Boxing gloves with laces

Yes.

Although there are now modern systems with Velcro that come close to a lace-up closure, a traditional lace-up closure remains the best way to securely fasten and tighten a boxing glove.

Lace-up boxing gloves are usually fastened with a single lace that crosses both sides. This lace is then pulled tight so the gloves fit snugly.

The end of the laces is then tied around the wrist section of the lace-up boxing glove. Lace-up boxing gloves are otherwise usually almost identical to gloves with an (easier) Velcro closure. 

Advantages of lace-up boxing gloves:

• Snug, secure, and comfortable fit around the wrist
• Usually padded wrists for increased comfort
• The cuff around the wrists feels more streamlined and less bulky
• No risk of scratches from Velcro for opponents

Disadvantages of lace-up boxing gloves:

• Need assistance from another person to tie
• Slower to put on and take off, so not ideal for shorter training sessions
• Ends of laces can cut opponents

Feather-Lite simply involves two principles:

1. Maximum performance and protection
2. The lightest possible materials

Rival Boxing Gear strives to use the principles of Feather Lite in as many products as possible: providing our customers with maximum performance and protection combined with the lightest possible materials.

Rival aims to reduce the size and weight of materials while maintaining the same performance. This is to ensure efficiency. If we can find a lighter, thinner material that offers the same performance and durability as something heavier or more traditional like leather, we do it. Innovation and attention to detail are the Rival way!

Oz stands for the English word ounce. An ounce (abbreviated as oz) is a unit of weight commonly used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other countries that follow this system. One ounce is approximately equal to 28.35 grams.

In boxing gloves (and MMA gloves)this refers to the weight(the size) of the gloves. The larger the (padding of the) gloves, the higher the oz.

Just like our own skin, you need to regularly care for leather products to prevent drying and the like. 

The best thing to do is to lightly apply leather grease to your leather product, such as boxing gloves, from time to time.

No.

We deliver everything directly from our own stock and we are proud of that! 

You buy the product from us and not from some vague party far away.

After every training, spray a small dose into the boxing gloves. One spray is enough.

If you also use a deodorizer (which we recommend), we advise letting the boxing gloves dry first using the deodorizers and then using the disinfectant spray.

Tips for use:

• Hold the can 5 to 15 cm above the surface and quickly move the spray over the item you want to treat.
• Don’t leave your smelly sports gear lying around for too long; spray them immediately after training. 

No.

There aren't really specific women's boxing gloves. Boxing gloves are unisex, but women usually just choose a somewhat lighter boxing glove (read: smaller size). These are available in various color combinations.

Women generally have narrower hands than men, so it's better not to go for a boxing glove that is too heavy. We have made a separate selection within our range of boxing gloves that are more suitable for women due to the fit.

No.

Actually, there is no difference.

There are brands that are more focused on boxing or brands that are more focused on kickboxing and thai boxing. 

There are some small differences, but in practice, you can use boxing gloves for kickboxing and kickboxing gloves for boxing.
