In our store, we are often asked about the difference between boxing gloves and kickboxing gloves.
Nowadays, there is little difference, and you can use all the boxing gloves from our store for both boxing and kickboxing. We will explain the small differences that do exist below.

The classic boxing glove
We sell various top models of classic boxing gloves, including those from the new Italian boxing brand Boxia Italy and the famous Cleto Reyes.
These are truly classic boxing gloves, as shown by the long, flat cuff. The Cleto Reyes boxing gloves are also roomier on the inside. This means that professional boxers can wear them even with heavily wrapped hands.
The Cleto Reyes boxing gloves come with a hefty price tag, but in return you get a truly exceptional pair of boxing gloves. They are made using the very highest-quality leather—genuinely top of the line!
The gloves are handmade in Mexico by proud craftsmen. The lining is water-repellent, keeping the gloves wonderfully fresh. The quality of the padding also remains perfect.
It is therefore no surprise that Cleto Reyes boxing gloves are worn during important boxing matches.

The different kickboxing gloves
There are major differences between the various brands and models. What we personally like is extra padding on the palm and wrist.
This provides extra comfort when sparren and during training. When you are catching kicks and punches, that little bit of extra padding feels really comfortable and also offers better protection for your vulnerable wrist area. The Twins BGN boxing glove excels in this area.
The King Pro boxing gloves are also great for training. Thanks to the extended wrist section, you get extra support and protection for your wrist.
With the King Pro kickboxing gloves, you are also guaranteed sturdy padding, a thumb protector, and a comfortable fit. There are even the Thor gloves. This is the latest model line of King Pro boxing gloves.
The biggest difference lies in the closure and the extra padding around the boxing gloves. It is a very comfortable glove, but it does come with a hefty price tag.
The various XPRT models are attractively priced. For example, the XPRT Top Gloves are made of leather and have padding around the wrist.
This provides a comfortable feel, and the long hook-and-loop closure keeps the glove perfectly in place. This model also features thick, comfortable padding, a thumb protector, and reinforced seams.
So if you are looking for the glove with the best value for money, we recommend the XPRT Top Gloves boxing gloves.
