Boon Muay Thai Pads Small Size Review

I picked up these pads when I was in Thailand last summer. They were 1900 baht at the Boon Sport shop in Bangkok.

I have used these for about 50 rounds so far and I love them. I really like the single strap design. They let me spin them around to the back of my arm so I can clinch with my fighters when I'm holding. They are light, so I can move them around fast for punch combos, but still heavy enough to catch hard kicks and knees.

The leather is very nice. It has a nice smooth polished finish and feels very thick. I decided not to get the velcro because it always wears out before the pads. This happens to every brand of pads, so I bought the buckle version. The handle is firm and has a nice arch to it. The stitching on the pads is very thick and durable. I really can't find any flaws in this pad.
