Twins Specials are pretty big. I like mine a lot though. What are you using them for? Bag & pads or sparring?
Here are some comparison pics for you.
KOfightGear on the left, Hayabusa middle, and Twins on the right. Keep in mind these are all 16oz gloves.

Its half way to my elbow. With that being said, I LOVE my Twins gloves, I've also worn Hayabusu and I wasn't a fan(compared to my twins.) Also favor my Twins over fairtex.

someone beat me to it...cool..
I love my twins gloves, worth the 2 weeks i waited for them to get here from Thailand...
Coming from the combat sports safetech gloves, the twins feel like pillows on my hands,,,way softer and have a "broken in" feel to them right out of the box...
Ive also owned a pair of windy 16's and the twins are by far my favorite...I got the black and gold with the dragon on them....very happy with them

I got a pair of white 16's. Theyre not big compared to all my other 16's but they are hella soft, too soft actually. I jammed my thumb a few times sparring. Also, mine dont have griphoses. Does anyone else not have griphoses? I got mine from muaythaistuff.
