    Depends. How often do you plan on using them? Are you going to only wear them when you fight or are you going to train and spar in them as well?

    Then the cheap ones should be fine.

    oh great, i have a smile on my face. i was almost sure you were going to tell me to not be a cheap skate and that they would wear out quickly.

    Youd think the leather ones don't breathe as well as the nylon. Not sure though, don't box. :D

    i have the nylon shoes, and i love them... theyve lasted about 4 months so far, and they are still good. the only problem is the front of them are start ing to rip open, so im gonna get a new pair for christmas, a little more expensive ones, but the nylons are great for a first decent pair.
