This "20 YEAR ORIGINAL" glove replicates the very first design and construction of the Rival RS1 Pro Sparring Glove. Initially released in 2003, the RS1�s quickly made their mark on the boxing industry, while laying the foundation for Rival�s success. Not only did these stunning gloves offer comfort, protection, durability and professional performance all in one, they also introduced Rival�s uniquely innovative Angled Lace Track System to the world. This dynamic X-shaped lacing system with a 15� angled lace track has revolutionized the way boxing gloves are designed, as well as providing the best fit and stability in a �lace-up� glove. Designed with the professional in mind, and made of the highest quality full grain leather, the RS1�s truly are the pinnacle of all sparring gloves. And still, 20 years later, they remain unchanged and the choice of the pros everywhere!
