Gloves and goza

[rawnshah]

I got both a new pair of light combat gloves and new targets on the same day. The gloves are from Revival.us, a chivalry sports store with lots of equipment for Ren-Fair types. The gloves are light, kevlar reinforced with a hard shell over the knuckles, and padding for every finger. However, even the large size for me seems to be a little small for my hand. It fits mostly well and protects the wrist and forearms as well, but covers about 95% of my palm, making it a little annoying when it chafes against the wrist. Still, it's leather and it'll stretch a little.
I can't wait for a sparring match to try it out. Still to order are the headgear and perhaps the light body armor.

The goza from Nihonzashi is also here and it looks in good order, although the box got a little crumpled. We'll have to set up a cutting day and chop em up.
