Another great review. Thank you Carlo. I’ll never buy a new pair of gloves without first checking your channel out for an informative review. Have a good weekend my brother. Keep up the great work!
I got a pair of fly superlace x early this month. I didnt have time to break them in and the lining inside at the tip of my index and middle finger ripped off. I was disappointed a bit. Other than that, i didnt like the curved thumb, it was putting my thumb in a weird position and i was landing shots and hurting it. From the experience i had i would choose winnings any day before fly even at the higher price point. I have my winnings since 2016 and the only bad thing about them is the smell.
I'm torn between these and the Sabas Bella Series. I need gloves that would match my white winnning headgear and white winning cup since decently priced winnings sparring gloves are harder to find at the moment. But I also want the Bella's. :/
That’s a good toss up, it really depends on what features you’re looking for. The Flys are definitely more protective balances glove, where the Bella’s are more of a punchers glove with the horse hair. The Bella’s are also a little more compact and broken in feeling, where the flys are a tad larger and a little less broken in but still feel great.
Did not know these even existed, very interesting if the only difference really is just the outer shell. I wonder how durable their synthetic leather is compared to other high quality synthetic leather gloves such as by the Rival RS100 sparring series. Maybe I'll grab a pair of these and simply tape on a layer or 2 of leather-tape on the striking surface.... should result in the same as their leather models, right? ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
Yes, they just came out with these versions a few weeks ago and the synthetic leather looks identical to Winning "leather". I know that Winning has a long standing reputation as a great glove, but I've always wondered if their leather was genuine and not synthetic, these new Fly X gloves only strengthens that question because of how similar it is to genuine Winning gloves.
@@csquaredboxing yea this an interesting comparison reveal... i know winning states that their headgear is synthetic leather.... whatever the case is; make sure the Winning police doesn't go after u for starting this leather legitimacy concern on their gloves lol. even if Winning gloves' leather has been synthetic all this time, i can't be surprised that finally another company is producing extremely similar leather/synth-leather ... Winning/Japan in general have always been ahead of time in many innovations.
LOL, Winning police, that's funny! As far as the leather on Winning being genuine or not, it doesnt take away from the fact that the gloves are still great gloves that will continue to be a top choice for pro athletes. I think companies like Fly have just caught up to Winning, which was bound to happen; its the evolution of business, make a great product and eventually the competitors will even the playing field. But yeah, I'll do a side to side comparison so you guys can see how similar the "leather" is and make your own judgement from there, but they look REALLY similar.
I just bought these gloves last week and I wish I bought these instead if my winnings. I'll take these over winnings any day. The best synthetic gloves.
Hey Carlo! Thank you so much for continuing to review the latest gear and listening to the community! I'm an beginner crossing into intermediate in the sport, and are looking for new gloves. Between the Fly superloop x vs Rival rival rs11v, which would you prefer? at that 200$ price point?
John Huynh to be honest maybe because its just me. I feel rs11v feel so bad with my hand wrap on that i need extra force to make a fist. Somehow with fly super loop x and gloves like Rfx Guerrero sparring its broken in ,really comfortable and natural to make a fist. For mitt work i mostly use a everlast Mx pro fight glove and for bag and sparring fly super lace and rival Guerrero is my favourite
Right on brother, appreciate the support and welcome to the channel. I’ve been training on and off since 2001 when I was 18. Did some amateur fights when I was in the Air Force in Clovis, NM/ Lubbock/ TX between 2003-2004. Took a hiatus because of work and started training back in 2011 again.
Thanks for your review Interesting as always In your opinion does these gloves look as durable as cleto ? Would you pay extra money for winning gloves? And the last one... How do they compare to sabas gloves in terms of internal size? I have bought sabas premium gloves 16oz and they were too small for me Cletos 16 were good, i think 14 would be good too Thanks in advance
They dont "look" as durable, but the longevity is to be seen, still have a lot of mileage left on these gloves to give a better answer to that. I would get these over Winnings because they are more comfortable and use the same "leather" (IMO) as Winnings. Internal size theyre a little more snug that Sabas gloves, just by a hair.
Hey Carlo, can you recommend a sparring glove that lets you open and close your hand the best? From watching your videos, it looks like possibly top boxer’s old school gloves, infinitudes, or fly. Maybe the the Rival Guerrero sparring gloves? Thanks for your help!
