I love these gloves. They compliment my kanpeki elite gloves. They were supposedly modeled off the winning 16 oz and I can definately see some similarities, but there are some differences. The winnings can fit any hand size, these would fit a small to medium hand, with wraps it gets questionable. I use them to spar with because the foam complex is nice and soft, and I don't like to hurt my gym buddies. The leather is soft and work through some sort of process. I got the laced version because I feel laces allow for a more customizable fit. I gave it four stars for a couple reasons: A)the graphics were already coming off when they arrived new and B) the thumb attachment does not seem the greatest in terms of strength.
