This is a review of the Liberlupus MMA Gloves.
Martial arts are about controlled violence. To be able to control violence, one must learn how to do so in a safe environment, and with proper instructions and equipment. I have trained in several dojos, gyms, and training centers over my years of martial arts experience, and though the quality of the classes and the teaching fluctuated quite a bit, my equipment quality never did, which is why I never got injured, and I could dive into the martial art without fear or hesitation.
However, I have seen many people get injured. Broken fingers, wrists, knuckles, and more are common in this hobby, and that is exactly why I always chose good equipment, and why I am vigorous and honest when rating martial arts apparel. It is practitioners’ health and ability to train which depends on the quality of the equipment, so I do not tolerate any slacking in quality, which makes me an unbiased reviewer.
I found the Liberlupus MMA Gloves to be fantastic. It is one of the best MMA gloves I have tried so far in its price category, and it was a real joy to train with them.
In this review, I will discuss these gloves in more detail, to give the reader more insight into the quality of this product, and its usage. If you are interested in looking into a great pair of martial arts gloves, read on!
Overview
Liberlupus MMA Gloves
The Liberlupus MMA Gloves for Men & Women are made of durable faux leather and polyurethane. These sparring gloves feature 10 mm EVA padding for effective shock absorption. The cross-cut design enhances wrist flexibility and grip. Ideal for various martial arts activities.
Pros
- Fantastic aesthetic

- Breathable
- Great ratio of padding
Cons
- Not many size options, only one color option
The Liberlupus MMA Gloves are, as its name suggests, a pair of mixed martial arts gloves, which makes it great for practicing a number of different martial arts. MMA gloves are hybrid gloves, which means that some boxing-glove-like padding is combined with the freedom of movement that a wrestling glove has. This means striking, wrestling, grappling, clinching, throwing, etc. are all in the game for a glove-like this one.
These Liberlupus gloves are balanced and of high-quality, and one of the things which make them stand out from the crowd is their awesome design. Overall, it is a great pair of MMA gloves. Not the best in the market, but you get a lot of value for money, and for anyone from beginner to intermediate, even low-advanced levels can easily get great training out of using this product.
Great Materials
The Liberlupus MMA Gloves are made of PU synthetic leather and EVA foam, which are both really durable and practical materials to make gloves out of. Aside from a great feel and texture, these materials also provide durability for the product and safety for your hands.
It is important to always buy products of high quality in martial arts, especially when it comes to gloves. Hurting yourself or your opponent is easily possible, but it doesn’t happen as easily with products as well made as this one. Aside from that, you won’t have to change it every now and then or buy a new one soon, since the durability of the materials it is made of will allow you to use it for a long time.
Awesome Design
The design might not be the most important part of a pair of combat gloves. However, training with gloves you don’t think looks good on your hands or just doesn’t fit your personality can be quite disheartening. The Liberlupus MMA Gloves have a simple, but great-looking black and gray aesthetic, with a wolf head shape on the back of the hand.
Putting on horrible-looking gloves before every training is demotivating, but wearing these gloves will make you feel like a million bucks when you walk into the gym. It gives you confidence and a love for what you do, which are both very important aspects of training any martial art.
Breathable Palm Area
Many gloves nowadays have little holes or mesh-like material on the palm area, which is placed there in order to help combat sweating mostly, however, on these gloves, the palm part is completely empty. This makes these gloves amazing for grappling since the freedom of the hand is increased greatly, which allows one to successfully perform throws, blocks, takedowns, etc.
This has an implication, not many people think about, and that is the wearing down of the gloves. Sweating into gloves makes the inner part soggy and wet, which can help prematurely damage the product, resulting in the need for a quick substitution. With this palm area, you are in no need of drying the inside of your gloves, since there isn’t an inside where you could put your palm in for the first place.
This results in better durability, more efficient execution of techniques, and also a lot less money spent on buying new gloves every once in a while due to deterioration.
Our Verdict
The Liberlupus MMA Gloves are one of the best gloves I have personally reviewed. It was built with care and is surprisingly durable for a product in its range. The materials used to make it are all high-quality as well.
One of the most important drawbacks of these gloves is that there aren’t many sizes to choose from, and there are no colors to choose from either, at least as of now.
Aside from that, it is a great pair of gloves, which will surely accompany you along with your martial arts journey hopefully for decades.
If you are looking for a pair of gloves that are of high quality, the Liberlupus is one of your best bets. It is also amazing when it comes to value for money. It is an Amazon’s Choice product, and has relatively low shipping and price, even though the product itself is of high quality.
If you are interested in buying an MMA glove in the near future and have trouble figuring out which ones you want to buy exactly, you should regard it as one of your top priorities to get one that is of high-quality, and that is what the Liberlupus delivers.
