Velcro and lace version . They sent me that one as a replacement by mistake and it felt better overall for me . I figure maybe it’s best to get the newer version before they come out with some other design change for the sake of having a new version to sell
Nice review man! What’s the wrist protection like, i usually use rivals with wrist lock protection, I can’t bend my wrist by accident with those at all, I’d love a pair of these but I’ve heard you can bend your wrist easily?
I agree with the guy below don’t know how you don’t have more subs I deffenetly see you growing on your videos like how you where shadow boxing and talking about them showcasing them. Nice man keep it up and thank you I just got these gloves last month and due to COVID I’m recovering and still haven’t tried them in the heavy bag but I’m itching to be back( I do Muay Thai).
Sup man nice video !! I have heard that reyes has gone down on quality, so how does this gloves have done until now? Intrested on buying a pair and dont want to get mad XD
I have heard the same and I will admit the newer pair I have are still great BUT do feel...different. I am unsure how to explain but they are still awesome. Little tighter hand compartment and what not but otherwise they still feel great. These feel good and they are still lasting very well. Would just prefer the standard training glove compared to these in general.
@@combat_corp Thanks man, yeah I do feel standards gloves are better on hand feeling but I really need that extra padding so I was just nervous about the quality on these glove.
Thanks for the review, I was looking for a confirmation about the upside pressure on my middle knuckle from someone else and you mentioned it. It has been giving me a discomfort too for which I ended up desiding to sell these pair. Could you make a review about the new high precision gloves? Those ones looks promising about comfort, I’m planning to buy those but I just need more info upfront
@@matthewscott7357 which you prefer? The extra padding or just the regular training gloves? I'm going to save up money for these gloves, been wanting cleto reyes for a long time
Hey Al great vid dude!, I have a question man do you think you could do a review on the “venum impact boxing gloves” I’ve been on the edge on buying these but I’m not sure if I should get it. It’d mean a lot to me man your vids are hella dope bruh so even if you don’t do a review on it I’m still watching the vids homie. Later👋🥊
@@combat_corp yoooooo U DA MAN AL 🥊🥊 keep the great work up dude. I check my notifications every day n ur insta to see if there’s a vid up, that should say something. Later dude 🥊
The Grant looks thicker than the Reyes Extra Padding. I just wonder whether it offers the same wrist support because it has a shorter cuff? (Nice video btw!)
Even their 18oz hurts my thumb, too bad they don’t make the inside wider. Also, on the finger tips you feel the stitching inside. Rival put felt there on rb11 I have.
I have a injury on my right knuckle. I just bought the normal training 16oz but im afraid that i will injure mmyselfbecause of the padding. Is it alot of a difference ?
Hmm hard to decide which cleto reyes I wanna buy im like 6 foot 170 pounds i do got like long piano fingers wouldnt say my hands are super large hmmm what yall think?
I was probably speaking in generality but yes mine I believe are just the standard latex. I believe the orthopedic foam versions cost $800 or more...yikes
Hey Al, I'm looking at either getting the Winning MS-600-B or the Cleto Reyes Extra Padding. After your experience with both, would you say the Winning is worth spending twice the cost? Do you think the Cleto Extra Padding version would be a more appropriate contender against the Winning as compared to the Cleto original version? I would use them as an all purpose glove since I can't buy multiple version, but I have Fairtex BGV1's now and have already injured my knuckles with those and want more protection so I can keep punching without hurting myself! Thanks!
Bro you have all them cletos, do the boxing world a favor and donate a pair to the future wbc heavyweight champion. I'll tell you where to send them. I appreciate your review of these gloves I'm going to get a pair I don't have bad hands but I'm a heavyweight and I punch a lot. I will get the usual hands pain here and there but nothing crazy my wrist and knuckles are conditioned well but the bones in my hand aches sometimes. I think from tight hand wraps and punching not entirely sure. But I'm going to get one of the two gloves just don't know if I should go with the basic trainers or extra padding for the overall. I'll will be using them for sparring, mitts and bag gloves so a bit of everything
Ehhhhhhhhh. Yknow, I would say regular kickboxing without the clinch, absolutely. However, they are a little stiffer due to the extra padding and they took a little bit to break in so in my opinion, not the BEST for thai kickboxing...but they aren't the worst either
