I bought a large amount of respect jigsaw mats, heavy bags and gloves from mark for my gym. It's cheap but good quality. If you are looking for some cheap heavy bags he does some made of rip stop which I have found to be very hard wearing. Well worth a look if you can't afford the premium Thai brands. Mark is a nice guy and very passionate about his brand. His kids boxing gloves are very good value and I haven't had one complaint from the 20 or so pairs I have got for my juniors.

His site is www.respectsportltd.co.uk the stuff pictured above looks like his new range which I haven't tried yet. In my opinion his old stuff isn't as good as premium Thai made stuff but very good value for those who can't afford twins, fairtex etc

he got some new thai stock in a few months ago,its a lot better than his old thai stock,its only recently that he started to look around at the quality of thai equipment and decided he could get good equipment to match whats out there,he normally supplies karate and boxing stuff,hope gyms pick up on his gear.

i think is the correct link, they use actinic catalog e-commerce nice little out of the box solution that is cheap as chips
Neil Gribbon

I would ring mark direct for a trade price, his trade price is on average 30% cheaper than the website prices. No minimum order and he is a good guy to deal with.
I have only used his old stock which was very good value for money £40 for a pair of heavy duty leather thai pads which lasted longer than the FBT pads I had which were £55 a pair. His gloves are good too.

if you are local to manchester or visiting for fights a trip to Marks shop is highly recommended, its unique to say the least. He is a karate instructor and has a gym upstairs from the shop. He serves behind the counter wearing his karate suit!!! The shop is tiny and filled from floor to ceiling with martial arts equipment. The last time I was there for some fights mark opened up the shop for us at 10pm on a sunday night to collect some equipment. He even let us go and try the thai pads out in his gym before we bought them!! You will struggle to get that kind of service anywhere else!!!

fuckin hell john, the cheeky cunts have even stolen fightshop/sandee photos and put them on their site as respect items, ROBBING FUCKING CUNTS
Johnny T's Gym
Posted: 2012-07-06 12:28:29
cant comment not been on there website,its a 2 minute walk to the shop for me,at the end of the day its thai stuff on offer,people will always copy others,there is a guy near us selling top brands fairtex twins and others that are not original but just as good,its the way of the world,myself personally if i can sell gear to my students cheaper thats of good quality then i will ,as we all no thai equipment is getting more expensive,so we look for a cheaper version.

have to be honest with you sandy ,your prices even thou they are slightly lower than the big retailers, cannot touch marks equipment,quite a lot of the smaller gyms have started to use marks gear,as its cheap for the customers and doesn,t put them of training as its to expensive when starting up.
Darren EFC

I looked on the website at his belly pads, £66 is that right? thats not cheap lol
Sandy Holt
Posted: 2012-07-08 20:20:04
soz billy big uns :-(


and Cheers JT and yes your right re: RESPECT Equip: i used some about 5 years ago and to be fair it wasnt too bad and yes very cheap
and thanks for noticing re: my prices :-)

But 100% Sandee and Chokdee are not the same and esp: the bag gloves too, Nowt like them
look again at the design!
you defo need go specsavers if you think they look the same or are copied No Way
But Bag gloves are bag gloves and have to look similar at first glance !



Sandy Holt
Posted: 2012-07-08 20:21:35

chalky
Posted: 2012-07-10 07:01:19
If the thumbs are pointing different ways,They will be made especially for people from Blackburn ha ha ha... and you get a free banjo on purchase. (joke!)

Anyway,It looks decent enough stuff the "respect" gear and it is expensive for stuff these days,Sandee,twins,raja..... Thaismai were the first gloves i got ha ha
If your lucky you can get a bargain on ebay for stuff,i have several times.

Shorts are CHEAPER to get made/ordered online customised from Thailand and top quality than what you pay here!
Johnny T's Gym
Posted: 2012-07-10 09:24:55
wondered why they sell well in my blackburn gym, maybe the floppy thumb is a sign of things happening in sandys trouser department,heard there is some cheap bag gloves in burnley,six fingers and two thumbs,just ask dave from hakuda he is selling them

Posted: 2012-07-12 08:38:38
i put this on not to piss anyone of just to advertise for a guy who runs a martail arts shop but has no thai contacts,students in the gym where not happy at the prices they were paying for equipment,sandee is all i have really ever used in my gym and on my shows,the only way around this is something similiar but cheaper,fair enough its a copy,but it does the job for me and my students, obviously it wont be your sandee,twins,king standard,why would i try to upset anyone when i advertise fightshop sandee,all over the gym,my fight banners at the weigh and at our shows as well,the fighters nearly everyone of them wear them,sandee gear is tops,but not everyone in my gym can afford it,hope that clears things up .
Liam R
Posted: 2012-07-12 13:33:13
i usually get my stuff thru fightshop but i cant get hold of Dazm the respect gear is quality we are kitting out of gyms with it thank you for the link Jonny much appreciated
chalky
Posted: 2012-07-12 16:15:47
Johnny,Good on you for putting it up,Stuff is expensive these days,So a cheaper but good quality line of equip is always good to use.Especially for anybody just starting up training or a gym.
The more expensive makesare just that! Expensive.
dunny
Posted: 2012-07-12 18:14:25
The thing is though that the quality is nowhere near as good. Make sure you get a guarentee for when it all falls apart so that you can get your money back. Add to that that half the stuff is in fact more expensive than Sandee and its not even made of leather, but you can make your own minds up.

Liam, you can still order through us in the office like you did before Daz worked for us. Same goes for anyone else. 01204 659719 or info@fightshop.com in case anyone has lost the details

hey nasty pants,never in any way did i slag any sandee gear of,so you dont do it to them,like i said sandee is the dogs bollocks and we will continue to advertise it ,keep it on our programmes,and use your gloves at our shows,but when someone cant afford your stuff i will offer them respects gear,i have only ever asked from you guys ,4 sets of gloves for our show nothing else,other gyms get fighters sent to thailand to train for free,we advertise for you guys for nowt,any more slagging of fatty and i will come to your shop and take all them cream cakes away from you as punishment lol,anyway any news on that job

dunny
Posted: 2012-07-13 14:04:12
john, you're just jealous that im better looking than you, you bald bastard. anyway, im not slagging any gear off, everything i have said is 100% fact and you know it, i just dont want people spending several hundreds, if not thousands of hard earned pounds, and getting stuck with poor quality equipment. everyone knows that if theres a problem with any sandee equipment, all you have to do is give me a bell and its sorted. will these guys do the same? if so then fine, i havn't said they wont, i just said to make sure you agree it with them.

also seeing as you brought it up publicly, since we (Sport Traders Ltd) have owned Fightshop, you have been treated better than most, all that other stuff was not us, it was the old company (C2 Trading Ltd), but at the end of the day it went on to help produce a world champion, that also fights on your shows. Fightshop throughout time has put the money back into the sport that lets you earn a living, will this guy? sometimes it pays to not be short sighted, thats all im saying.

like you said only time will tell if it can hold out like other brands,anyway change liams kickpbags as sandee have been unable to stand up to his kicking powers,maybe lend him one of ours till you do,respect its the future,even man city advertise it ,come on reeeeeeeespect say it loud say it proud reeeeeeeeespect,dunny stop taking this serious if its shit people will findout,but up to now it does me when its needed,you cant beat sandee its good stuff,as are other makes,its a bit like shopping in primark when you cant afford boss,as you should no.
