    Glove Weight Recommendation?

    Basically, I started Boxing and am starting to get serious after 6-7 weeks... and am sick of using the clubs gloves. So I would like you to recommend to me what size I should buy... 10oz, 12 oz, 14 oz? I have quite small hands because I am only 5'4" so I would like a recommendation that would fit me comfortably.

    I would like to use these gloves for sparring and hitting the bag as we do at the gym... plus when practicing technique with a partner (hard to explain, basically... jabbing at each other while keeping hands up like a mitt).

    So basically I would like a recommended size for all, any advice will be truly appreciated. Thanks in advanced! :find02:

    Green Karma to anybody who helps, even if I don't go down that road of advice I will still show appreciation.

    14-16s should be good enough.

      I am definitely not getting 16's I hate them... SO MUCH, 14's and below I could live with.

        Get used to them, nobody likes the 16s at first. But then you learn to appreciate them.

          Well they just seem too big for my hands to be honest, like having your hand in a bin liner or something.

          I think I will go for some 14's, thanks for helping... green karma.

            get some top 10 16's they are smaller

            Twins 16's are huge, I can't even tighten them around my forearm that well.

              14 oz gloves. We are the same height.

              How much you weigh?

                I use 18 oz. Title Training Gloves for bag work, mitts and sparring. I love them and have no problems with them whatsoever. I want to use them for strictly bag work, though. I also want to buy some 14oz. gloves for sparring, maybe some Reyes or Grant but those bitches are expensive. Here are the ones I have....

                  i used to have those gloves, in 16oz. i thought the hand compartment was TOO damn tight.

                  what do you think of the hand compartment?

                    u need 16's to spar.. and the more weight, the more u have to work.. the addidas 16's i got are smaller than my punch ones.. abit more expensive thought hehe.. look around though.. they might be big, but its not like it matters, right?
