Boxing gloves Rival Evolution RS11V Sparring Blue

Specific features

• + Soft padded lining

  Soft, padded inner lining that adapts to the hand for maximum comfort during long training sessions.

• + Rival's 15° angled cuff

  The 15° angled cuff is one of the most recognizable features of Rival Boxing Gear. The cuff is set at a 15-degree angle, keeping the wrist in a slightly bent, natural position.

  This reduces strain on the wrist joint on impact and ensures better power transfer with every punch.

• + Rival AirFlow Regulation System

  The AirFlow ventilation system provides optimal ventilation during intense training sessions and keeps the gloves fresh and dry.

• + Excellent fit with a perfect hand compartment

  Rival boxing gloves were developed in close collaboration with experienced boxers, with the aim of providing an excellent fit and a perfect hand compartment . The interior is shaped so that the hand rests naturally and comfortably in a fist—with no pressure points or unwanted movement while punching.A good fit is not only a matter of comfort—it also determines how effectively the force of a punch is transferred and how well the hand remains protected. Rival has refined this down to the smallest detail, so the glove feels like an extension of the hand.

  Een goede pasvorm is niet alleen een kwestie van comfort - het bepaalt ook hoe effectief de kracht van een stoot wordt overgebracht en hoe goed de hand beschermd blijft. Rival heeft dit tot in detail uitgewerkt, zodat de handschoen aanvoelt als een verlengstuk van de hand.

• + Indestructible Super Rich Microfiber

  Of Indestructible Super Rich Microfibre is the patented outer material that Rival specifically developed for its premium product line. It is not standard microfibre—it is a unique material developed by Rival itself that withstands the demanding conditions of intense daily training without losing its shape, color, or structure.

  The material combines two properties that are normally difficult to bring together: extremely strong and lightweight. Where traditional leather is heavier and stiffer, this microfibre offers a rich, premium look with a softness that feels comfortable right away—and stays that way, even after many hours of training.

  This is the material that defines the RS and Guerrero lines, and the reason Rival gloves still look as good as new after years of use.

• + Extra-thick layered foam padding for intense sparren

  Sparren requires a different kind of protection than bag training—you protect not only your own hands, but also your sparring partner. This Rival sparring glove is equipped with an extra-thick, layered foam padding that absorbs and distributes the force of punches before they land.

  The multiple foam layers work together: the outer layer absorbs the initial impact, while the inner layers distribute the remaining force over a larger surface area. The result is a glove that enables safe and responsible sparring—even during intense and extended sessions.

• + Printed and embroidered Rival graphics

  Rival products feature printed and embroidered graphics that enhance the brand’s premium look. The combination of printing and embroidery provides a finish that stays sharp—even after intensive use, sweat, and repeated washing.

  While cheaper brands opt for simple stickers or surface prints that quickly fade, Rival invests in a durable graphic finish that keeps the product’s identity visible for the long term. A sign of quality that you truly appreciate after many hours of training.

Wrist Lock 2

True to the philosophy of Rival Boxing, we continually strive for evolution, improvement, and innovation. Hence the development of the Wrist Lock 2 system.

Rather than adhering to a one-dimensional adjustment, Rival invented the double V-shaped strap With a loop on both the thumb side and the opposite side, the Wrist Lock 2 ensures that both sides of the glove are compressed evenly—similar to applying tape over the cuff of a professional boxing glove.

Ergo design

Rival strives, across as many product lines as possible, to guarantee an ergonomic and anatomical design that is as possible .

This principle forms the basis of the design philosophy and ensures that Rival Boxing Gear pays special attention to every aspect of every new idea – whether it concerns the correct anatomical fit for our RNFL groin protector or gloves such as the RB5 bag gloves that stay firmly secured, allowing you to form a perfect fist kunt maken.

Rival - Designed in Canada

In 2003, Russ Anber Rival Boxing Gear founded it—not as a businessman, but as someone who had spent decades in the gym and knew exactly what was lacking in the equipment available. He began innovating, patenting, and building, permanently changing the boxing world with patented designs in gloves, punching mitts, and handwraps.

“My gift was the ability to coach, break things down, analyze and make people understand how things work.” — Russ Anber
