These Shock Wave gloves are perfect for Karate, Kung Fu, Tae Kwon Do, JKD, and other martial arts. With a relatively open palm and exposed fingers, these work very well for styles that include a lot of trapping or light grappling.
However, these gloves not intended for full-contact or MMA since they are not heavily padded. We carry a number of other gloves that would work better for more intense contact arts.
Very easy on and off with elastic Velcro closing. Please note some of the gloves currently in stock have a pair of red stripes on the wrist wrap (so they may not be completely black).

Lay your hand flat on top of a ruler or measuring tape. Measure across the four knuckles. It usually ends up being close to your t-shirt size, but mileage does vary. If you have a t-shirt size very different from the glove size, you might want to compromise a little (i.e., your "glove size" is Medium and "t-shirt size" is X-Large, you might want to go with a size Large glove).
