I've never had a good impression of Everlast gloves. Is the Protex really that good?
No problem. Will drop by to Zhang Zhiyi too

I just ordered these Gloves:
TITLE - GEL bag gloves (20oz)

The reviewer said they 20 oz but small like 12oz gloves.
I tend to like "Gel" padding too so thought they would be nice to have.

He mentions that the wrist support isn't good but you should use Wraps for Heavy Bag training anyway.

Jmp
I've heard good things about the Title Gels too. But do they hold up well over time? I'm hoping for a pair that will last me years.

These look good. How is the wrist support? I can't seem to find much reviews on this. Mostly found on the IMF Tech which are out of my budget.



What about glove sizes? I intend to use wraps everytime.
Seeing that I can't put on a L-sized Twins bag gloves with wraps on (feels a tad small even without wraps), if I were to buy a BOON or the Title Gel or the Ringside Gel gloves, which size should I be getting?

The Boon's are real tight and compact. I got Large and don't really have big hands, and they just fit with wraps. Not a whole lot of wrist support with them, but they fit so fucking nice and have great padding on them. The construction is unmatched. I expect to have these for YEARS.

I'm looking at the Top King boxing gloves (not the bag gloves) and they look good. They also look like they have more wrist support than the bag gloves. I intend for the gloves to be used only on heavy bags there's no gym anywhere near for me to join.

I understand these boxing gloves wear out much faster than bag gloves if constantly used on the heavy bags. Just curious how do they wear out? Does the leather tear or does the padding just get compacted? Since I don't intend to use the gloves for sparring, would this pose as a problem for continued bag work?
