Durability is unreal. I’ve put these gloves through countless rounds of padwork and sparring, they still feel brand new.

Perfect for beginners and advanced strikers. The fit and protection make long training sessions way easier.
David Chen

I use the gloves daily in camp. They feel broken-in from day one but hold up through hard rounds.

Carson
These look amazing and are the most comfortable muay thai shorts I've ever worn. Honestly currently my favorite! Great product!!
Esteban
I love the shorts
Joel C.
As advertised!
Zack Q.
Good quality material and fit.
Dominique C.
Sick shorts.
Diego
Almost perfect, sad that they don't have a drawstring
Ryan J.
Great quality and great service, only problem I had was it didn't get delivered on time!
Austin S.
Fast delivery and excellent design and quality!
Robert
Amazing . True to size and lightweight
Bhuvan
I have more expensive pair of mma shorts and these are priced just right . A little light weight but I like that as these are lighter than my hayabusa and virtually same quality as my engage shorts.
Bhuvan
Price + looks are excellent , fit is true to size and well worth the money.
Dom P.
Most comfortable pair of Muay Thai shorts I’ve bought. The internal webbing adds for great breathing and relaxed feel for working on my shitty switch kicks especially. (Dam desk job)
Albert C.
Love the Fit!
Luke M.
Received this initially as a gift and the quality was so just good, works perfectly as streetwear and training wear, that I bought a handful to outfit our fight team!
Carlos U.
Soft feel, good stretch, color stays very solid on the hottest, sweatiest days in Thailand.
Danai T.
Amazing gear and awesome product service, shout-out to the team for mailing back my first batch purchase immediately after the courier messed up.
Dave Shaw
I am a big fan of this brand. I own a pair of their shorts and I’ve had these gloves for a couple of months now. So let’s talk about the gloves.
Nick
These are great shin pads with awesome cushion.
Eugene B.
Dollar for Dollar some of the best gloves I've ever owned. Excellent protection for your knuckles and the wrist support is good too.
Devon Rylski
Amazing gloves, can’t say enough good things about it, super comfortable, just tight enough to let you know it’s a new glove but plenty of room for your fingers to be comfortable, nice wrist support , perfect amount of padding soft but firm, highly recommended
Jose Rojas
Prefer a premium fit and softer material personally but just happy for what it stands for
Peter Yang
Quality gear for a great price. Shinguards fit nice and snug and I really like the padding and support on the gloves.
Josh F
This glove looks great. Its leather and is comfy.
Edward
It's more of a fist centric glove meaning the knuckle protection is amazing. Very dense foam is focused around the fist box allowing you to land bombs for long rounds.
Cory S.
The Velcro does lack support vs much more expensive Thai brands. Therefore in my opinion this is a great training glove for a more experienced fighter with wraps to help brace wrists.
Shane S.
I've hammered very dense Decha, Twins, Top King pads as hard as I can w the 16ozs for months and they held up very well. Velcro is still holding up, no peeling, and foamnis finally soft enough for lighter sparring or hard sparring w head gear and advanced partners.
Nick G.
All in all a fantastic glove dollar for dollar. If this goes on sale it's a no brainer to grab 2 pairs and save the wear and tear on your pretty gloves. These are my go to daily driver sweat mops.
Khalil E.
Love these new pads.
MaryAnne
