is the padding good. And does it protect the knuckles?

The gel padding is pretty good. Can be a little abrasive but other than that, it protects the knuckles well.

They are decent for light bag work. If you keep control and form they will be fine. Nice medium between protection and damaging for calcification. The lower knuckles will be exposed.

I use them under my gloves instead of traditional wraps so padding works well. The stitching isn't the best.

I would say yes. Way better than using true boxing gloves and they still give you protection while working out.

They have very good padding however they are not hardcore gloves for lifting heavy weights all time so if you are not heavy duty lifter they protect you against callous . Overall awesome gloves.

The 12 oz. would be the way to go. Not only because of having larger hands, but also as a beginner, I feel it will protect your knuckles better than lesser oz. gloves. Hope this helps.

I like the neoprene gloves that completely cover your hands better for a lot of bag work. I use these on the bag but we don't use the bags all the time in our class. I have to hit gently after too much bag work. They are enough support, I just find after too much bag work my knuckles get a little sore. Also, if you have large hands, order up in size. Not sure if this helps you any...:)

Sorry, no bump protection. It's light, very comfy,does not impede the wrist too much. It can immobilize the thumb, slightly brace your wrist, and even remind you to take it easy, but it does not protect against bumps.

yes, they have a good amount of grip for the price you are getting them. i would recommend these gloves if you're looking for a cheaper price and they will last if you take care of them.

It has a soft splint, like a hard foam. It will protect you from twisting and spraining your wrist but is not strong enough to prevent collision damage like the hard shell on the palm

Yes i have been i several fights while wearing them. They dont interfere with grappling. They protect your hands from teeth and other sharp things. They transfet alot of energy into the punch as well.

Padding is on the knuckle side. Yes, I sometimes use them as weight lifting gloves.

Well, each of my wrists is 6" around and where the knuckles are, they are about 7.5" around. Seems like a firm fit around the knuckle region, with room to spare for the arm. I'm referring to size sm/med, for left or right hands/arms.

The grippiness is good. It has a diamond texture on the sides which does not obscure the color but does help you hold on to the phone. I'd say the protection is probably medium. It will protect against scratches and dirt. The corner protection is decent and if the phone falls a short distance it will cushion it some, but if you need really high protection you will want a more heavy-duty case.

The padding is pretty good. If you can get the laptop to stay secure. The straps don't work all that well, so my laptop was just floating around in there, so I returned it.

Yeah....it's chain mail like the knights of olde used to wear. I have sliced my hand, and gouged my hand, and this glove catches it. No damage to the wearer.

Regular padding, the ones your asking about are the training gloves, those have less protection on the wrist, but more padding on the knuckle area. Those gloves are for bag and pad work outs.

Good protection for mechanic, work, hand tools, etc. Would protect on first couple punches but would quickly breakdown if used on say a heavy bag for training or repeatedly.

Nope your knuckles will get cut and bleed make sure you use tape on your knuckles or buy the wraps. Everlast sells them! :)
