“Bad” Brad’s Scorecard: Traditional Bag Gloves by Lonsdale

Boxing product review by “Bad” Brad Berkwitt

Recently Boxing Depot.com sent me a pair of traditional bag gloves made by Lonsdale.  My old bag gloves were the red Everlast brand with the thumb enclosed.  I was interested in using these gloves because your thumb is actually attached, but a part of it remains out. 

The first thing I noticed as I landed my jab, right hand, hooks and body shots to my heavy bag, is that these gloves had a very nice amount of padding.  I always wrap my hands as well, but with the older Everlast gloves, my knuckles would still be very red. With the Lonsdale gloves, they were not red at all.

I also liked the Velcro strips that you wrap around and make it tighter around your wrist. The gloves were a medium and they fit just as I hoped they would. The partial coolflex palm is a big improvement for cooling and evaporation.

This is my third week using the gloves and they are holding up and more importantly, my hands have never felt better while I am laying it down on my heavy bag. I highly recommend these bag gloves and give them a rating of 10 out of 10!

Boxing Depot sells the traditional bag gloves by Lonsdale for $44.95.
