The outer is full grain natural leather hide - the same grade Sting uses on its approved competition gloves - chosen to move with the hand through thousands of hours of rounds without cracking. Underneath, the Hi-Flow mould construction dissipates strike energy across the whole glove so your partner takes less of each shot and your hands take less of the return.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Velcro version keeps everything that makes the Viper X a sparring glove - the extra-long wrist cuff, the anatomically designed square-shouldered mould, the Comfort 3D PowerX lining - and swaps the laces for a wide hook-and-loop closure you can pull tight one-handed. In and out between rounds, no partner needed, and enough cuff length that the wrist still sits locked and straight under a punch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho It Suits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone who spars regularly at a gym and wants a proper leather sparring glove they can manage themselves - which is most people.

Lace gives a tighter, more uniform wrist lock for fight camp - if you have someone to lace you. Same leather, same mould, same core; the closure is the only difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the wrist support really enough for hard sparring?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes - the extra-long cuff is the same length as the lace version, so with the strap pulled firm the wrist sits straight and supported. It's the reason Sting builds the cuff long rather than relying on the strap alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use them on the bag?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou can, but a sparring glove's padding is tuned to protect a partner, not to take heavy bag punishment every day. Keep the Viper X for sparring and use a training glove on the bag - it will last years longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I care for leather gloves?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePull the strap open and let them air dry after every session - never leave them closed in a bag. Wipe the leather with a damp cloth, use a glove deodoriser for the liner, and condition the leather occasionally. Keep white leather out of direct sun and hot cars, and wipe scuffs promptly before they set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 MONTHS (180 DAYS) - Sting manufacturer's warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSting Sports products carry a 180-day manufacturing warranty from the date of invoice, covering the structural integrity of the product - major production faults and damage present before delivery - when used for its intended purpose with reasonable care.
