Good Headgear for Boxing?
I've just started to spar and I would like to purchase my own headgear. Does anyone have any recommendations for a brand / model of headgear? I am thinking about getting the TWINS HGL-3 but can't find any reviews. Does anyone use that model? I have an office job so I need something that will give me ample protection.

I have little experience with headgear but this is my thing: everything in life is not about trying to find something that is the best because other chances are all competitors in any given market are just as good. Rather than looking for something on the basis of reviews look for something that fits your head and gives you amply amount of comfort yet protection. Chances are the Twins HGL-3 offers the same protection to a Title and Everlast full face headgear.

my advice is to get a stackhat and a pistol which is really just a roundabout way for me to say "hello guvner, nice to see you here" box on, sister.

87/1040D "Stackhat" protective sports helmet & box, plastic/metal/cardboard box, designed by PA Technology made by Rosebank Products Pty Ltd, Victoria, Australia, 1987 - Powerhouse Museum Collection

Interesting.

My weapons of choice, depending on the situation:





But for headgear, this might be helpful:

The Best Headgear Ever.... - Boxing Forum

They recommend this brand:

Winning Products

Although others have suggested this one:

Fightear.com - Pound for pound the world's best headgear

I don't know you so I'm not sure you realize that you come across as a self-important, pompous peasant. But thanks for your input!
