Combat Sports Thai Style Gloves

muaythaiguy | August 28th, 2010 - 6:36 pm

The “Combat Sports” line has developed an awesome pair of boxing gloves that have incredible wrist support but with myself being a Muay Thai practitioner, I’ve come to prefer the “Thai style” gloves a bit more. Combat Sports has now released their own Muay Thai gloves that will give consumers yet another buying option. The gloves are available in either ...

Fairtex Muay Thai Gloves

muaythaiguy | July 15th, 2010 - 2:35 am

The Fairtex line is perhaps the most popular manufacturer of Muay Thai equipment on an international level. Twins and Windy are more popular within Thailand, but Fairtex is by far the most recognized brand in the world. These gloves (which are the originals) have a “wraparound hook and loop wristband” to provide a “better fit for more comfort and control” ...

Twins Special Boxing Gloves

muaythaiguy | July 9th, 2010 - 5:48 am

Twins special is the most popular manufacturer of boxing goods in Thailand. The most popular brand on an international scale is probably Fairtex but surprisingly, Fairtex products aren’t easy to come by in Thailand. The only places that I came across that were selling the Fairtex gear were the Fairtex gyms (Pattaya and Bangkok). The rest, well, it’s mostly Twins, ...

Top King “Empower” Gloves

muaythaiguy | July 6th, 2010 - 7:51 am

Here are the “empower creativity” gloves by Top King. As you can see, the “carbon vevlar-like” design (that’s what they call it), looks pretty slick. The photos don’t do these gloves justice. On my 3rd trip to Thailand, I went to the shops outside Lumpinee stadium to pick up my gear (like I always do) and these gloves caught my ...

Bad Boy Boxing Gloves

muaythaiguy | June 29th, 2010 - 11:30 pm

Here are the boxing gloves that have been put out by Bad Boy. They look plain, but there’s nothing wrong with that. Simplicity is best sometimes. The manufacturer is claiming that these gloves will have a “worn in feel” the very first time you put them on because they’ve been pre-curved for optimal comfort. They have a “hook and loop” ...

Hayabusa 10oz Bag Gloves

muaythaiguy | June 29th, 2010 - 6:20 pm

We’ve already showcased and reviewed the Hayabusa Pro Sparring Gloves, and now, here are their 10 oz bag gloves. They look and function pretty much the same. The difference, obviously, is the weight. You want to be sparring with 16 to 18 ounce gloves and when you’re hitting the bag or the pads, you want to be using 10 to ...

Hayabusa Sparring Gloves

muaythaiguy | June 28th, 2010 - 3:53 am

There’s no doubt that the Hayabusa line is known for developing some of the best quality MMA training equipment available. It seems like every item that Hayabusa releases has a lot of thought behind both the design and the function of it. Here we have the Hayabusa pro sparring gloves. These are 16 ounces in weight, which is ideal for ...

Venom “Wave” Gloves

muaythaiguy | June 15th, 2010 - 10:52 pm

Venum fightwear recently added some striking gloves into their line up. The addition of the actual training gear (as opposed to just the clothing), is a relatively new venture for the Venum line but being based out of Thailand, producing Muay Thai style gloves seems like a natural progression. These gloves are made out of 100% premium leather, have a ...
