The Cleto Reyes Safetec Professional Fight Gloves represent the Mexican brand's answer to evolving professional contest standards. Developed with a new polyurethane foam technology, the Safetec is engineered to deliver the same consistent feel and hand protection as Cleto Reyes' traditional pro fight glove — but with a construction designed to meet contemporary sanctioning requirements. For fighters who train with Cleto Reyes and want the same glove in the ring, this is the natural choice.
Construction & Materials
The Safetec is built around a new polyurethane foam padding system, developed specifically to replicate the performance consistency of Cleto Reyes' classic horsehair pro fight gloves. The foam is engineered to maintain its shape and protective properties across rounds, resisting the compression that can reduce glove performance during a contest. Construction follows the same hand-crafted standards Cleto Reyes applies across their professional range, with the lace-up closure ensuring a tight, fight-legal fit. The exterior shell maintains the firm, compact profile that the brand is known for in professional boxing.
Who Is This For?
The Cleto Reyes Safetec is designed exclusively for professional and serious amateur fighters preparing for sanctioned competition. Available in 8oz for welterweight and below (105–147 lbs) and 10oz for super welter and above (154 lbs and up), the size options align directly with professional contest weight class requirements. If you compete at club, regional, or professional level and need a fight glove that meets sanctioning standards without sacrificing the quality Cleto Reyes is known for, the Safetec is built for that purpose. These are not training gloves — they are contest gloves.

What Are Pro Boxing Gloves?

These gloves are used in sanctioned bouts and are built to meet strict requirements around weight, construction and performance.

Pro Boxing Glove Weight
Professional boxing gloves are typically available in 8oz and 10oz weights, depending on the fighter’s division. Lighter weight classes usually compete in 8oz gloves, while heavier divisions use 10oz.
These lighter gloves increase speed and punching precision, but also require strong technique and conditioning due to reduced padding compared to training gloves. Many fighters train in heavier gloves before switching to fight-weight gloves during camp.
Closure and Fit
Pro boxing gloves use a lace-up closure to deliver a secure, locked-in fit. This ensures the wrist is stabilised during high-impact exchanges and allows for a consistent feel throughout a fight.
A proper fit is critical. Pro gloves should feel tight with hand wraps on, with no movement inside the glove. This alignment supports clean punching mechanics and reduces the risk of injury.
Material and Construction
High-end pro boxing gloves are made from premium leather, offering durability and a glove that moulds to your hand over time. Inside, layered foam padding balances impact absorption with feedback, allowing fighters to feel their shots land without excessive bulk.
Reinforced stitching and high-quality construction ensure the gloves perform under fight conditions and maintain their shape through training camps.
Training Like a Pro
Most professional fighters do not rely on a single pair of gloves. Heavier gloves are used for sparring and conditioning, while pro boxing gloves are used for pad work and fight preparation.
Training with pro gloves helps replicate fight conditions, improving timing, accuracy and confidence before stepping into the ring. If you are serious about boxing, incorporating pro-level equipment into your training makes a noticeable difference. For fighters prioritising hand speed and biomechanical alignment, Hit N Move boxing gloves offer a modern, speed-focused alternative.