Hey Al, would you say that these compare protection and performance-wise to the Winning velcro training glove? I want hand protection and a long lasting glove that is super versatile, but would rather not pay more than $200.
I would like to ask, how about sizing so I am interested if training gloves 14oz IS biger.. I took 14oz extra pading and they are realy snug.. I would like to take 14 training gloves or maybe 16oz...how are New models if you tryed
I am a beginner and I am looking for a glove for both bag and sparring. Do you recommend these extra padded Cleto Reyes? I am slim 5.55 feet and weigh 148 pounds.
great review answered lot of questions i had. one thing i heard in other reviews is that people complain how heavy they are ie 16oz feels really like 20oz. You think thats the case? I plan on using them for bags sparring and mitts. I never bought a regular reyes because i heard sparring partners complain of it feeling like a bare fist. these sounded perfect for all but i dont want to wear "18oz" gloves as sparring partners get to wear 16 oz btw im 6ft 165
So it is a good concern to have but in general, the weight does not effect the padding as much if that makes any sense. Ozs are a measurement of weight and Reyes stays consistent with that padding threshold but yes sometimes Reyes has been known to make a glove slightly heavier due to the fact that latex is a very difficult material to pinpoint dead on accurate. Rival has the same issue with a lot of their gloves but even Russ Anber (owner of rival) has a video out there saying "focus more on the padding in the glove compared to the weight." Great example is to look at most amateur fight gloves. They might be 10-12 ozs but they are actually a lot more padded than a traditional 16 oz training glove. Heavier gloves were primarily designed for shoulder resistance so as you said if you are 165 pounds, 18 ozs might be naturally too heavy for you (not saying you can't do that I am sure you are plenty strong) but you may want to look into 14 ozs vs 16 ozs but 165 is right on that threshold. My advice would be to go with the standard of 16 oz for now and that should be just fine. Your body will naturally adapt to something heavier but don't be so concerned with the weight of the glove at the moment as it shouldn't effect your sparring rounds my friend. Sorry for the long winded answer, I hope this helps somewhat if not, just comment again!
@@combat_corp all good appreciate the response. I was looking into the everlast MX heard good things saw you had a video on that as well but didn't see it thru yet. Do you prefer reyes or the mx or are they very different? Thanks
I looked into those years ago when getting my first pair of nice gloves. I punch really hard so it’s easy for me to tweak my wrists if I’m not spot on with my punches . I got them in 14 oz. they feel very stiff for me. Again I punch hard so I can feel it even in my shoulders on a heavy bag . Maybe I should have gotten 16 oz. I do use hayabusa kanpekis 16 oz. I got them both at the same time years ago. The haybusa has Velcro and lacing. They don’t make that one anymore but what I can say is that I can punch as hard as I want and have a way easier time . Unless I land totally wrong I’m fine . Iv been looking into new gloves . I like the idea of cletos and looked at these gloves years ago but idk. I often hit the bag so idk if it’s smart to go with gloves known for less overall protection . Fairtex just feel stiffer but if your looking for wrist support they don’t offer any special wrist support, it’s a thin Velcro strap. Nothing will help more than punching slow and feeling were the knuckle lands and then picking up the pace tho. The Hayabusa gloves are pretty great for what it’s worth.
I find it extremely difficult to close my first in these. Also find the padding digs in to the back of my knuckles over time when training and leaves them sore. Usually wear Twins gloves but really wanted to try a pair of these rayes. Hopefully a few weeks will tell a different story when they are broken in
I unfortunately will not do that with these gloves my friend! Reyes is just too close to home for me to do that with lol. I can get a red pair of gloves and do that though
Цена на него и в будущем она будет очень полезна для нас и не услышу как можно дальше жить в этом случае мы должны были сделать все возможное для того что ты хочешь но хлопок это ещё и с его приходом к нам

Iv had these as my main gloves for 5 or 6 years. They're worn but still use them every day and they don't seem anywhere near done. I love them.
Hey Nott Me, have you had the regular training gloves before the extra padding? How did they compare for you? Would you recommend these as an all around glove for hand protection and long-lasting performance?
so can i expect them to last a long time if i use them everyday?

how much do they weigh and do they feel overweight?
They do not feel overweight. Each glove is 16.8 oz so as reyes suggests, they are hard to gauge

Just don't use wrist protection and you will find out sooner or later...
