Effective but not ideal for all hands

My wife and I started Muay Thai a few months ago. We bought several pairs of these capes. Did the job very well. However, I have to say that they are not ideal for me. I now have bandages from Pro Impact, Meister and Fairtex. Fairtex Wraps are my favorite, Master is second and Pro Impact is last. This is mainly because both Meister and Fairtex are thinner and more elastic. Although this may not be a problem for everyone. I don't have the biggest hands in the world, but I do have big square palms that take up a lot of room in my gloves. Because of this, the Pro Impact is a little tight and bulky, which causes discomfort in my fingers after wearing 12-ounce gloves for a while. Meister and Fairtex are more comfortable for me because they don't create as much volume with gloves on, but still feel secure. Fairtex is my favorite because they aren't as wide which makes them more comfortable when running sausage wraps between my fingers. However, Fairtex cloths are also by far the most expensive. The reason I only deducted one star despite these issues is because it doesn't apply to my wife. Her arms are almost as long as mine but much thinner, and she prefers Pro Impact Wraps to others. She doesn't think they restrict movement in the gloves like I do. The lack of stretch helps secure them better, and the added thickness provides extra cushioning for the ankles. In other words, she likes them for the same reasons I do. Pros: They're affordable and break in well after a few workouts and washes. some people to fix them. They are thick so they provide a good layer of padding on the knuckles. Cons: They take multiple workouts and washes to break them in. Lack of stretch can cause them to feel stiff. They are thick so they can be bulky in your gloves if you have big hands.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
