Combat Sports Max Strike MMA Training Gloves

Review based on an XL as well as a L for this glove. AESTHETICS - Both gloves are beautifully constructed, no loose stitches or scuffs/marks. It's not full leather because it looks like the black segmented part of the back of the glove is made out of synthetic leather. The leather on the padding and on the finger loops feel nice and soft. I feel that they will be durable but it's only been a week so bare with me on that. Also the color scheme and layout are gorgeous. Nothing looks tacky or poorly printed designed. An absolute pleasure to flash around at the gym. Drawing the "ooo's" and "awe's" of the gym mates especially feel nice haha. FIT - The XL's fit my hand comfortably mind you my hands aren't huge. I got the XL because I wanted to wear handwraps with them. The only ones I can wear with them though are probably 120's... comfortably anyways. The L's felt a little too tight around the fingers. They weren't uncomfortable but I did notice the tightness. Dimensions of my hands to help with sizing: -8.5" circumference around the knuckles [Palm up] -3.5" width of knuckles [Palm up] -3" circumference of index finger -3" & 2/8th's the length of the middle finger FUNCTIONALITY - Both do their job very well, which is safely simulate an MMA ruled match. The pre-curved foam make it relatively easy to strike and to clinch with but is a bit cumbersome while grappling especially when going for subs. But I've adapted it to my game and instead hug rather than grab the limb I'm attacking. Chokes and getting underhooks are a bit troublesome as well. I will admit though that the padding for the XL's compared to the L's is different(it could be that I got different batches). The XL's felt soft but firm at the same time, think Gel padding. While the L's were soft as well but more of a springy bouncier padding. Still would rather get hit by these than a TapOut glove lol. OVERALL: Would definitely buy these gloves in bulk if there's a good price for them. Very happy with my purchase :D PROS: -Does as described -soft but firm padding -as functional as it is aesthetically pleasing CONS: -Size chart needs to move down a peg[XL's should be L's, L's should be Reg, etc.] -Inconsistent padding [probably got 2 different batches. still love em though!]

at this price ($20-25) they are a steal. these gloves look like they're worth about 5 times what i paid for them. they look extremely high quality and you will for sure have people at the gym asking you what kind of gloves they are and where did you buy them. padding is thick, curved, and the wrist closure supports your wrist better than any similar glove i've used. warning though, they are sized small, so please go up a size if you want them to fit right. in everlast glove sizing i'm a S/M so i bought these in the regular size but they were too small for me. when my girlfriend saw them though she loved them, tried them on, and now they're hers. i ended up buying another pair in L size for me and they fit perfect. i don't MMA so i can't tell you how well these will work while grappling. i can tell you that you have enough freedom to grab wrists and ankles with these gloves on, as well as other activities like jumping rope. i mainly use these for training with thai pads with partners so i enjoy these types of gloves so i can put them on and off with ease. if you plan to heavy bag, these gloves will work fine for short spurts but if you plan on punching a bag for extended periods of time then a standard boxing glove/hand wrap combination would be a better choice mainly for the added support, protection, and comfort. with these gloves you have to clinch a fist to properly punch. the curved padding helps with this but you will be fatigued after a long periods. face it though, standard boxing gloves just aren't as cool as these. i'm so pleased with these gloves i'm thinking about buying the XL size and trying them out with hand wraps.

Work fine fit fine, the people who say they dont fit well probably dont use them alot as they were a bit odd going on at first and it was difficult to open my hands completley, thats probably just because its fresh, high quality leather. Been sparring with them for a few months now and they work perfectly, leather had loosened up and my hand rests the way it should as well as being able to open them completley. Only downside is the padding is very thick (I think more than CRNR gloves) so I cant finish with an ezikiel choke and it can also make rear nakeds, armtriangles, etc. more difficult compared to a UFC glove, but with a glove like this it should be expected and your partner will appreciate the extra padding.

Been using these gloves for a few months, and they are one of my absolute favorite pairs. I've been kick boxing and sparring for many years and these gloves are lighter on the hands but still give plenty of protection and padding. They're very durable and look great as well. Will definitely consider buying a second pair.

