@@JungWeezyBabay Their made in Japan stuff is super good, just stay away from the cheap stuff that is overpriced such as their cloth shin guards. If you want good shin guards of similar quality then get Combat Sports International MMA shin guards. They’re leather just like the Isami ones but also have a great neoprene sleeve that offers a bit of protection and snugness. Only $60 as well (You can get a cheaper poly version from Contender Fight Sports that will also be just as good, still has the same padding and neoprene)
Yup you’re correct. I think being overseas we don’t get the same level of marketing over here in the states but I like to see what’s out there than our standard winning Reyes grant sabas title ringside etc
The leather looks quality! Almost like the type of leather you’d see on a Mexican made glove. Interesting mold, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a glove with this type of shape.
Yeah the leather is very nice and unique, high quality for sure. The mold is definitely not like something else I’ve tried which is nice but takes some getting use to

They seem to be more suited for kickboxing the hand compartment looks loose which makes kicking and blocking kicks more practical compared to wearing traditional western boxing gloves. I'm sure Rizin also uses these gloves.
Can you say more about Isami in comparison to winning? If I don't care about a brand which one would you choose? I have Salvador and currently I was offered these gloves for 200bucks
@@damarhutagalung2184 what about bag work? I have some Mexican gloves, but sometimes I need more protection to provide some rest for my hands. Does it hold on a bag?
I’ve been waiting to pull the trigger on buying these since I first asked you about them over a month ago. Now I don’t think I’m gonna buy them 😅 thanks for the review.
Very close to Winning prices here in Japan. ¥2,400 difference. About $22 USD between these and Winning MS-600 gloves. I have Winning and Sabas gloves. How would you rate these compared to the Sabas Pro Series, Carlo? Thank you for the review.
Don't bother with those gloves they are made in Pakistan the Boxer model is made in Japan a good indication is most of their gloves below $200usd is made in Pakistan the ones above are made in Japan. They also have some gloves and pads that are made in Thailand. While winning makes everything they have in Japan although Isami has a greater variety of range in regards to gear this includes Karate Kickboxing Muay Thai MMA Boxing etc.
Definitely do it brother! We need American made gloves! I’d support you and spread the word. The problem with US gloves is that they are made in China or Pakistan.
@csquaredboxing Isami makes a great handwrap too, copied from Winning’s gauze like style. Wider but shorter than Winning’s, also softer and not as stabilizing.
@@nicksalvatore5717 not really it feels just fine. The angle is very subtle, it's honestly probably an improvement. Jason Neece at v1V1 was telling me that Winning also changed the padding they use about 2 years ago.
@@wingoreviewsboxingandmma3667how does Jason from 1v1 know they changed the padding? I know other people who know about Winning and haven’t mentioned anything about their padding changing. I’d like to know more
Finally I ordered ones. They have arrived today. The first impression is absolutely amazing! Thank you very much for your help in the decission making.
I have Winning wraps and I am looking at possibly purchasing the Isami wraps cause of the way they feel. Do any North American companies make a wrap with that rayon blend?
@@nxrcolepsy4895 i have the model you see in the video but 16oz in red, right now it's not available to buy, they are working on the new model which should be out late next year
Having been watching your videos recently. Seems these are the only gloves you rated 5 out of 5 in terms of performance. You think these are good for Muay Thai too? Can’t resist ordering them 🤣
@@kortex628 They are very comfortable to wear. Build quality is top notch. Give very good feedback but at the same time do not hurt your knuckles. The only downside I find is they are a little too big compared to the Winnings as I prefer tighter fit. Same as the Winnings they don't give much wrist support.
Finally! Someone actually reviewed their gloves! Thank you for this!
No prob
Another great review!! Wow I had no idea Isami made Boxing Gloves. I've used their Shin Guards and MMA Gloves for years though.
Thanks
How are their shin guards? I saw that the straps go over the front of the shin guards, does that get in the way?

Cool review, they’ve been in the game for a minute now, I believe they also used to do the old K1 boxing gloves as well

Agreed
Lookin to get a pair of Isami’s soon! I got a custom-made BJJ gi
from them and it’s amazing... and customer service is pretty unparalleled.
Nice!
Nice video as always. Man that was a big body protector your friend had, didn't realize they came that padded.
looks like there's a second one underneath
Thanks man
That’s for Francis Ngannou

Isami is a gold mine I’m gonna check Japanese UA-cam to see if there is any Japanese reviews
🥊👍🏼

I'm sure Rizin also uses these gloves.
Yes I can definitely see that, rizin is made by the same manufacturer I believe
The thumb may be bigger because usually these globes are used for kickboxing and K-1 in Japan so they are made differently then straight boxing gloves
Ah got it
Yep those gloves definitely look like they are made to catch kicks.
Keep grinding
Always
Been using Winning and Isami since 2009
Im choosing Isami all the way in term of quality and pricing
Nice

Better quality for sure and better padding, not as comfortable as pro series

For sure
@csquaredboxing Isami makes a great handwrap too, copied from Winning’s gauze like style. Wider but shorter than Winning’s, also softer and not as stabilizing.
I’ll check them out
The grip bars on Winning gloves are at an angle now too

Thanks, I’d say these

@@luiscarril4445 How are the gloves 1 year later?
Thank you 🥊
I have Winning wraps and I am looking at possibly purchasing the Isami wraps cause of the way they feel. Do any North American companies make a wrap with that rayon blend?
Not too sure, I’ll have to do some research
Dang, that's a premium price.
I know
First time seeing that brand🥊. What would you prefer winning or this?
Do they have lace up too?
Still winning but the price point on these are better
Is the hand compartment on these fairly snug like winning, and rival?
No these are a tad more roomy, to be safer blocking kicks apparently
Primo gloves or these?
I thought Isami had their gloves made by the Thaismai factory, but good to know they make them in Japan.
For sure
Hi Carlo! would you recommend ISAMI Ring Series or Fighting Road? (both in the sub 9k Yen range) Thx!
Have you tried Bryant Boxing gloves? Heard great things about them
Not yet hopefully soon have heard great things as well
hi^^ how is this glove compare winning! is it weight actuall weight?16oz is 16oz? and how do you think for sparring this and powerlock!
I weigh the gloves in the video and similar leather to winning but different feel
I bought it, but his hand is very uncomfortable on the place of his thumb
Sorry to hear that
@@csquaredboxing 😂As your video said comfort is 3
@@鼎甫 How is it now? Has it broken in at all?
Do you like the glove regardless
@@nicksalvatore5717 No, it is very durable. And the workmanship is very good.
But the design of its thumb is very bad. I dont like this thumb
Does the thumb feel better after being broken in? I’m concerned about the thumb.
I have these gloves in 16oz (i have big hands) and the thumb for me is very comfortable, if you have any questions about the gloves feel free to ask 🥊
@@xhonatanblini awesome, would u say these gloves are better as sparring gloves?

Depends on if you have normal or wide feet what’s your budget etc
@@csquaredboxing hii can you recommend for wide feet? thnx
I feel like winning is the king. Next is Reyes and 3rd is grant. These gloves seem like a good competitor
That’s the general concensus but changing with new manufacturers
Hey man wanted to ask if you would recommend the fighting fury gloves or superior gloves more? I want to get one of those in velcro.
That’s a hard one, id say superior
Can you do a whole YOKKAO set review please it would really help me
Maybe in the future
