Wow! That is all I can say about these beautiful gloves! I've been using them for several months, about two to three times a week, and I can honestly say that these are the BEST gloves I have ever used. They have held up well and (despite the smell) still feel like a brand new pair of gloves. They look sleek. I've gotten so many compliments in the gym. Someone even assumed that I boxed professionally... because of my gloves! Though my last pair of Titles were great, they seemed to have been made for someone Anthony Joshua's size. I felt like a kid wearing my dad's gloves. These, however, fit perfectly! I FEEL like a pro when I wear these. They took a few uses to wear in and to get used to. Like most gloves, they were tight at first. They also retained a lot of heat. For the first week or so I felt as if my hands were burning inside the gloves (I was also using them during the summer; so this could have added to the feeling). But after about two weeks, they conformed to my hands and stopped feeling so hot. They have great wrist support. Above everything, I wanted gloves that would protect my wrists. Nothing is worse than feeling that sharp sting in your wrist as you throw a hook and land the wrong way. With these, I have never felt any pain in my wrists. They also provide a significant amount of padding for my knuckles, while still allowing me to feel when I make contact with the heavy bag (or a face). One bad thing: they tend to smell really bad! My pair before this were the TITLE Boxing Pro Style Leather Gloves, which I used for over a year and they never started smelling bad. These though, even with glove deodorizers in after each use, tend to smell pretty funky. I have to clean them once or twice a week with Lysol (which may be normal for gloves... I may have been spoiled with the Title gloves in the past). If you are looking for a durable, comfortable, and stylish pair of boxing gloves, look no further than these venomous gloves. Read more
Love these gloves great for training their stylish and great quality! Read more
$77.48 after tax on January 7th, 2024. Photo of the gloves are from today November 9th, 2025. I have gotten a lot of use out of these gloves doing bag work and they are still in optimal condition nearly 2 years later. They are without a doubt the best gloves I have ever used or tried on. They feel lightweight and protect my hands great. They are my favorite color combination. They are my favorite brand. They are elite. Read more
These are my third pair of gloves since I started training Muay Thai a few years ago. My first pair is a 16oz Fairtex, and second pair is 12oz Lupus gloves. This time around, I decided that I would spend a bit more for premium gloves that would further minimize the damage to the knuckles, wrist and ligaments from training. With research online, I was able to narrow the choices down but ultimately went with these 14oz Venum Elite Boxing Gloves. They sold me with "handmade from Thailand". After 1.5 months of use at 4-5x/week, these are by far the best gloves that I have tried. The outer shell/layer feels really durable, and there have been no signs of wear to date. What I appreciate the most is the flexibility of the synthetic leather! I started wearing knuckle guards recently as they were getting bruised and discolored with just hand wraps alone. (I work in hospital as a provider and purple knuckles make me look/feel like a wife beater) I bend the gloves slightly in a back and forth motion as I insert my hands/wraps/knuckle guard and I am able to get a good grip at the end while fitting everything into place. I tried to put on my 16oz fairtex gloves with the same setup and had a lot of trouble fitting everything inside comfortably. The padding is exceptional as well, I can barely feel the impact when working the heavy bag. I am also a big fan of the longer cuffs and larger velcro bc I can use my apple watch during workouts now. Overall, I could not be happier with my purchase. These have definitely exceeded my expectations and I will heavily consider Venum again should I need to get more gear in the future. Read more
Wrist and hand support is superb. I have had these gloves for over three years, and they have been through thousands of hours of vigorous use. Sparring, padwork, bag work, fighting, these gloves have always held up. They always looked sleek with nice durable leather. I always thought I had the nicest looking gloves in the gym. This week, after 3 long years of using them nearly everyday, they finally gave out. The leather began to crack and fall apart. After retiring these gloves, I can confidently say I am going to buy another pair. They have worked better for me than any other brand I have tried. They are even well ventilated, so the smell of sweat never lingers too much, which also makes cleaning much easier. Read more
These gloves are really well made—durable, comfortable, and look awesome in person. We got the 8 oz size for my 12-year-old, and while they fit okay, they are just a little bit big for him. Still works fine for training though! Read more
I have large hands and the 16oz fit perfect. Gloves are beautiful, quality is acceptable. But I have to warn if you are new to boxing, they are much harder than other brands. If you plan to buy as a starter, probably it will hurt your hands faster than other brands. For someone with more than 1 years of experience, I highly recommend these glove due to the bang for the bucks factor. Read more
Very good gloves. I used them for training and sparring. Good flexibility in the grip for clinching. You will notice the difference in these compared to lower cost gloves. Read more
