Lab Verdict

A durable, well-rounded training glove with excellent wrist support. From use, it performs well across bag and mitt work, though harder heavy bags can still be felt on impact. Works for light sparring, but not the most protective option. As a handmade glove, shape and fit can vary slightly, and there are known counterfeit versions on the market, so sourcing from trusted sellers is important!

Bottom Line

A classic Mexican-style training glove from Cleto Reyes featuring handcrafted leather construction and a convenient hook-and-loop wrist closure for everyday gym training.

Strong price-to-performance for its tier.
