RIVAL Boxing RB11 Evolution Heavy Bag Gloves, with a High-Density, Power-Transmitting Foam and Microfiber Outer

Excellent gloves and likely the best I have ever owned. Have owned 3-4 pairs of top end premium gloves and these are it. Great for bag and mitt work. Good size to them and fit well using the sizing chart. Returned the RFX Guerrero gloves and exchanged for these. Padding is excellent, enough to protect, but lightweight and crisp on contact. Looking forward to seeing how they hold up.

I have a set of Rival RB60 Compacts and they are great for double end bag so I went with these for heavy bag work and man they are solid! These gloves are a substantial jump up in quality/performance when compared to my 8 month old Hayabusa H5's. The Microfiber "leather" they use is REALLY tough and padding is firm, seems like it's going to hold up for a while unlike a "squishier" glove. Love the loud crack you get when you land a clean shot on the bag! You really do notice missed punches more with these gloves which is really nice for teaching yourself how to land cleaner more consistently. The thumb is kind of tight but not really bothersome, and I'm sure after another few sessions it will get better ( only have about 2 hours in the gloves). Love the wrist strap system, I wear 1-2 wraps and my hand/wrist feels so solid! I don't see any reason to stray away from Rival at this point, they've convinced me that their products are worth the money!

Recently ordered these gloves in blue. Very well made and good looking gloves. I ordered the XL because I have large hands and they fit perfectly and snug without being too tight. They didn't need much breaking in and are well padded. I have had already received several compliments on how nice they look. I had ordered a different brand and could not even get them around my wrists. Plus the Rival was $100 cheaper.

I ordered the RB11 in XL,recived L. Immediately contacted the seller(FORZA), they said sorry and was willing to change without any discussion . But unfortunately im in the dominican republic and to send it back would cost almost 80$. I tried the glove without handwraps, snug fit bit absolutely good to train with them.(hand circumference 91/2) Maybe in a few months i can use them with handraps also. I told the seller that i can handle the smaller size. they offered me directly a 25% discount(40$). Absolutely great and super service— good job FORZA. About the glove: I am 105kg and 180cm, mostly i train on the bag or with the mitts. For light sparring i use my cleto reyes extra padding in 16oz(more like 18/19oz) absolutely love them and they have a unique fit. Now i use for the training session the RB11, first impression is absolutely amazing. Nice fit, good thumb positioning. The velcro system locks your hand in and gives amazing wrist support. Inside very comfortable, but definitely need some time to break in. I highly recommend this glove for the ones who like to work hard. Definitely not a sparring glove. About the seller: heard and read so many bad comments. But what they did was just super proffesional. Great customer service.

I already have another Rival in size M, so I ordered this one in M too. Unfortunately, it was pretty disappointing because it fits much tighter than the RS11 and didn’t feel right on my hand. I ended up giving it to my son.

This is my second pair of these gloves, still have the first pair and still in great shape , but wanted a second pair just in case the first pair didn't make it after near constant use over an period of nearly two years of working the heavy bag three to four times a week. Keep in mind that like most gloves these will take a little time to break in for a comfortable fit especially win wearing your hand wraps but the more you use them the better they get!

Giving the Gloves 4 stars for now. Only got one session in, for some reason I wasn’t able to pin my heavy bag footage. Size/ Fit: My hands are a size Medium but I like to use hand wraps so I bought the large and those fit well with hand wraps. Wrist Support: The main reason I bought these was for not only the impact absorbing tech, but also the GREAT wrist support system they have. Padding: Out of the box the padding is pretty tough. I’ve seen some say that it’s hard, so I’d recommend using wraps the first couple sessions. And before anyone gets mad or disheartened understand that the padding in this glove is ment to withstand heavy impact and since that’s the case you HAVE to put in the work to at the very least break the padding in. But if you’d like another pair of bag gloves that come with good padding out the box I’d recommend the Rival RB7’s. These are great gloves I’ve put in countless reps and hours with them and recommend them heavily. The only thing I’d mention for those is the lack of wrist support. I love you God Bless

Look nice and can lace up tight
