First off I want to thank the stores I have bought stuff from. MMAWarehouse.com, JiuJitsuProGear.com, Fairtexgear.com, Budovideos.com, Ringside.com. They have all provided exceptional service and great pricing. Well here goes my long ol' review....


Fairtex Ultimate Combat Gloves



I absolutely love these gloves. I have small hands but I ended up going with a size L because of hand wraps. It was a good choice. They fit perfect with my wraps on. They are very well made and have held up very well so far. Very well padded and easy on the hands when making contact. They do not hinder grappling at all during the times I have used them. They are nice and light and breath very well. I give these a 9/10. The only thing I do not like is they are a little tight in the finger area and can cause your fingers to pinch.



Fairtex 16oz. Pro Sparring Gloves



These are typical Fairtex quality. Built like a tank and look great. I use these for bag work and soon with focus mitts. They are very well padded and fit great. My hands never hurt after a good bad session. So far they have held up very well and have not shown the slightest bit of wear. Nice and light and are ok as far as breathing goes. 9/10



Fairtex Muay Thai Ankle Supports



Light weight, comfy and feel great while wearing. Feels good to kick the bag with these on. No hinderence but provide good protection. Made very well and breath great. 10/10



Fairtex Muay Thai Elbow Pads



Not a lot I can say about these. Very well made, light, breath easy and offer great protection. 9/10


More to come soon.......

Koral Kimono /Gi - MKM Black & White



These gi rocks. Nice and light and very easy to move around in. This is my first gi so I cannot really compare it to others but so far I love this thing. Has a nice lapel on it and is not too stiff but just about right. I got a Koral white belt with this and I have been more than happey with it. 9/10


Century BOB XL Sparring Bag



I really wish I would have gotten a heavy bag instead. This is a very well made product and is easy on the hands but it just moves around way too easy when punching it. I have it completely filled with water and it still slides around a lot. 7/10


Fairtex Sparring Head Guard



I won't go on and on about the Fairtex quality but you know how they are. This is a really comfortable head guard and is very adjustable with the laces and velcro enclosures. Doesn't feel to bad at all sparring with this. Very light and well padded. I highly recommend this one. 10/10

Good review's....Those fairtex sparring gloves and headguards look great.
Whats the padding like on the gloves?...soft or pretty firm?

[bmizar]

I also just got the 16oz training gloves and they are great too. The sparring gloves are pretty soft so sparring feels good with them. The training gloves are a lot stiffer for bag work. I just love Fairtex stuff.

Thanks a lot for the reviews!

How is the padding on the MMA gloves?

[bmizar]

Nice and firm! The top of the gloves are a lot softer then the knuckles. The finger area is very dense.

Fairtex gloves have the worst Velcro. I don't know how many times during sparring did my partner and I had to readjust. Their padding is adequate though. Their regular shin pads cut my big toe the first couple of times I used them until they were broken in. The standard Fairtex thai pads are good until your partner weighs more than 190lbs. Then you'll start feeling the kicks thru the pads.
