Choosing the gloves
Built for athletes who put in regular MMA rounds and need a glove that stays out of the way of their grip. The open-finger layout suits bag sessions, pad combinations, clinch entries, pummeling, and controlled partner drills. The compact profile keeps hand speed high and transitions clean when you’re mixing striking with takedown work. If your focus is heavy glove-to-glove sparring, reach for a fuller-padded option; for daily reps and drilling, this is the straightforward pick.
The cut is compact with a close feel across the knuckles. Expect a secure hold that won’t float on the bag. Thin quick-wraps can fit, but bulky wraps will tighten the glove. This model is currently available in size L; if you usually wear L in MMA gloves, anticipate a snug, training-ready fit. If you border between M and L, this will feel firm. If you’re typically XL, it may run tight.
A resilient PU leather shell handles daily contact with bags and mitts without getting heavy or stiff. Knuckle cushioning takes the sting out of repetitive impact while keeping feedback from the target. The half-finger, open design preserves dexterity for grabbing and transitions, and the lightweight build helps your hands stay fast. The overall construction is simple and durable, with minimal bulk to reduce interference during clinch work and partner drills.
Wipe the surface after sessions, open the glove, and air dry fully out of your bag. Avoid heaters or direct sun. PU holds up well to routine use; regular cleaning and dry time slows breakdown of the outer layer and padding. Trim nails to protect seams. In the Apollo lineup, Bastion is the straightforward daily trainer. Crossfire and Serpent offer alternative MMA glove profiles, while Blackout Boxing Gloves cover pure boxing rounds when you need full coverage.
