A wide wraparound Velcro strap is easy to adjust and provides a secure and comfortable fit. About Everlast The name Everlast is synonymous with boxing. Renown internationally as a manufacturer of boxing equipment, Everlast started out as a swimwear manufacturer in 1910. Headquartered in the Bronx, NY, the company was founded by 17-year-old Jacob Golomb. The son of a tailor and an avid swimmer, Jacob Golomb was dissatisfied with the durability of swimsuits because they barely lasted a season, so he began making suits that he guaranteed would last for a full year. He proudly gave them the name, Everlast. Although the swimsuits did not last through the years, the name did. Over the next years, Golomb expanded his company into a small retail store that carried a full line of sports equipment. In 1917, a young fighter named Jack Dempsey introduced boxing to Golomb and Everlast. Dempsey asked Golomb to construct protective headgear that would last more than 15 rounds of intensive boxing training. Golomb specially designed the training gear for Dempsey. In 1919, Dempsey won the world's heavyweight championship wearing boxing gloves made for him by Golomb. Everlast became the headquarters for boxing equipment throughout the world. In 1925, Golomb designed elastic-waist trunks to replace the leather-belted trunks then worn by boxers. These trunks, now known as boxer trunks, immediately became famous. Jacob Golomb ran the business until he passed away in the early 1950's and his son, Dan, took over. In 1958, Ben Nadorf joined Everlast and purchased 50% of the company from the Golomb family. When Dan Golomb passed away in 1995, Nadorf purchased the family's remaining 50% interest. Nadorf remained the President and Principle Share Holder of Everlast until October 24, 2000. Everlast men's and women's apparel and accessories continue today to be tremendously successful both inside and outside the ring. In addition, Everlast boxing trunks and equipment remain the proud and undefeated champion of the boxing industry for more than 90 years. The history continues, as the name states. Everlast has a traditional past and a knockout future. What's in the Box? One pair of training gloves Manufacturer Warranty 1 year

Nice for light sparring but dont hit the bag or your opponent too hard with any gloves like these July 17, 2010 Tyrone Yates We do a lot of sparring at the gym. Everlast is ususally a good bet. I have only heard of everlast boxing gloves falling apart too early maybe twice over the last 14 years. These are good gloves for sparing, etc. I still keep a pair in my bag but I made the switch to a higher priced glove a while back and haven't pulled these out of the bag since. I've gone through a few pairs of these gloves over the years and they are well worth the money. Once you go to a higher quality brand you probably won't go back to these, but they get the job done for a good price. I wouldn't recommend them for just hitting the bag because they're a bit hard and you risk damaging your wrist.
Decent Training Gloves July 16, 2010 Aznbrybry The Everlast Pro Style Training Gloves are a decent pair of gloves to train on the heavy bags with. They are ok for sparring but I would prefer something with a little more padding. The only slight issue that I have with the gloves is that they are a tight fit with wraps on. I use the Evergel 120" speed wraps and it is a little hard to get the gloves on. I don't have big hands I have average sized hands. So if you have big hands I would try looking for a different pair. Overall, it is a good pair of gloves for hitting the heavy bag. I would just suggest to getting a thicker pair of gloves if you want to spar.
Good, but have a weird smell. July 6, 2010 jill (brooklyn, ny) These seem to be working out fine. I've only worn them once (for kickboxing) but my Trainer thinks they will be great for my purposes, and they seemed to fit okay. (I got the 12oz and I am 5'7" 125lbs.) The most notable thing is, THEY ARE SMELLY. Like, some crazy weird synthetic smell, from the moment I took them out of the package. I actually had to leave them out of my gym bag for awhile to air out. When my husband came in later, he was like "Whoa! There is some WEIRD SMELL in the office!!!" And I was like "It's my new boxing gloves." It took days for them to be tolerable, and even now I can't leave them in an enclosed space for long. I've only had them for about a month though, so hopefully it will go away in time. The shared boxing gloves at the gym REALLY stink (like old sweat) so I guess I'd rather have "new boxing glove smell" instead!
Great Buy June 7, 2010 B. Chance (Dunn, NC) Great buy, good quality product the fit is a lil snug but nothing too uncomfortable, love the blue color.
Nice gloves June 1, 2010 Martin J. Edwards I bought these gloves to use on my heavy bag. I looked around at local sports stores, sears, etc. They were all similarly priced at $29.99 You can get the red ones for $18 which is almost 1/2 price. I bought two pairs of the 12oz gloves - 1 blue for me and 1 pink for my wife. I've beat my bag to death in the past week with these gloves and I love them. They fit very well and in my opinion are definitely professional quality.
