good durable gloves,
I’ve been using these gloves for 3 years now and I had to buy a new pair as they were starting to be ripped off between the fingers.
What I like:
easy to set
good wrist support
good grip with the middle bar
What I don’t like:
using wraps can be difficult if you don’t take a size above and I recommend wraps otherwise the leather will burn your skin.
For the price and the time that I’ve used them (2-3 times a week on heavy bags), they performed very well.

|Great Pair of Gloves, Better Than Most of the Other MMA Gloves On the Market,
A few months ago I started looking around for a good pair of mma gloves to use while working the heavybag and focus mitts and I tried out several different brands before choosing the Century gloves.
I found them to be a lot more comfortable to wear and although some of the other gloves had more padding on the knuckles, they felt to bulky and cumbersome to me. As soon as I put these gloves on I knew that I had found the right gloves for me. I was even more convinced the first time that I used them on my muay thai bag. The provided great protection as well as a bit more wrist support, even though I always wrap my hands with handwraps prior to hitting the bag.
If there is any downside to these gloves, I haven’t found it yet. They have been very durable so far and I haven’t seen any signs of wear on them as of yet, and I have been using them 3 times per week for ten 3 minute rounds per punching workout. The one thing that I would like to see, is an X-large or even XX-large pair of gloves that would more easily accommodate a larger hand and handwraps.
Other than that small criticism, I would highly recommend these gloves over some of the more expensive “brand name” mma gloves on the market.

|Good glove, though light on padding..,
Overall, these gloves are good for light training, but after having used them for a while, I think I’m going to have to get some that have more robust padding in the knuckle area. The fit is very good, though as another reviewer notes, they are snug with hand wraps (which I like). The leather is a nice alternative to the vinyl and neoprene common in many bag gloves because it allows your hand to breathe. My only issue is that the padding over the knuckles is thin (1/4 inch foam), and now that it has been beaten down a little, I find I have some soreness even with hand wraps.
