Boxing gloves come in a variety of sizes from 2 oz to 18 oz, where oz or ounce indicates the weight and amount of padding in the glove. The fit to the hand can also vary depending on the model and manufacturer. Below is an overview of recommended sizes for different ages and training styles.
- Before buying gloves, always consult your trainer about which model and size is most suitable for your training!
- All leather boxing gloves will mold to your hand over time, so choose a model that fits well from the start and isn't too loose.
- Many people recommend using boxing wraps or inner gloves to avoid hand injuries.
- For intensive training, about 4-5 times a week, it is recommended to have two pairs of gloves – e.g. one pair for bag training and one for sparring. To avoid unpleasant odors, please use “No Stink” products and take the gloves out of the bag after each session.
Types of boxing gloves
- Bag gloves: Designed for bag training and training with mitts, they are less padded than sparring gloves.
- Sparring gloves: Well padded to protect both you and your partner during sparring.
- All-round or training gloves: A versatile glove for both beginners and all-round training.
Fastening: Laces or Velcro?
Gloves with laces provide a better fit but require assistance to put on. Velcro gloves are easier to handle by yourself and are common in training. Competitions often use laces for extra stability.
Material: real leather or faux leather?
Real leather is more durable and long-lasting, perfect for regular training, while faux leather is a budget-friendly option that's great for beginners.
Fit and feel
The gloves should fit comfortably, even with your hands wrapped. The fingertips should reach the top of the glove, and it should feel natural to tie your hand.
Three tips for choosing the right one:
- Ask your trainer for advice.
Try the gloves on with your hands wrapped for the correct fit. - If you are training for exercise rather than competition, choose all-purpose gloves.
- By following these tips, you can find gloves that suit your needs and your training level!
Frequently asked questions
Are hand wraps necessary?
Yes, hand wraps protect hands and wrists and are a simple investment to prevent injuries.
Does the brand mean anything?
The brand can affect both quality and durability. Well-known brands often use better materials and construction, which can be an advantage if you exercise regularly.
Why do prices vary?
The material, padding and brand of the gloves affect the price. Genuine leather is more expensive but also more durable, which can be worth the investment for the serious practitioner.
Glove care
To keep your gloves in good condition and free from odor, it is important to:
- Dry them thoroughly after exercise.
- Use moisture-absorbing inserts.
- Store them in an airy place to prevent the leather from cracking and to keep the inside fresher for longer.
With these tips, you can more easily find the gloves that suit you and your training style best, and through proper care you can extend their lifespan.
