Hi all,
Can anyone recommend a good pair of gloves for sparring? The ones I use now are the foam-dipped vinyl ones. I can't grab properly with those and I've hurt my knuckles before punching with those.
I've seen some people in my class wear those opened-finger ones. I've been told that gloves that allow one to grab is better than those foam-dipped ones. Is that true? Are those any good?
Sorry if these questions are rather "newbie" but I've only been practising martial arts for 6 months. Thanks in advance for any input/comments.
