If you box, kickbox or do a boot camp class and like pink, these Everlast gloves are worth a look.
I picked these up on Amazon for my lady friend. Everlast is the name you see in every boxing movie, so it has history. These are the Pro Style training gloves in 12 ounces, with pink vinyl padding, a mesh vent in the palm and a Velcro wrist strap. They are a lot cheaper than renting gloves, and you avoid the gross shared ones at the gym.

Build
The Everlast name sits on a gray vinyl panel, with pink vinyl padding all the way around. The thumb is tethered to the mitt with a little nylon strap.
Under the palm, there is breathable mesh, and you get a Velcro wrist cuff.
Padding and fit
The foam is really thick and dense. I could get my hand in, and you can see your fingers through the mesh, so air gets in and your hands breathe a little.
There is an elastic strap so you can really cinch them down. You cannot eat or dial a phone in them, but that is boxing gloves.
Why not go bare-knuckle?
If you have ever punched a heavy bag with a bare knuckle, it is like punching a potato sack full of rocks. It hurts. These save your knuckles from that beating.
They are a good fit for small hands, whether you are a woman or a guy.
Worth it?
At under 30 bucks, they are a lot cheaper than renting gloves or using the nasty ones a gym provides. Keep your own and be in your own nastiness.
They should last for plenty of boxing workouts.
