New review... More shit.

I've recently bought some shizat.
Windys Training Gloves
Adidas Tactik Gloves
Ouano Shooto Gloves
Twins Shorts
TeamStandAlone shirts
===================--------------------------------------=====================
Windy Training Gloves(16oz): I got these off CSI for 29.99. When thinking of Windy, I think of a top notch company. I received the gloves, tried them on, etc. First off, I wear an XL in MMA gloves and while this did not come with sizes, I felt it fit more for a person with a bigger fist. Looks whise, it looked good. All blue with the yellow windy symbol look very good. I got 16's, so they are big, but for "training" gloves and 16oz gloves they werent that much bigger from my 14oz BAG gloves. I used them on a vinyl heavy bag and they got torn up. I know they arent made for the heavy bag, but cmon, it was one session. I'll use them primarily for SPARRING only. Synthetic leather blows i guess. 7/10

Adidas Tactik Gloves: I bought the 10oz bag gloves they had before they were discontinued and absolutely LOVED the elastic cuff and foam padding so I bought there 14oz Tactic training gloves. Initially I thought sparring but after some phone calls and research they aren't made for sparring. Which wasn't a problem with me... They are officially my bag/mitt glove and I absolutely love them. Elastic cuff, sufficienct padding, and their state-of-the-art foam padding I love. Not to mention they look sexy as hell with the black and orange/red. 9.5/10

Ouano Shooto Gloves: These gloves, I was also impressed with. I dont train much in MMA but I used these for double end bag and mitt work. SUFFICIENT ass padding. I can't believe they fight PRO with these things? They're like 4oz sparring gloves. Easy to break in compared to my truth's. 8/10

Twins Thai Shorts: Kinda like my Shooto gloves, I dont train much in Thai and MMA so these were kinda irrelevant. I got some cheesy ass design but what can I say for 3.95(right?)? Compared to my Fairtex's... These shorts were kinda shitty. If I dont wear underwear under them, you can see my junk which I found weird. They're very, for lack of better words, less-fabricy(fabricky?). Not to mention weak ass design. 5/10 compared to my fairtex's.
(can't find the URL for them)
TeamStandAlone T-Shirts: I got the cursive one and the one with the cool design on the ass. First off, they're excellent quality. Shirts feel perfect. I got a large in both, I walk around 170, and they fit fine. The grey fit a little bigger than the black but who the hell cares. I was very impressed with the quality and loved the design of the black one. Not to mention the customer service was nuts where I talked to him maybe 2-3-4 times a day through PM and he responded right away. He has a couple other shirts I plan on ordering when I collect a little more money and probably will get his shorts to go along. Order his shit, his designs are the shit...
