Who This Glove Is For
The Windy BGVHU Classic Microfiber is the brand's accessible training glove - the same Thai manufacturing heritage as the leather BGVH but with a synthetic microfiber exterior to bring the price down. Built in Windy's factory in Bangkok (est. 1951), the BGVHU uses a 3-layer foam system for reliable bag and pad work protection. Available in 8oz through 16oz across four clean colorways: Red, Grey, Black, and Silver. For boxers who want genuine Windy build quality but aren't ready to pay premium leather prices, the BGVHU makes a strong case. It's a step up from mainstream synthetic brands while remaining under $105.
Who It's Not For
- Those who insist on genuine leather
- Heavy sparring (use the BGP Proline instead)
- Competitive boxers needing certified gloves