Im going to be honest with everyone here and just cut it short. I bought the fly x to try them out and they are overrated and over priced!! They are made in China and feel cheap, the feel of it is just “ok” I have other synthetic leather gloves that don’t feel this cheap at half the price, now as for the padding? surprise!! It’s not as soft as people say it is, the padding is quite thin for a 16oz glove actually, and honestly? save your money and time and if you want a good sparring glove just go for the hit n move all day pro balance glove, the rival rfx Guerrero p4p, the adidas tilt 350 or the winning ms600, I have had all of them except for the winning glove, and I can tell you personally and factually that all those gloves are better sparring gloves in terms of comfort and quality and performance as a “sparring glove” and just the feel of the padding of these gloves is better/ softer for sparring then the fly x and I’m not saying this channel is a payed review but YES a lot of these channels (again not saying this one is) that do reviews are payed reviews or advertisement in favor for certain brands.
No I agree and you’re right they are currently overrated and overpriced. At the time of this review compared to what else was available I’d say they were par for the course. Still not a fan of the short thumb as well. As far as being paid goes, lmao I wish fly paid me for this 😂 but I do get free gear from some companies that want reviews. Just keeping it 💯 can’t speak for others in terms of 💰
If these are more comfortable gloves then winning (better) doesn’t that mean that these would be your number 2 spot for favorite gloves? And you said you like Russian boxer more somewhere in the comments more than these, so wouldn’t they also rate higher than winning?
I'm going to buy new gloves and my choice will be between these gloves and Cleto Reyes. if Cleto which one? do you prefer fly super lace x or Cleto Reyes ? I have some problem with my wrist, thanks!! support from Italy!!
I'd go with the Fly, especially if you have an issue with your wrist, the wrist support is nicer, the hand compartment is more form fitting so you can punch with more confidence than you would with Reyes.
Boxing isn’t always about going hard. The power will always be there. Some of the best boxers in the world understand that you can still be effective at any speed, you just have to know how to manipulate your opponent.
Is the 12oz padded enough for heavy bag work? I punch hard, broke my hand twice. Looking for something akin to Winning but I'm vegan so not buying leather. And I've got 16oz gloves which are fine for bag work, struggling to find a decent 12oz with good enough protection.
@csquaredboxing The gloves look like leather to me. TBH, this material looks better than their " real leather " gloves as those are a kind of matte finish and these look to be more glossy. I've always wondered why my Winning gloves didn't smell like leather. They have more of chemical type smell. I thought this might be due to the way the leather was dyed because winning gloves always had a nice bright " pop " to their colors. Wish Fly would have made these gloves with white trim/binding leather as I think that makes the main glove color pop even more. Winning used to do that but has stopped making them that way as well unless you custom order them that way.
So having both the genuine leather and synthetic leather model of the Fly, the genuine definitely has a nicer feel and quality to it over the synthetic. TBH I think these synthetic models use the same material that Winning uses because the texture, feel, and even smell is pretty much identical to Winning gloves. I've always wondered/ questioned if Winnings were genuine leather, so now my doubts are even more with these new Fly X models.
@@csquaredboxing Well the Winning pro model gloves are advertised as leather and the standard head guards are advertised as synthetic. I have a standard head guard in red and a custom leather one in green. The standard has a matte finish and a different feel than the advertised " leather " stuff. Both are very durrable. Those synthetic Flys are the best looking synthetic material I've ever seen. I agree that ** IT LOOKS ** like the real leather material Winning uses. BTW, speculation about the actual material of pro Winning gloves has been talked about for a while. I've seen deteriorated Winning gloves and they seemed to wear like real leather would. 🤷♀️ humm...
@@customerservice9602 Hii may i know if the headgear feel different between the synthetic and the real leather? Beause i only have standart and curious about the different between them. Thank you.
@@endy7933 Some headgear have a cloth liner on the inside and some have leather/synthetic leather liner. Real leather typically feels smooth and synthetic leather feels more tacky to the touch. But there are different qualities of synthetic leather and some seem more like plastic and some are pretty close to the quality of leather. Winning from Japan is widely considered to make the best headgear and it comes in synthetic leather standard. But you can order the headgear in leather as a custom option but it will cost more. Both perform well. And perhaps the synthetic is better because if you do a lot of sparring they are easy to clean the blood, sweat and vaseline off.
