Recently started wearing Byakko gloves for my own boxing training. By far the best pair i’ve owned and I will be recommending my personal training clients to get their own for our sessions together.

The quality of the glove is exceptional for the price point. And most gloves this cheap when you throw really hard punches leave some type of impression on your hands while these do not. These gloves will protect you. The padding is a medium semi soft version that is good for both heavy bag or sparring. The impact face of the glove is rounded not flat so if you do prefer a flatter face glove that gives a more resounding smack on leather this is not that glove. Overall these gloves outperform the budget entries from Century or Everlast by a factor of at least two times and come in cheaper than both.

Love these gloves. Had some old 16s that were wearing out from using them in the gym. Got these at a great price as part of a promotion and after the first wear they feel great. Great wrist stability, weight is perfect, and they are super comfy. Look forward to trying some other Byakko gear in the near future.

In general, the gloves are absolutely amazing. I purchased the 16oz gloves. The curved section of the glove is great when it comes to wearing and removing them. Great for Muay Thai. Good support, ventilation, and secure wrapping around the wrists and hands. Minimal vibrations or uncomfortable pressure from impacts.

Yo! These boxing gloves are legit!!! I just got into boxing and have been looking for a high quality glove that fits my hand size. I have very small hands and it has been hard finding gloves that fit well while being comfortable. Not only do they fit PERFECTLY but the comfort is UNREAL. These are now my new favorite gloves and can not wait to train in them. Everything is high quality about these gloves. The smell of REAL LEATHER, the fit, the comfort, the performance. Lets go!

We have just got into boxing, and these gloves are awesome. Firstly the team at Byakko were super helpful with any questions i had (im a newby) and they guided me to the perfect gloves. Packaging looks great and the gloves feel amazing. One thing i notice straight away is the quality, these look like they are going to last a lifetime. I will post some photos and a video of me working out on the pads later on. So happy to have a good pair of gloves!

I ordered the 16oz gloves for training purposes. The gloves are awesome. One of my favorite things is the wrist. Its tight and compact. I love that. The velcro is very strong. Since the edges of the strap arent thick they dont catch on anything and unstrap. I hate when that happens, so that is a plus with these for me. The padding inside is strong. The weight is obviously distributed through the knuckles as the wrist isnt over packed. It will protect your hands very well. The inner lining feels good as well. It doesnt feel thin or abrasive. Im sure others will mention the lack of colors, but I love the color of these. The blue on black leather pops and looks awesome when throwing punches to me. Overall, great gloves. Im 62 with larger hands and they fit perfectly fine for me. The only negative I can think is not being able to have heavier options. Yet. But the company is newer so Im sure many more options are to come.

I ordered these for my son who had long outgrew his last pair. Hes had a punching bag and speedball since he was 12 years old and actually had to grow into the first pair. My boy is very low key and usually accepts gifts with a rather aloof, Cool; thanks. When he realized what was in the package as he was opening it he lit up like a Christmas tree! He was still excited and eager to put them on and had me catching punches with the sparring mitts right away. My son is 17 now, over 62, and weighs in around 240. He doesnt have hands, he has paws and the 16oz gloves fit him great. The gloves are well stitched and well padded and have a good finger fold. Im very happy with this selection and highly recommend.

First things first. I add the real cons to the gloves in this review because...thats what I do. So stay tuned, itll be a balanced show. Lets start. You arent paying a hundred bucks. Youre paying half that. And youre getting a glove that hits with gloves over double this price point. But lets talk about what you get for two quarters. The leather is soft, smooth and supple. That means if you put your hand in and squeeze its not noisy or cheap feeling. The leather has a nice feel to it. Not a cheap painted or fake feel when you first pick them up. The stitching is double stitched. Near flawless. Velcro strap is long. Easy to wrap tight around your wrist. My cons? They smell like ink when you open them. Not good wrist padding. Feels stiff. Cardboard like. It isnt likable to be honest. Handbox is loose, which isnt a deal breaker and is common at this price but I prefer tighter. The glove response leaves something to be desired with a loose handbox. However. No glove at this price has these points well addressed so I dont feel thats totally fair to ding only these gloves on. Ill also ding them on no color selection. You picked weight only. Looks matter too. Also this is the softest glove youll find at this price. Soft enough that sparring is easy and affordable without being the kid with the cheap brick gloves. These would be my first, second and third for a kid on a budget doing contact at the gym. A con for soft gloves like these is for a 200lb+ man you MIGHT hit hard enough to feel slight discomfort on very heavy or hard bags. But then again, a glove good for sparring is usually less good on a heavy bag and vice versa so you cant win them all. Its basic glove padding 101. Id say most children in the teenage or so ranted will have no issue using these for both. Overall, beats the competition out to triple the price and punches with them even so. I have my preferences but if I started from scratch these would be my first choice.

I bought these for my 18-year-old son who needed some gloves for his punching bag. He absolutely loves them! They give him way better support for his wrists than another pair of gloves he has. Plus the design is really sharp. Im planning on buying him the hand wraps next.
