Cleto Reyes stands for one thing: classic Mexican boxing. The boxing gloves are handcrafted in Mexico from premium leather and are renowned for their direct punching feel and compact construction. The lace-up model in yellow is a competition glove, with a snug fit, even pressure distribution and a fit that no hook-and-loop fastening can replicate. For boxers who rely on precision and tradition.
Who are the Cleto Reyes lace-up gloves suitable for?
Lace-up gloves are primarily designed for competition and high-intensity sparring. They fit tighter and more evenly than hook-and-loop models and are therefore preferred by many professionals and ambitious amateurs. The downside: you need someone to help you lace them up. For everyday training on the punching bag or on the focus mitts, hook-and-loop models are more practical; for the ring and serious sparring, lace-up boxing gloves are the more precise choice. Suitable for men and women who demand competition equipment at the highest level.

Frequently asked questions about the Cleto Reyes lace-up gloves
Are Cleto Reyes boxing gloves also suitable for women?
Yes. Boxing gloves for women in smaller oz sizes (10 oz and 12 oz) are the right starting point for most female athletes. The ergonomic fit of the Cleto Reyes gloves works for both genders, provided the right size is chosen.
What is the advantage of lace-up gloves over hook-and-loop?
Lace-up gloves fit tighter and more evenly than hook-and-loop models. The lacing can be individually adjusted and distributes pressure more evenly across the wrist. This makes them the better choice in competition; for everyday training, hook-and-loop models are more practical, as you can put them on and take them off on your own.
Which martial arts are Cleto Reyes boxing gloves suitable for?
Cleto Reyes boxing gloves are primarily designed for classic boxing, competition, sparring, focus mitts and punching bag. For kickboxing they are also usable. For MMA or Muay Thai with clinch work, more specific models are better suited.
