Seriosuly get the Combat Sports MMA training gloves, cheaper and just as good if not better: http://www.combatsports.com/detail_tuf2.aspx?ID=22292. I think Joe said they would ship anywhere.

I dunno Adino, we spar with both the CSI gloves and the fairtex gloves at my gym, and I can tell you, I would much rather get hit with fairtex gloves. Those CSI's are seriously hard. If you are using them for light GnP practice they're good, beacuse they are lower profile and a little easier to grapple in, but if you're trying to mix in standup, those CSI gloves will hurt you.

Yea I mostly use the CSI's for more ground work than stand up and when I mix I don't throw really hard. I'm a much better grappler than striker at the moment so I thought the fairtex was too big to effectivly grapple and strike at the same time. Thanks for the break down though it's good to hear from someone who has experience with both.

These will be out soon. Being tested by a few people from different forums.

The Fairtex gloves are awesome but hard to get a hold of.

I emailed fairtex a while back on when they were getting their next shipment because everything I wanted was out of stock, they told me around mid February.
