Ringside Apex Bag Gloves, IMF-Tech Boxing Gloves with Secure Wrist Support, Synthetic Boxing Gloves for Men and Women

Wow these gloves are something else. I have two other pairs of gloves made by everlast and this glove is by far much better. At first I was a little disappointed with these because i had ordered the L/XL gloves which seemed really tight when I tried them on (with hand wraps) but after I went to go train my perspective on these gloves completely changed. Compared to my other gloves you can really tell the difference with their IMF (injected molded foam) and the tight grip of the gloves made for really solid striking. Unlike my other gloves which, use sort of an elastic to secure the glove, the "hook and loop" on these provide a firm wrap around the wrists/forearms and it's awesome. The leather (or whatever you would call it) is firms and slick and the quality is top. Esthetically you can see that these gloves look sleek and they look even better in person. One thing i did forget to mention, that i first noticed, is that there is a lot of thumb support and protection. I thought these gloves were going to be a lot heavier (looking at the pictures) but I really like the weight of the 12oz gloves! Although they aren't 16oz, its still adds that extra pressure of keeping your hands up after many rounds and lots of fatigue. Personally I am just getting into boxing and I have been using these gloves for a little over a week and I think they are fantastic. I definitely would recommend them to anyone! Ohhhh one more thing! The shipping was ridiculously fast! I ordered these in the standard (free) shipping (and I don't have prime anymore) but they arrived at my door within two days!

Several months ago I decided to try something new to get myself into shape during this pandemic so I decided to take up boxing. I'm a bigger fella (6' - 225lbs) and I can hit the heavy bag with a decent amount of force so it didn't take long for my knuckles to start to feel it. Granted, I'm new to boxing so I'm sure some of that is due to poor technique but nevertheless my knuckles seemed as though they'd be in a forever bruised state if I kept at it. Needless to say I was in the market for a pair of gloves that better protected my knuckles from impact. After trying these on and using them I can tell you these do just that! With my knuckles still being a bit sore from my previous workout, I used these and didn't feel a thing! They do run a bit small. Like I said, I'm about 6' - 225lbs and as far as gloves go I'm usually a tweener of L & XL. I got the L/XL glove size and with no wraps on they fit just about perfect however with my wraps on I have to pull a bit to get them on which I'm hoping might get easier with some use and wearing in. Overall, great quality glove for the price and offers great protection especially for beginners.

Great bag gloves for the price. Takes a bit to break these in but they offer just the right amount of protection to be able to go pretty hard on a heavy bag while being light enough to work on speed. These aren't a typical bag gloves where you are able to feel each strike. The padding is closer to a 12oz training glove which is nice when you want to be able to throw harder punches.

I bought theee gloves because I wanted to pay a little more for a pair of boxing gloves that would last me a long time (I box 6 days a week) and protect my wrists. These are obviously not the best gloves out there but for the price I’m really happy with them. They’re really sturdy and good quality and I like the wrist support they provide. However, these gloves take about a month to break in because they are so sturdy and I broke some skin breaking them in that first week. I’ve had them for several months now and they fit perfectly now. Also be aware that these gloves run VERY SMALL. I’m 5’1, 110lbs and a female and had to go with the large/XL gloves. I bought the small medium ones first and had to return them because I couldn’t fit into them with my hand wraps.

I’ve been boxing for over a decade and have owned gloves from Cleto Reyes, Winning, Rival, Everlast, and many others. I bought these as an affordable replacement for my Rival gloves, and at first, I honestly hated them. The break-in period was rough — I even had some skin irritation on my pinky for a few days. But once they broke in, these gloves completely transformed. They became extremely comfortable, cushiony, and provide great feedback for technique work. I’d recommend them more for intermediate to advanced boxers rather than beginners. After the adjustment period, these are easily some of the best gloves I’ve used, especially for the price.

I initially ordered a small size, returned it, and then ordered a large. After trying other brands, I ended up getting the small size again. So, I feel obliged to write a review for this brand. These gloves are well-made and sturdy. If you like a snug fit and have small hands, the small size will work well. The large size is not only bigger but also longer—the wrist section extended past my wrist. I am 5'3" and weigh 113 lbs. I got them in black and silver at a reasonable price. I’m so happy with my purchase!

Fits a bit tight and can’t use hand wraps comfortably. My hand size is large. I got the 14 oz ones. Even without wraps it has very good wrist and overall hand support. The design isn’t leather or fake leather but it uses it really cool looking almost carbon fiber looking material. The injected molded foam is much more consistent than cheaper gloves. It is a pillow type glove and you don’t get the satisfying crack when hitting the bag. But with that comes a very high level of protection. If you have joint or wrist pain I think these gloves are for you. They do a better job at absorbing impact than most other gloves I have. And for the money I think it’s a good deal.