Literally the best mma gloves I have ever owned. The padding is phenomenal! I believe the padding is IMF technology (csi & ringside patented tech) So soft and pillowy your partner will think they got hit by a soft summer cloud. This will allow you to spar harder (still dont go muts though) without hurting your partner thus getting more out of your training session. The built in D ring on the wrist closure allows for excellent wrist support in fact I believe they have better wrist support than any other mma glove on the market (yes even better than the hayabusa tokushu series mma gloves) tje wrist support really comes in handy when striking. They feel durable and the leather is Deffinatley high quality it is soft and supple. The stitching and construction is consitant throughout the design of the glove and the open palm is very well designed to be comfortable and effective (you'ed be surprised how many manufacturers fail in designing this part of the glove well but csi did a good job). The only negative with this glove is that all that amazing padding can be to much when grappling as the bubble that protects your knuckles and hand can be to big and make difficult to escape your hand from certain places and holds, this is the sole reason i did not give them 5 stars. But great for working ground and pound. All in all these are great and would recommend to anyone. I hope you found this review helpful and informative. Good luck, train hard, have fun, and never give up. Oss!

I absolutely love the Combat MMA gloves! They deserve a solid 5-star rating. I've used them extensively for both bag work and sparring, and they've exceeded my expectations in every way. The fit on my hands is perfect, providing a snug and comfortable feel without any unnecessary bulk. The wrist support is excellent, giving me the confidence to strike with power while knowing my wrists are well-protected. These gloves have become an indispensable part of my training gear, and I wouldn't consider buying anything else. If you're serious about MMA or any combat sport, these gloves are a must-have. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Just finished using these for a Saturday open matt, and I gotta say these are pretty nice :). The sponging is great , I love how it covers my knocking knuckles too. They appear bulky in size but once they are on and your going they don't feel oversized or get stuck while rolling. The only thing I'd change is the wrist strap. It's a bit too short when closing . And if your gonna wrap up that might be a problem. Overall good buy !

3/18/23 Just used these for striking &’they’re great. The padding is bit stiff when new so getting hit in the head before breaking these in with a few hours of pad work is not recommended but they still feel great as long as you have some control & go light. They fit true to size (my palms around the knuckles are about 8.5” diameter & I got the Large). I was able to wrap my hands & still get them on. I had to use less wrap on the knuckles (2x around as opposed to 5/6x around) & more around the wrists (going slightly higher up the forearm) but it was no problem. I’m not much of a grappler but the other guys who are (we all got the same gloves) seemed to have no real problems/complaints when things went to the ground. I will update this after some time & the gloves break in.

Great fit. Delivery was quick & on time. Great product. Definitely recommend these gloves & this seller. I'm so happy with them I'm getting another pair.

I used this for Wing Chun training and sparring. Foam is a little stiff, needs a break in period. It's tougher to grapple in this as well. But it protects my hands and my partners during sparring training very well. Highly recommended. Stitches are tight, the inner liner is a little scratchy and can be smoother like RDX I feel. But overall, a solid glove on a budget.

I wanted to go with a tried and true classic training glove for fight camp. These lived up, the gloves were surprisingly narrow but the padding was still very thick. Each glove weighed 6.5 oz for the regular size, the leather is great. The image on the striking surface is scuffed from the amount of use I’ve given them. My pinky never slips out during use even when grappling heavy and the padding is that perfect medium between soft and firm. The wrist was very stiff but broke in within and hour. Overall love them, and my training partners want them too.

very good but there is no size guide so size was a bit tight

Produto original, acredito que a cor e tamanho que eu pedi já estavam no Brasil pois chegou em dois dias. A luva por si só é a melhor do mercado, já tive outras e o melhor acabamento é a da combat Sports. Vou estrear ela ainda mas quanto ao tamanho eu acredito que sou tamanho M (regular) mas comprei a Large para que eu pudesse usar com atadura, usar sem também é uma possibilidade e não fica nada grande.
