Looking for new gear - Any recommendations?

Question

I use Title/Twins, and Fairtex currently. I am looking at Combat Sports Int'l gear for my next set of open-palm sparring gloves. Anyone have experience with this stuff?

Answer 1

What kind of martial arts do you do?  And what level are you at?  I switched from sparring gloves to boxing gloves after brown belt for more protection.  

The material that Fairtex uses for their gloves smells less in the long run than other brands...

Answer 2

I use top contender, it's good quality, and cheap.

they sell it at www.ringside.com

Answer 3

champion, tap out and fairtex  are really good quality . check the stitching on them and look for thick nylon threads. if they have that it doesnt make that much of a difference what brand you might save a buck$$  also comfort is really important