@@customerservice9602 Thanx for the detail information. I also have winning and i also hear we can ask leather for custom. Just curious the feeling will be better or same. But glad you said synthetic better, so i can try other gear lol.
Im from Rockford IL iv been boxing since i was 5 and up until today when i was sparring a professional from Canada i noticed that the gloves he had on where 14 oz and in the mid west and Mexico (Chihuahua) where i boxed 16 oz was the standard for sparring but i also noticed on all your reviews you get 14s for the most part whats your say on the matter ?
Hi mate would recommend getting these and a separate pair of bag gloves or just getting the fly super loop leather gloves and use them for both sparring and on the bag. I’m on a budget of £400
@@csquaredboxing Thank you! Also, I don't think I've seen this asked of you much, could've definitely missed it. But what do you personally value most in a glove, is it the protection, feedback, comfort, design, or what? Ideally it'd be a good mix of all these factors, but which one would you prioritize with sacrifices to the others? I personally am probably leaning towards comfort and protection because I have relatively small and slender hands and would prefer not to break them haha.
For me personally comfort is number 1, I’ve tried so many gloves over the years and if the glove is uncomfortable, I don’t care how great people say it is or how nice it looks, I won’t want to wear it. Second would be feedback, meaning how does it feel when I land my punches on any target whether it be a bag, sparring, mitts, etc. I like a glove with good pop that I can feel my knuckles make contact but offers solid shock absorption. I think the hammers do that very well which is why I recommended them. Quality of course is important as well, but comfort and feel is priority for me.
Shit, it really does look like Winning leather and it's just synthetic. These gloves are wonderfully made. I can't wait to get a pair. Edit: getting the one with genuine leather btw
Would you say the knuckle padding on the premium fly is just as soft as winning or a bit harder? Which is the better sparring glove, adidas tilt 350 vs flyx? Winning ms16 vs premium fly for sparring?
I talked to the box up nation guy about that winning glove thing. I told you about how I got a pair that was all leather this month and a pair last month that had the synthetic punch surface. I spoke with the Box Up Nation guy on the phone today and told him about how they were different. He said winning confirms it but they make custom gloves that are 100 percent leather at higher price. I must have lucked out by getting a stock pair that were 100 percent leather.
So are the superlace x synthetic leather?! Looking at ordering these, the site im looking at states they are premium leather not synthetic. Dont think you could get away with charging around £200 gbp for a pair of synthetic gloves... Edit: just gone to the website and they are indeed 'engineered artificial leather'. No thanks then, they will be garbage after a month.
Hii do you feel different with the genuine leather one? like have good feeling when you use to punch it or same? i have the x line and curious to buy the real leather one or try for other brand. thank you.
Haha me too! Yeah any glove $200 and up is a big pill to swallow, however I can say these are the best synthetic gloves I’ve used and maybe some of the best gloves in general.
Thanks for the review. Nice to see some brands thinking out of the box and use other high-end material instead of leather. The processing of synthetic leather has come a long way. However, I'm a little confused with this review. Are you implying that Winning is using synthetic leather on their gloves instead of real leather? If so, then you're also implying that Winning is using shady and illegal business practices. You can't advertise your products as being real leather when they're not. That's illegal. And Winning are also stating that their gloves are made out of real leather. Synthetic leather has come a long way in terms of durability, feel and overall quality. High-end fashion brands like Stella McCartney uses synthetic leathers (for ethical and environmental reasons) on all their "leather products" and the feel and quality is almost impossible to distinguish from real leather. But that's one thing. If the budget Fly gloves look, smell and feel the same as Winning gloves it doesn't mean that Winning is disloyal to their customers. Winning gloves are made out of real leather. That's what their are advertised as.
I’m simply stating that the synthetic leather on these Fly X gloves looks, feels, and even smells identical to Winning gloves, which claim to be genuine leather. Am I a leather expert? No. But I can put the 2 gloves side by side and material wise they look the same. Unless I cut both gloves open and bring them to a leather tanner, then I can’t be 100% sure. I’m simply stating what I see between the 2 gloves I own. Others can form their own opinion as well.
