Bottom Line

RDX's cheapest option - passable for casual gym-goers and beginners who need a functional training glove under $25. Don't expect durability or serious hand protection beyond light workouts.

Strong price-to-performance for its tier.

Who This Glove Is For

The RDX T17 Aura is RDX's most affordable boxing glove, sitting at an entry-level $24.99 price point. It's built with Kalix Skin - RDX's patented vegan engineered leather - and features their NOVA TECH flat arc radial panel designed to curve over the knuckles for more even impact dispersion. The MG-2 mould combines compressed EVA with blacktop foam for basic shock absorption, and the Hepta-Fused 7-panel construction is hand-stitched for durability. An Inner-Aura moisture-wicking lining keeps hands dry during training. At this price, the T17 Aura is best for casual fitness training and light bag work - not a sparring or heavy-use glove.

Who It's Not For

  • Regular sparring
  • Heavy bag specialists
  • Intermediate or advanced boxers
