In ITF Taekwon-do and WT Taekwondo, the two participants are traditionally distinguished by their corner color: blue and red. Bytomic Defender headgear is available in both competition colors, plus black for training and demonstrations where corner color is not relevant.

The correct corner color is mandatory in competitions - always check your federation's or tournament's regulations before purchasing headgear.

Ultralight foam with ear protection - maximum freedom of movement for high kicks

The featherlight foam construction provides maximum freedom of movement for the high kicking techniques that characterize taekwondo - you barely feel the protector while sparring. The special ear protection with extra cutouts and padding minimizes the risk of ear injuries, essential in a sport where head kicks are frequent.

The durable coating makes the protector easy to clean after training. The sturdy hook-and-loop closure keeps the headgear securely in place even during intense sparring.

What are the benefits of foam headgear?

Martial arts headgear, such as that often used in Taekwondo, is regularly made from modern foam. This headgear offers significant advantages over other materials.

Main benefits of foam headgear:

  • Lightweight
  • Good impact distribution
  • Durable coating
  • Hygienic
  • Easy to clean
  • Quick to put on and take off
Is headgear mandatory?

That depends on the discipline, age group, organization, and the specific training session or competition. Follow the current rules that apply to your participation.

There is no single general list that remains accurate for all youth and adult competitions. Check not only what you must wear, but also which models, certifications, and colors are allowed.

Collections

What is the benefit of good headgear?

Depending on the design, headgear provides extra coverage around areas such as the forehead, cheeks and ears. A proper fit and clear visibility are important for training equipment to be practical.

More facial coverage does not mean that all types of head injury are prevented. Headgear does not guarantee protection against concussion and is not a reason to sparren harder or without restraint. Check the intended use and the training or competition rules.

Collections

How do I know if a headgear fits properly?

We usually do two things in our showroom:

  1. Quickly shake your head from side to side
  2. Tap all sides of the headgear. Preferably use a slightly sliding technique to force friction.

If the headgear barely moves or does not move at all and does not pinch at the same time, you have the right size!