I was disappointed with this glove the inside came apart way too quickly. Started to leak crumbs of the interior with every punch. Also stitching was coming apart. For ringside brand this pair was a disappointment.

Good fit and feel. Welter weight so not super heavy hitter. Have held up so far no damage

Llevo un mes y medio usándolos, y son una shuuuuuuuladisima beso de chef mua!!! Sin embargo, las cosas buenas tienen un posible contra, según lo que estés buscando o a lo que estés acostumbrado. Para empezar, hay que distinguir que Ringside tiene 2 de estos modelos, y este review es para los de uso para costal: FTG2: Son los que se usan para sparring, en la pag oficial los encuentras como Ringside Apex Flash sparring gloves. Estos si tienen medidas por onzas (más de esto al final donde hablo del peso). FTG1: SON LOS DE ESTE REVIEW, que son para costal, en la página su nombre completo es Ringside Apex Bag Gloves. Sus tallas son chica, mediana y grande, no se miden por onzas (más al final) En las fotos puedes ver el guante lado a lado con unos guantes Everlast y con unos guantes chinos. A pesar de que se ven mas pequeños y angostos, estos guantes ringside, son SUMAMENTE SUPERIORES en cuanto a protección. - DENSIDAD PRO: Excelente protección. Su acolchado es muy denso, por lo que son una chulada de usar para entrenar con costal, que es para lo que los uso, protege muy bien la mano de los golpes por lo que puedes soltar toda tu furia. Si ya tienes buena técnica y fuerza si puedes llegar a sentir el contacto con los nudillos, pero... hay un tema con el uso de vendas que tocaré en la parte del ajuste. CONTRA: Cuidado con la técnica Si apenas estás comenzando, debido a la gran protección que brindan, no vas a enterarte para nada con que nudillos estás pegando, de manera que hay que tener cuidado con trabajar la técnica sin guante para no crear malos hábitos. - AJUSTE Estos guantes son SUMAMENTE ajustados, en especial cuando están nuevos, esto puede gustarte o no, y puede ser un problema si tienes una mano grande. Yo tengo mano grande pero alargada y hay que hacer un poco de fuerza para que entre el guante, pero sientes mucho soporte. El problema es si usas venda. PRO: Debido a la densidad, puedes usar este guante sin vendas y no te vas a lastimar la mano. CONTRA: Si tienes mucha fuerza, y una mano grande, es posible que se vuelvan incómodos, porque a duras penas va a entrar la mano. En las fotos puedes ver que yo uso unos guantes internos de gel, de la misma marca, y cuando los guantes estaban nuevecitos era difícil poder ponérselos. Después de un mes de uso y además de meterles tela para que fueran aflojando, ya no es tán complicado pero siguen siendo unos guantes ajustados. A mi me gusta usar los guantes internos de gel, para poder pegarle con todo al costal pero además porque no me gusta que la mano me sude tanto, y estos guantes ayudan con no dejar tanto sudor por dentro. En las fotos puedes ver el grosor de estos guantes internos y considerar como quedará el ajuste si usas vendas. Al final me he acostumbrado al ajuste, y después de 1 mes ya no es tan complicado ponérselos pero en definitiva son guantes que están diseñados para... pues... literal quedarte como guante. De nuevo, puede que te guste o puede que no. Si no te molesta usar los guantes sin vendas o guantes internos, no tendrás problema, ya que son sumamente cómodos, la protección es excelente y el ajuste te da muchísimo soporte. - PESO Estos guantes son muy ligeros, y no vienen como medidas de 16oz, 8oz, etc. Esto parece que es una cuestión de la marca, ya que estos guantes que son para uso de costal, solo vienen en medidas chica, mediana y grande. Esto es porque la medida de los pesos, en guantes de entrenamiento para costal, ya no es algo que se use siempre debido a los nuevos tipos de materiales, hace muchos años, un guante de 16 onzas significaba que tenía mucho material y muchas veces lo recomendaban por ejemplo para costales porque sabías que ibas a tener mas acolchado. Actualmente esto ya no es necesariamente cierto, como el material que encuentras en estos guantes, son ligeros pero el acolchado es sumamente eficiente, yo no creo que sean de 16oz o al menos no se sienten como unos de 16 oz. Es por esto que estos guantes que son para costal, tienen un acolchado mas rígido que los que son de sparring, sin embargo pesan menos que unos de 16oz.

Happy with this product
