Men's boxing gloves

With our years of experience in kickboxing and boxing, we know what’s really GOOD. We have a large stock of men's boxing gloves ready to ship!

Difference between men's boxing gloves and women's boxing gloves

Men's boxing gloves mainly differ from women's boxing gloves in color and weight; boxing gloves are almost always unisex.

The biggest difference is mainly in the size of the boxing gloves. Since men generally weigh more and have larger hands, a larger size boxing glove fits better on the hand.

Sizing men's boxing gloves and kickboxing gloves

Men typically choose 14 oz or 16 oz boxing gloves, with 16 oz being the standard weight. If you weigh around 70-75 kg, 14 oz is also a good choice.

The size of the boxing glove also depends on the martial arts brand and the weight of the boxer. It’s important to choose the right size (read: weight) boxing gloves. Almost all men train with 14 oz or 16 oz. A few who are smaller and lighter use 12 oz.

Men's boxing gloves for beginners

Just starting with boxing? Your training probably still mostly consists of hitting a punching bag, punching mitts, or someone else’s boxing gloves. You’ll mainly be focused on learning technique and less on sparren or punching with power.

As a beginner boxer, it’s perfectly fine to start with synthetic leather boxing gloves; these gloves are usually cheaper and great for beginners.

If you want to go for quality, we recommend using 100% leather boxing gloves or high-quality microfiber, such as the Rival RS11V. These have a longer lifespan, don’t smell as quickly, and generally have a better fit.

The best boxing gloves in terms of price-quality ratio, especially for beginners and semi-advanced, are the XPRT boxing gloves. They are unbeatable and offer great value for money. Especially the XPRT Pro V3 made of genuine leather are very popular. If you want to spend a bit more, boxing gloves from Twins Special or Hayabusa are an excellent choice.

Men's boxing gloves for advanced users

Are you an advanced boxer? Then besides technique, you probably also focus on the power of your punches. In that case, we always recommend using 100% leather boxing gloves or top-quality microfiber. These have a longer lifespan, don’t smell as quickly, and generally have a better fit.

Our favorite boxing gloves in the premium segment for advanced users are undoubtedly the boxing gloves from Rival Boxing Gear. If you want a more classic brand with a touch of nostalgia and tradition, you can hardly go wrong with the Mexican boxing gloves from Cleto Reyes.

Looking for the absolute top of the top? Then definitely check out the very exclusive boxing gloves from Winning and Di Nardo.

When your training involves more power and you also start sparren, it’s important to have a good bitje and matching headgear to prevent injury.

Advice on men's boxing gloves

When making the right choice, training intensity is also important. To choose the right boxing gloves, it’s good to know what you will be using them for.

Are you only going to sparren or mainly doing punching bag training and using the boxing gloves occasionally?

Also, every hand is different and everyone prefers a different boxing glove. So be sure to visit us in the showroom so we can give you personal advice.
