The original boxing gloves from Thailand

Below you will find everything about the models, sizes, colors, and maintenance of Twins boxing gloves - the favorite choice of boxers and kickboxers worldwide for their quality, durability, and reliability.

Twins boxing gloves - handmade leather from the birthplace of Muay Thai

Twins boxing gloves have been the most beloved kickboxing gloves in the world for decades - and for good reason. Each pair is handmade in Thailand from 100% genuine cowhide leather, with a thickness of over 1 millimeter for exceptional durability and resilience.

The stitching is double stitched, the thumbs always sewn to the fist, and the finish is precise down to the smallest detail. The antibacterial inner surface neutralizes odors and guarantees freshness - even after the toughest training sessions.

The padding consists of polyurethane foam with a carefully chosen density: soft enough for comfort during sparring, firm enough for maximum protection. The wide, long Velcro closure wraps completely around the wrist first for optimal wrist support.

Twins Special is one of the few manufacturers recognized by the Nevada State Athletic Commission, the AIBA and the IFMA. Top fighters worldwide - from recreationalists to champions - train and fight with Twins.

Twins boxing gloves - choosing the right weight

The weight of a boxing glove determines the amount of padding and thus the protection - both for yourself and your training partner. As a rule of thumb: the heavier the weight, the more padding.

8 oz - exclusively for the Twins BGN. Suitable for light sparring, pads, or if you have a very small build. Also official competition weight Muay Thai gloves.

10 oz - light model, suitable for training on the punching bag and pads. Less suitable for sparring.

12 oz - the most popular size for women and lighter athletes. Suitable for both training and sparring.

14 oz - the standard size for most adult athletes. Ideal for sparring, pads, and punching bag training.

16 oz - extra padding, recommended for heavy sparring and larger/heavier athletes. Mandatory at many gyms for sparring.

18 oz and 20 oz - exclusively available in the Twins BGN. For heavy athletes or those who want maximum protection during sparring.

Rule of thumb: if you are unsure between two sizes, choose the heavier one - more padding is always safer for you and your training partner. If in doubt, we are happy to assist you personally in our showroom.

Twins boxing gloves - suitable for boxing, kickboxing, and Muay Thai

Twins bag gloves are designed from the tradition of Muay Thai but are certainly also suitable for a wide range of other martial arts:

Muay Thai and thai boxing - the home of Twins. The BGVL3 and BGVL4 are the classic choice for Muay Thai training and sparring. The perforated palm provides ventilation during intensive sessions.

Kickboxing - the Twins BGN is specially developed for the European kickboxing market, where more boxing techniques are combined with kicking techniques. The extra palm padding makes catching kicks more comfortable.

Boxing - the Twins BGLL with lace closure is the classic choice for boxers. The BGVL3 and BGN are also excellent for classic boxing.

Punching bag training and pads - all Twins models are suitable for training on the punching bag and punching mitts. For punching bag training only, the Twins bag gloves (TBM) are a better choice due to the more compact padding. Note: we always advise using separate gloves for the punching bag!

Cardio boksen and fitness - the BGN with extra palm padding is ideal for cardio boksen and fitness training.

Twins bag gloves are suitable for larger children, ladies, and gentlemen - from absolute beginner to professional champion.

Twins boxing gloves - maintenance and lifespan

Twins boxing gloves are made of 100% genuine cowhide leather and will last many intensive training hours with proper care. The leather is more than 1 millimeter thick and retains its resilience even after intensive use - as long as you take good care of them.

After every training: Leave the gloves open and in a ventilated place to dry - never in a sports bag or closed space. Moisture is the biggest enemy of leather. Use a disinfectant spray and/or insert a deodorizer deodorizer into the gloves (after training) to neutralize odors.

Regular maintenance: Treat the leather every few weeks with a good leather cream or leather grease to keep it supple and prevent drying out. Dry leather cracks faster and loses its protective properties.

What to avoid: Never put them in the washing machine. Do not dry in direct sunlight or near a heat source. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents on the leather.

Wearing Handwraps: Always wear handwraps Handwraps under your boxing gloves. This not only protects your hands and wrists but also keeps the inside of the gloves cleaner and drier - significantly extending their lifespan.

Frequently Asked Questions — Twins boxing gloves

What kind of padding do Twins boxing gloves have?

All Twins BGVL3/BGN models

  • Thick, multi-layer foam padding for optimal protection.

Twins gloves have more padding on the back/side of the hand than a regular boxing glove. They are made for Thai boxing, but are also suitable for kickboxing and boxing.

This padding is necessary due to blocking kicks and backfist strikes. A Twins glove offers slightly less knuckle protection than a "classic" boxing glove of similar weight. This is because the weight is distributed over other parts of the glove.

Collections

Can I use Twins boxing gloves for classic boxing?

Yes.

Twins boxing gloves are suitable for (Western) boxing, kickboxing, and thai boxing (Muay Thai).

They are also used in Krav Maga and MMA (stand-up fighting).

Although the Twins Special brand has its roots in Muay Thai, classic boxers around the world use Twins boxing gloves with just as much enthusiasm.

How do the Twins boxing gloves (BGVL3/4/8 and BGN) fit?

Twins boxing gloves generally fit large and are suitable for both wide and normal hands. 

Although Twins boxing gloves are quite wide, they are also suitable for people with "normal" hands. There is enough room to properly wrap your handwraps.

They are known for their somewhat larger padding size.

Our experience is that Twins feel tight at first (which is normal), but they become considerably roomier (break in) with use.

How can I best maintain my Twins Special boxing gloves?

Boxing gloves have a limited lifespan. After all, they are a product that is used for hitting, and boxing gloves often take a lot of wear and tear.

Of course, you can influence their lifespan yourself by taking good care of your boxing gloves properly and maintaining them. Don’t just throw them in a corner; take them out of your sports bag and let them dry properly (not in direct sunlight).
