i am 18 years old and have never boxed even for fun. my college has a boxing program where i guess they just have all the facilities and you can go there and practice. they have a trainer guy to help you out too there. i am very interested in getting into it just for fun.
i dont wanna show up and look completely stupid though, they said i need to bring my own gloves and wraps, what should i buy? any other help would be greatly appreciated
well i dont have insane money you know, but i dont wanna buy something then in a week have to get somethin gbetter
so what all should i buy? i mean i dont know all the terminology, so handwraps, then those gloves pictured above looked different then what i am used to, are they like "bag" gloves or what? all the help is greatly appreciated, thanks!!
yeah they are bag gloves. They got more conventional looking bag gloves (laces) but they are considerably more expensive.

I also have Reyes hand wraps they are pretty cool they are like twice the length of some everlast ones i had.
check out ringside.com and titleboxing.com. i have title mexican handwrps and im satisfied with them.
titlecoxing.com is a good site, i have the mexican handwraps the brand is title boxing there garbage, the everlast ones are better
They dont sell handwraps there?
Also bag gloves, i bought some cheap everlast gloves and they sucked a lot, so then i bought Some Reye's laceless bag gloves and those are awesome the craftsmanship is above and beyond.
I recently saw some pro's using them which made me feel even better haha.
