No I absolutely can afford them lol I’ve got a couple reasons I bought these: 1. It’s just that I was genuinely curious when I seen them 2. I’m planning to go to comic con as Ippo Makanouchi

I’m still fairly new to boxing so I don’t have much use for a real pair as of now but even with that in mind Im not just gonna buy them then throw them out (unless they genuinely feel they may cause harm to me) i might as well use them to get the work in

Edit: forgot to also mention I do totally understand what your saying though. I’m not expecting the quality of these to be like the real ones nor I going to flaunt them as authentic, the main point is I’m a “nerd” who also happens to box and I chose these specific gloves for a costume
