    Winning gloves

    Sup guys I have a few questions about winning gloves.. Do they last a long time? I want to use them for the bag and sparring and mitts. I hear they are good gloves but will they last a long time ? Also are they worth the money? Any insight would be appreciated. Their USA shop isike 45 min away from m house so if I hear good things I think I will just drive there and pick them up. Thanks guys

    I train about 4 times a week with the 10oz velcro on pads and bags.

    I've had them for a year and they still feel like new.

    The glove is of excellent quality and I can't really say a bad thing about them.

    Whether they are worth the money, it depends on your situation.

    I don't buy gloves that often so it was well worth it for me.

    Hope that helps.

      Good point thanks! How do you print your gloves from smelling after use?

        they are worth it if you can afford them. if not youll be disappointed because for that money you are expecting a god like glove. if you cant afford them go with ringside imf tech (100$) or triumph united 2.0 (60$).

        also make sure after youre done working out you open your gloves up and put them somewhere where they can dry (window etc). they need plenty of air for about a night. then put some cedar chips (in a sock or something) in them til your next workout.

        ive done that with mine and after about a year or usage they still smell fresh, even better than when i bought them

          Instead of leaving them in my gym bag after training I keep them out in the open to air out.

          They don't smell too bad, but it's expected they get a bit musty.

            Good idea about the cedar chips. Right now I'm using baking soda in a sock. It pretty much made the smell disssaper. I think it might be a problem after time though with the baking soda gettin inside the glove. Ima get some cedar chips thanks! And as far as price , yeah it's really high but if these gloves last i think it would be worth it for sure. I'm going to get the headgear. Then if I'm fully convinced on the gloves I'm goin to get those too. Youu guys love your pair?

              Or if your really cheap just go to ringside and type imf. They have a cheaper model that has a little pink on the logo and is made with "Perma-Leather". I've heard nothing but good things about this glove and I'll be purchasing one myself because at 30$ thats a steal.

                dang that is a good deal. i just am really set on winning gloves. like i want them the my only hold back is the price. thats a lot for gloves. but like i said if they last a long time i think its worth it.

                  Go to the dealer and try them on. Kazumichi is a very nice guy and will help you out. You are lucky that you live so close, I would love to go there.

                    kazumichi san is the man.

                    Winning gloves are pricey but excellent. I highly recommend them. To keep them from stinking, always wipe the insides down with a paper towel or your towel after you use them.

                    I've had mine for 2 years and they still smell pretty much new.
