anything the experts here would recommend, sick of putting on the club ones that are dripping in someone else's sweat, want something leather, that doesn't move, probably with cheek protection

I got a green hill one, wear it for sparring and bouts think it was about £40 couple of years ago.
Suede on the inside so it soft and doesnt move around when get caught. Soaks up the sweat and have to dry it out after every session or your putting a soggy head guard back on.

the Cleto Reyes one with the bar that covers your nose, protects from breakages looks like a good one. Seen a few fighters using it in sparring footage.

RDX do some good, cheap and reliable boxing gear on eBay. I've got a headguard, pads and 16oz gloves from there for about 80 quid all together
