All about Cleto Reyes boxing gloves

From model selection and weight advice to maintenance and limited editions — below you will find all the information you need to choose the right Cleto Reyes boxing gloves.

The Puncher's Glove: what makes Cleto Reyes unique

Cleto Reyes boxing gloves are the gold standard in the professional boxing world. The Mexican brand has a legendary status accompanied by a generous dose of nostalgia—especially when it comes to traditional leather boxing gloves in the high-end segment.

In the boxing world, Cleto's are known as "punchers gloves": light, balanced, and compact compared with other brands. The secret lies in the unique latex-foam padding that does not absorb moisture (water or sweat) and adapts to your hands with use.

Velcro Sparring or Lace-Up Closure: Two Models Compared

Fight2Win carries both main models of Cleto Reyes boxing gloves.

Wrap-Around Sparring Gloves (hook-and-loop) — the most popular choice for training and sparring. Easy to put on and take off, long cuff for optimal wrist support. Available in 12, 14, 16, and 18 oz. Price range: €299–€399.

Traditional Lace Sparring Gloves (laces) — the classic professional model. The lace closure provides a tighter, more personalized fit around the wrist. Popular with competitive boxers and enthusiasts of traditional craftsmanship. Available in 12, 14, and 16 oz. Price range: €299–€349.

Both models are made from the same top-quality leather with the same unique latex-foam padding. The only difference is the closure and the feel around the wrist.

Weight guide: which oz is right for you?

Cleto Reyes boxing gloves are available in 12 oz, 14 oz, 16 oz, and 18 oz (depending on the model). The right choice depends on your body weight and intended use:

12 oz - lighter boxers (up to ~65 kg), padwork, and technique training

14 oz - the most versatile option, suitable for most adults for sparring and training

16 oz - heavyweight boxers and intensive sparring; extra protection for you and your sparring partner

18 oz - only available in the Velcro Sparring line; for heavy sparring or at the trainer's request

Not sure? For sparring, always choose the higher weight — it provides better protection for both boxers.

Suitable for boxing, kickboxing, and thai boxing

Cleto Reyes boxing gloves are primarily designed for boxing and are used at the highest professional level. Thanks to their compact shape, light weight, and excellent wrist support they are also popular with kickboxing and thai boxing.

They are approved by all major boxing associations and are used in professional competitions worldwide. They are not suitable for MMA or grappling—for those, you need open-finger gloves .

The gloves are intended exclusively for adults. For children and young people, we recommend the youth boxing gloves in our range.

Care and lifespan of leather boxing gloves

Cleto Reyes boxing gloves are made of top-quality leather and will last through many intense training sessions with proper care .A few tips:

After every training session — let the gloves air out completely. Never put them straight in your bag. Use a deodorizer or place a towel inside to absorb moisture.

Leather care — regularly treat the leather with a good leather cream or leather grease to prevent drying out and cracking.

Do not wash — never put the gloves in the washing machine. Wipe the outside with a damp cloth.

Dry storage — store them in a dry, ventilated place, away from direct sunlight.

The latex-foam padding is naturally moisture-resistant, but the leather exterior does require regular care.

How do Cleto Reyes boxing gloves fit?

Cleto Reyes boxing gloves have a snug fit, that is designed (through the use of latex foam) to adapt to the fighter’s hand over time. They may feel tight at first, especially with handwraps. However, this means that after the “break-in” period, they provide a very good fit for narrow, normal, and wide hands alike.

They are known for their firm and even fairly hard padding. 

It is important to choose the right size (not too small), as Cleto Reyes boxing gloves do not offer much extra room, especially with long handwraps stevige en zelfs redelijk harde padding.

Het is belangrijk om de juiste maat (niet te klein) te kiezen, aangezien Cleto Reyes bokshandschoenen niet veel extra ruimte bieden, zeker niet met lange bandages

Collections

Latex-foam padding. Latex foam feels soft and is quite flexible, allowing it to adapt well to the shape of the hand.

Cleto Reyes uses latex-foam padding for all sparring gloves, allowing them to mold very well to the user's hands.

Many people mistakenly think that all Cleto Reyes boxing gloves have horsehair padding. Cleto Reyes uses horsehair exclusively in the professional competition boxing gloves of 8 oz and 10 oz.