And yes, synthetic leather has come a LONG way, so maybe it’s just that the Fly X gloves use such a high quality, it’s hard to distinguish them from winning leather? With that being said, this is the first pair of synthetic boxing gloves with this quality of material I’ve ever used, and I’ve tried several synthetic material gloves. Just food for thought 🤔
I own both gloves and Carlo is right. The “leather” on both are damn near identical. Winning could very well use real leather. If that’s the case, great. It just means Fly has discovered a way to replicate it and sell it at a lower price.
Another great review. Thank you Carlo. I’ll never buy a new pair of gloves without first checking your channel out for an informative review. Have a good weekend my brother. Keep up the great work!
Thanks man i try my best! Have a good weekend as well, be safe bro!
For 220 American and they’re as good as Winning for half the price, will definitely buy a pair eventually.

No thanks then, they will be garbage after a month.
Yea the x series is synthetic
They aren't garbage after a month lol
How long would a pair of gloves like these last compare to winning
Assuming they’re used the same amount, maybe a bit longer because the padding takes longer to break down
Carlo, hope all is well. These or the Phenom Elite SG-200? Thanks!
Same to you, the phenoms
fly s are copy of winnings
Great review ! What oz do u think I should get for medium sized hands?
16 ounce as they’re quite snug
What's the best glove for under $200, sparring or bag? Thanks.
Laser Sharp for sparring, these. For bag work I like Title or Reyes.
thanks too this video I copped my superlace today on black fly day thanks bro !
Nice catch!
love the video
Thanks man! 🙏🏼
Would you recommend the super loop or lace
Lace
How did the gloves hold up looking for a pair of gloves to last be ages
Padding breaking down but overall good
@@csquaredboxing would you compare the durability to cleto reyes
Another excellent review my dude, I appreciate your work.
Thanks man appreciate it!
Hii do you feel different with the genuine leather one? like have good feeling when you use to punch it or same? i have the x line and curious to buy the real leather one or try for other brand. thank you.
I live vicariously through this channel :D I like the simple looks of these gloves but at $200+ USD for synthetic not sure I would buy them.
Haha me too! Yeah any glove $200 and up is a big pill to swallow, however I can say these are the best synthetic gloves I’ve used and maybe some of the best gloves in general.
Good to hear. Thanks for the videos man appreciate the work.
No prob, thanks man!
@@csquaredboxing Best synthetic? Even better then the Onx series?
Thanks for the review. Nice to see some brands thinking out of the box and use other high-end material instead of leather. The processing of synthetic leather has come a long way.
However, I'm a little confused with this review. Are you implying that Winning is using synthetic leather on their gloves instead of real leather? If so, then you're also implying that Winning is using shady and illegal business practices. You can't advertise your products as being real leather when they're not. That's illegal. And Winning are also stating that their gloves are made out of real leather.
Synthetic leather has come a long way in terms of durability, feel and overall quality. High-end fashion brands like Stella McCartney uses synthetic leathers (for ethical and environmental reasons) on all their "leather products" and the feel and quality is almost impossible to distinguish from real leather.
But that's one thing. If the budget Fly gloves look, smell and feel the same as Winning gloves it doesn't mean that Winning is disloyal to their customers. Winning gloves are made out of real leather. That's what their are advertised as.
I’m simply stating that the synthetic leather on these Fly X gloves looks, feels, and even smells identical to Winning gloves, which claim to be genuine leather. Am I a leather expert? No. But I can put the 2 gloves side by side and material wise they look the same. Unless I cut both gloves open and bring them to a leather tanner, then I can’t be 100% sure. I’m simply stating what I see between the 2 gloves I own. Others can form their own opinion as well.
And yes, synthetic leather has come a LONG way, so maybe it’s just that the Fly X gloves use such a high quality, it’s hard to distinguish them from winning leather? With that being said, this is the first pair of synthetic boxing gloves with this quality of material I’ve ever used, and I’ve tried several synthetic material gloves. Just food for thought 🤔
I own both gloves and Carlo is right. The “leather” on both are damn near identical. Winning could very well use real leather. If that’s the case, great. It just means Fly has discovered a way to replicate it and sell it at a lower price.
Thanks brotha for the feedback!
@@BrianWoz if actually did own a pair of Winning, you would know that they are made out of real leather.
