I've owned these Fighting Sports Tri-Techs for about 10 months now and feel as is I'm at a point where I can write an honest review without any bias. Too often when you buy a new set of gloves, you're lulled into loving them (Lord knows I'm in love with my Boon Training gloves), blinded by any flaws they may have. Though once the honeymoon is over, you begin to assess the gloves for what they are. In this case, however, I had the exact opposite experience with these gloves; I didn't like them when I first received them. As a matter of fact, I kind of felt like Title had sold me a line, boisterously comparing their made in China look-a-likes to the pinnacle of boxing gloves: Winning. I've warmed up to the gloves a bit in the passing months but am still a little tentative to recommend them. Here's why:FIT: First things first-- these gloves are big on the inside. If you're one of those guys (or girls) who doesn't like to wear their handwraps then these things will practically fly off your fists. Fighting Tri-Techs are not Thai gloves that you can reasonably use without wrapping your hands. Hell, even when you wrap your hands, the gloves feel a little big on the inside. I'm not a large guy mind you (5'9 at 175) so if you're a big boy with large hands you may love the fit (if it helps, Cleto Reyes Training gloves fit my hands perfectly). You do, however, get used to the fit and in a sense it can teach you how to properly close your fist when punching.
QUALITY: The Quality of these gloves is pretty good. Initially when I received them, I was comparing them to my Cleto Reyes Training Gloves, and was not impressed with quality. The leather is good, the stitching is fine, but nothing stands out. That isn't really a fair comparison though, since Cleto Reyes are about the highest quality gloves you can buy. However, considering Title lists the retail price for these puppies as $199 (a dubious price point to say the least),in a sense it is fair to judge them against Cletos. They compare favorably to other $80-90 gloves and as long as you only pay between $80-90 you won't complain about the quality.
PADDING/TYPE OF GLOVE: This is where you really need to ask yourself what type of glove your looking for. These gloves are heavily padded and soft, however the shape of them is incredibly bulky. I've hit the bag with them and sparred and let me tell you, it takes some getting used to on both ends. On the bag, they feel good but lack pop. They offer good protection but I question the softness of the padding. If you have a hard bag and heavy hands then you may find your knuckle punching right through the padding. I've done it before on a gym bag and it did not feel good. Most of the time though, you won't feel a damn thing. On the sparring front, I'm not a fan of these gloves. I like sparring gloves that are compact, allow me to see out of a good turtle guard so I can catch and move accordingly (Combat Sport IMFs come to mind). These gloves are just too obtrusive.
ALL-IN-ALL: These gloves are good but overpriced. At $70-80 I would recommend them, but at $100, they're just not worth it. If you need gloves with great hand protection, go with a pair of IMFs. The padding and fit will be better and the compact nature of the gloves will feel a lot more comfortable than these.
