    Hello,

    I am seeking for your advice forum veterans. I have a question, and I really hope that I am not in breach of the forum rules.

    I am relatively new to boxing (up to a year). For the past several months I have been using Cleto Reyes 16oz velcro training gloves with extra padding. These gloves I found to be perfect for me. The amount of padding was just right for my knuckles. Once I broke them in, they started feeling even nicer on my hands.

    Recently I decided to try out the standard Cleto Reyes 16oz velcro training black gloves (with out the extra padding), to see how they feel like. I was always curious about the standard gloves, so I bought them from one of the official distributors here in California (He is listed on Cleto's website).

    Once I tried the standard gloves on and started working a bag, after 10-15 minutes I felt that they are a bit thin for me. I did like the feeling of more impact on my knuckles, but as I am not a seasoned fighter, after some time it did not feel nice (I do wrap my hands). Offcourse, this is my personal feeling, and it should not be used as a reflection on gloves as a whole. I do feel better when using the extra padded gloves in comparison to the standard ones.

    They are excellent gloves for many reasons (the quality, the materials, the craftsmanship), but unfortunately I do feel better when using the extra padded version.

    The bottom line now, is that I have a second pair of new 16oz Reyes velcro training gloves that I wore for 10-15 minutes (I did not even sweat in them).

    My question to you forum visitors is:
    How can I offer the gloves for sale to someone here, without being in forum rules breach?

    Regards

    No worries. I really had no intentions to start spreading hidden advertisements.
    I am not a distributor of any sort. I was just hoping that it would be easier to get rid of the gloves by posting on the boxing forum.

    In summary - duly noted.

    Cheers

    Why not give them to someone who cant afford a set of gloves . It will make you feel better also.

    Yeah, the bin would be another option :) but I think it would be a real waste of a pair of good gloves ...

    I thought to shave off 30 bucks of the retail price, which makes it $110 excluding shipping costs.
