Ryan ~
In my opinion, it's a tossup between two brands Cleto Reyes and Grant, both of these gloves are handmade in Mexico, both are made with "head leather". Reyes has been around a lot longer than Grant, so I'd have to give the nod to them but both gloves are equally impressive. They are "punchers gloves" meaning the padding is distributed the whole length of the glove instead of concentrating most of the padding in the knuckle area.
Winning Gloves are made in Japan and seem to be the choice of fighters that have hand problems, most of the padding in these gloves are concentrated in the knuckle area 6 layers of padding instead of 4 like Reyes and Grant. These gloves have been compared to "Pillows" according to trainer Freddie Roach.
It's all a matter of personal preference if you like to make your opponent feel your punches go with Reyes or Grant, if you want to protect your hands with extra padding go with Winning. All are high quality gloves. Tuf -Wear makes a decent glove too, stay away from Everlast they fall apart way too easy.
Good luck Ryan, I hope you find a glove that you like. Ringside.com, Grant Boxing.com, Winning USA.com should point you in the right direction.

Reyes all the way
i consider Grant high quality gloves , but still pillow gloves , not as much as Winning gloves that's for sure , but still gloves that are better suited for defensive fighters not for punchers.
1- Reyes P4P
2-Grant
3-Everlast ( good , but not as high quality as the above)
Winning gloves are P4P , #1 pillow gloves

Twins.
They are made in Thailand for the Muay Thia Fighters.
They last a long time, my Twins gloves have lasted for a LONG time compared to others that ripped and cracked after 3 months of usage.
