I bought these in hopes that it would feel more like actual boxing. Unfortunately, the holders (on the gloves) seemed to interfere with the WII controller = not as responsive as just using the controllers without the gloves. So, I like the idea. I just wish the gloves worked.

I usually like Everlast products, but it seems that you just can't make a good glove for the Wiimotes. Most of the other products have bad ratings so I tried these. First thing I noticed on Wii Boxing was that the hands were much farther apart on the screen, because I couldn't hold them so close together in real life. That translated to getting hit a lot more, and that's all it took for me to not want to use them again. That and I have big hands. Technically they fit me but they aren't comfortable. I knew I was taking a risk though buying something that's pretty much "One size fits most".

Okay, I realize no Wii glove will ever be perfect, but these are as good as it's gonna get.

Be prepared for a little prep time, at least for the first wear, because it takes a few minutes to get the controllers snapped in and get the gloves on. Once they're on, it takes a minute or two to figure out how they'll affect cursor movement and how to use the buttons. But all that becomes a piece of cake once you get used to it. I must admit, I haven't tried putting the controllers inside the mitts. I've only strapped them to the tops of the gloves, because that's what makes the most sense to me. I don't want to think about the controllers, I just want to feel the gloves. So I can't tell you what mitt use is like.

Now that I've tried these gloves, I'll never play Wii boxing without them. Having done genuine boxing, I can tell you this is still a lot less satisfying than the real thing. But man is it fun! The gloves add a lot to the experience and have helped me boost my form and accuracy.

If you're gonna get gloves, get these. Seriously.

I bought these gloves for my kids. They are having a blast with wii boxing. I love when they raise the gloves over their heads after a knock out. We also had people over and the adults had a blast as well. The fact that you can insert the remote and nunchuk on top of the glove or in the inner pocket allows us to play all games. The gloves absolutley enhance game play!

I dont know why some people give a bad review of this product!
Let me tell you that this fits well, looks very nice and give a lot of fun!
Maybe if you haven't use gloves before then you will think that this is unconfortable, but this its the way this stuff are and hey.. this is a one size fits all, so good luck!
Love it!

It is so funny to play box at wii with this pair of gloves, you can really feel the emotion and it becomes a great experience at the same time.

I tried using it yesterday in my cardio routine with a workout video for wii that I got and the wii remote doesn't fit well, it wasn't much fun using it. They fit strange.

If you have older generation wii controllers that have the wii motion plus extension, then they will not fit in these gloves. I planned to use these for one of my wii cardio boxing games but I found these gloves to be cumbersome and actually stopped my game to take them off. For whatever reason the sensors couldn't pick up my punches while wearing the gloves and because my controllers didn't fit into the slots it made the whole thing awkward. I would not recommend this gloves as to me they aren't worth it.

This game is incredibly fun and even better with the gloves! The gloves defintely get you into the mindset of the game and you can get more of a workout in turn.

A good purchase for any gamer and/or boxing fan!

I like the gloves, but the game has an option for 2 remotes and the gloves only give you an option for a remote & a nunchuck, which means you have to squeeze the other remote into it and then it doesn't have the same sensitivty to the sensor. But overall I like having the gloves they give you a little extra weight for a little more sweat.
