Any suggestions for synthetic leather bag gloves!! I've heard mixed reviews about the Hayabusa T3, but that some of the Rival bag gloves are pretty good.

Also, I'm about 145-150, can I use 16oz gloves? I'm currently using 14oz gloves

What do you think about Sweet Science gloves, anybody use this gear ?

Hi guys I just have a few questions...

I live in an apartment and I just bought a punching bag. My plan was to get a wall mount and place it in my balcony wall that separates my balcony and my neighbours. Problem is... the wall is concrete and I'm not sure if its even a safe idea to place it in the balcony. I have nowhere else to put it.

What can I do? Is this even a good idea?

Not a good idea assuming its a heavy bag. Im a contractor and can tell you that unless you get access to your neighbours balcony and put nuts and bolts right through the wall, it'll wiggle loose quickly. The best options i see are: 1: get a stand unit (not sure what they're called but they have a frame and self support the bag) or 2: consider just getting a double end bag for when you want to work out at home.

Gloves

I feel like RDX offers a happy medium for price to performance

Everlas have cheap handwraps at most sports stores. Reebok is okay, just be sure they are fit for what you're using them for
Heavy bag work requires reinforced gloves to not ruin your hands
