Fairtex Heavy Hitter's Mexican Style Boxing Gloves BGV9

They are good quality you feel like your hands and the gloves become one giving you that accurate powerful shots on the bag

Fits well, light, for bags, mitts, taps.

Fit & Comfort:
Out of the box, the gloves felt good overall. The left glove fit great, especially at the fingertips — snug but not tight. However, the right glove felt noticeably tighter and different in the way it wrapped my hand. Not a huge issue, but definitely felt unbalanced between both hands.

Now, the thumb compartment on the left glove was rough the first few sessions. I know leather gloves need to break in, but it was way more painful than I expected — to the point where my thumb went numb from how restricted it felt. It’s gotten better with use, but if you’re sensitive or prone to hand/thumb pain, be ready for an uncomfortable break-in period.

Wrist Support:
Honestly, this is where the gloves shine. For a Velcro model, the wrist support is excellent. Really locks in the hand and gives that secure feeling — definitely above average in this category.

Padding & Knuckle Protection:
The padding is solid, but I did notice something weird: it wiggles slightly during some punches, especially with hooks or angular shots. It’s not a huge flaw, but it feels like the padding isn’t locked down tight enough inside the glove shell. Straight punches feel fine though.

Materials & Build Quality:
The leather is legit high-quality, and the stitching is clean. No visible issues in the build, and the gloves look great visually. You can tell care went into the construction.

Final Thoughts:
For my first pair of Velcro gloves, I’m overall happy. But at 3,000 MXN, I did expect a more ergonomic and comfortable feel out of the box. The glove takes some time to mold to your hand, and especially the thumb positioning could be improved — it doesn’t naturally follow the curve of your fist at first, and it feels a bit restrictive.

That said, I would recommend them, just be ready for a painful break-in, especially around the thumb. Once that’s done, you’re left with a quality glove that performs well, supports your wrist, and looks sharp.

Bought them as a substitute for Cleto Reyes without expecting much. They beat every single one of my expectations. Durable, comfortable and light. I use them regularly for bag work and sparring and they excel every time.

The gloves inner lining caused my finger tips to go numb and the company won’t accept the return. The glove is new and tested once
