You will find lots of gloves are very similar as alot come from the same factory and are tweaked to make them look different, pumas gloves were very close to the bdm ones too

Doubt it, they're just a stock shape that's been copied.

Based on the old Puma Classic 5000 I think.

they haven't copied the boom booms or vice versa. Its a design commonly used. Probably most succesfully by puma with their classic range in 2005

A) IMO They are quite different in the smaller detail

B) There's a high possibility they were made by the same people, as at a guess, there are now 100 brands, and probably 10 soft goods makers (sure I'll be corrected)

It's certainly very common to see a smaller brand having the same softs as a bigger brand, and most of the manufacturers copy each other shamelessly anyway.
