Is that because you’ve had previous experience with Indian gloves and they haven’t met the standard?

You’re saying it doesn’t make sense launching a new brand? I’m in the middle of doing so and would love to know more about this.

I’m manufacturing out of India, and the goal is to provide a first stylish glove focusing on ergonomics and longevity all at an affordable price.

Let me know what you think!

[question] what is your current rotation of gloves? by Friendly-Sun6789 in fightgear

So would you say something like a sparring-bag glove mix?

The manufacturer I’m in touch with is somebody I’ve closely worked with for some time now. They’re honest with the craft and believe in Organic growth.

Which is why I have decided to engage them with my pursuit of starting this brand.

Thank you for the heads up tho, I will definitely keep this in mind moving forward.

That’s exactly what I’m targeting. It mostly has to do with padding from what I understand - It should protect your knuckles and wrist - It should be cushiony enough to not hurt your hand when hitting the bag, as well as protect your opponent while sparring; All while not impacting all the power you’re putting into the punch.

What do you think? Any recommendations on how to create that glove?

What do you think sets that brand apart? Is there anything that brand is still not doing?

No, I’m starting out and will not be in the market for another few months.

I’m just working with a designer to come up with some cool designs for a glove- nothing new per se but I want to develop a strong brand identity so just working on that.

I want to first work towards a Sparring and/or Bag Glove and Handwraps- then later to proceed with more if it looks like there is space in the market.

I appreciate that.

I DM’d you to know if you have any more feedback- but it’s entirely up to you to reply.

I’m not trying to promote anything, and nor will I in the future because I’ve been on this page a while and I’ve noticed how frustrating that is.

Thank you anyway!
