FAIRTEX Gloves - Review.

Pro Training Gloves, Mexican-Style 14 oz

Holy Shit! These gloves are far better then i thought, The gloves whent over all my expectations. As soon is i try`d these gloves out, i was sold.

The fit is just perfect, the shape is just perfect. Heck, even the smell is perfect.

If you are goin to work the Heavy bag and thai mitts. Then the Fairtex Heavy Hitter´s Gloves should be your first choice. Awsome!

price worthy if you ask me! They have double stiches like and any Reyes glove for that matter to!

Yellow Boxing Glove with Flames 18Oz

These gloves are pimp. I peronally prefer gloves with laces. So they arent even in the same league. But these gloves are pretty cool and not so bad either.

They are imo pretty small for a pair of 18Oz. But heck, i recommend these to. Since its price worthy. Who can resist some flames in your hands?

Problem with Fairtex is they never seem to have any of their stock in. I ordered some shorts and shin guards from there online site only to find out a week later they never had it in stock. So I have since been interested in 4 other things from their online site and always call them to check if they have it and they never do. The same guy always gives me the same excuse, oh we are getting in a shipment in 2 weeks or so. It was real sad when I called a week ago about new gloves and the guy said We don't have ANY gloves in at all. I was like you have got to be kidding me, your site shows like 20 different styles and he says they havent had them for months. It is pretty bad they never have stock and on top of that they don't make mention of it being sold out on their website.
