No problem glad you like them as much as I do 🙌🏼🙏🏼

I will take a look 👍🏼

The elite 2 I will get and score they may score slightly higher than my original elite boots I’m a bit more in your face stylewise than the elites give me Fair comment though 🙌🏼

I can tell you have a solid connection with your body because yes, you would be slightly slower with the thicker cushioned sole. Not saying that it would be too noticeable, but boxing shoes are typically thin with a flat sole to better connect you to the ground. They are made in assumption that you’d be training in the ring, minimal cushioning then doesn’t cause any issues for your joints, provided you are on the canvas. Realistically for most of us, we train often on harder surfaces. A slightly more cushioned sole would be ideal for longevity with the trade off being a very very slight decrease in quickness. Say you throw a punch, your muscles will coordinate together in a process. You will generate force, as the speed of the punch increases your muscles will begin to relax, upon impact you will then tense your muscles (creating the snap), before quickly relaxing again. In a combination you simply generate greater force at the start, utilizing one generation for multiple moves. It makes one look fluid in the ring. All of us are doing this process to some degree, it’s so quick and many of us have done it for so long that it’s subconsciously apart of our muscle memory. That’s the result you get through drilling these motions endlessly. Anyway, with the very cushioned sole you lose alittle bit of speed with that first generation of force. It likely doesn’t affect you much at all and is A-Okay if it means a more comfortable training session. That’s the trade off here and I say wear the shoes that feel the best, you’ll end up better that way in the end. Being comfortable leads to being more relaxed, which then allows you to train longer and put in more reps. And repetition is the key to developing all skill.

@@nicholaskizer8298 perfect description of what i was going through, you landed it on the head it was an amazing explanation, and everything you said was correct and I decided to go with a flat surface boxing shoe but only for gym training

Please see my comfort scores on the Fit2box cards www.fit2boxchannel.com/boots-1

Yes I did the same and fed back to FLY , Great comment 🙌🏼

I think they have made me younger 😅🙌🏼

Lonsdale and adidas box hog are great starter boots that don’t break the bank

@@Fit2Box thank you so much 🙏

Go size up

Yes they are 👍🏼

@@Fit2Box thanks

Size 14 you may have to get custom size try maybe top boxer or adams they may do that size A guy at our gym has to resort to boxing like basket ball shoes as bigger sizes more readily available

Huge FLAW about fly boots is they don’t have a loop in back to pull to get your damn foot in the boot. I stopped wearing them and opted for Nike tawa because i was spending 7-10 minutes trying to get the flies on.

@@jockolacko8181 I typically loosen the laces and the velcro strap when I take them off so I never struggle to put them back on personally. Do you try to slide them on like sneakers that you don’t ever really untie?

Which version of their boots as I haven’t found that 🤔

@@Fit2Box my v-trainer 2.0. I've slipped a couple times already during my spars and just bag work on foam floor mats. They have no rubber at all besides the bottom foam. I switched to a pair of superares and they are tremendously more gripping because of the rubber on the toe area.

@@tackywacky99 what material is your ring canvas

@@Fit2Box kind of like a rough mesh fabric. What material are rings usually made out of? Its springy and kinda feels like most boxing rings I've been in

You have to be VERY careful but yes I agree not the best design for durability

Not yet no

The sole of the shoe is what provides ankle support. Example, basketball high tops don't do anything for ankle support. The wider flat sole of basketball shoes keeps your ankle in position vs a running shoe with a narrow sole. In fact, most basketball shoes are now low or 3/4 top as a high upper boot does not stop an ankle from rolling. Boxing shoes are above ankle and a lot of that has to do with being truly "laced" into the shoe and "grounded" into the sole. So that's what probably made you feel like you had ankle support...it was the sole and being laced into to the boot.
