Sparring Gloves for Kickboxing

[Iron_Eagle_76]

What are some opinions on the best sparring gloves for kickboxing. Personally, I use these http://www.ringside.com/DETAIL.ASPX?ID=25232, and have also used these http://www.combatsports.com/detail.aspx?ID=22288, both of which are excellent sparring gloves. Any other opinions on good gloves to use?

I like ringside and windy. pork chop hates windy, but loves grant - only the ones on the grant website. the grant gloves sold by century and ringside suck. mk likes fairtex. I hate fairtex's service. chop and I like cleto reyes, but think they cost too much.

Fairtex equipment is great, the service sucks harder than a Bangkok street girl

I've heard a lot of mixed things about Windy, some good, some bad. One guy told me they just fit strange, but I haven't used them so I can't say. Windy and Fairtex both seem overpriced to me.

Dang, you know me too well. hehe

Just wanted to add a few things:

Twins are, hands down, my favorite Thai equipment company, across the board. In fact, I'm thinking about getting some more Twins sparring gloves.

Ringside Ultimate Classic sparring gloves are some of the most safe gloves I've ever used, well made, but difficult to use if you need to earn some respect. On the other hand, I think I'm finding Grants to be a little too sparsely padded- the super bag gloves don't do a great job of protecting against knuckle injury from daily boxing & the sparring gloves aren't so partner friendly once you break them in.

Reyes are good, my friends love 'em but the reason I don't use 'em is coz they don't fit me well.

I hear good things about Rival equipment.

I just got a pair of these:

I've only sparred one day in them but I love 'em. They fit me well but I'm kinda big and have fairly meaty hands.

I don't have any experience with a bunch of other brands but I think these are ok for general school use:
