Rival Boxing Gear gloves RFX Guerrero Sparring SF-H Black (laces) Boxing gloves

There are boxing gloves, and there are gloves with horsehair. The Rival RFX Guerrero Sparring SF-H in black is handmade from the finest cowhide leather—with a padding construction that goes back to the roots of boxing.

For the boxer who knows the tradition and understands why it still exists.

Based on the competition glove worn by world champions

The RFX Guerrero Sparring is designed as the sparring version of Rival's RFX-Guerrero Pro Fight Glove—the glove worn in the ring by a series of world champions and #1 contenders.

The same fit, the same feel—but with extra protection for intense sparring. Plus a lace-up closure for an optimal, secure fit around the wrist.

SF-H padding: foam and quilted horsehair

What sets the SF-H apart from other sparring gloves is its padding construction. A combination of shock-absorbing foam and a layer of quilted horsehair—a technique that has been used for decades by the finest glove makers in the world.

Laminated with low-density polyurethane foam, giving the leather a soft texture and the glove a broken-in, familiar feel from the very first training session.

Handmade cowhide leather

The RFX Guerrero SF-H is handcrafted from the finest cowhide leather—with attention to every detail. Leather that shapes itself to your hand, grows with the boxer, and gets better the more you use it.

In black, that character is most noticeable: no distractions, just the quality of the material itself.

Fit, comfort, and thumb protection

The inside is neatly finished with a soft inner lining that surrounds the hand and feels comfortable—even during long training sessions. The integrated thumb protector helps prevent thumb injuries on impact.

Available in 14 and 16 oz. The sparring glove for the boxer who respects tradition.

Specific features

  • + Handcrafted with pride

    Each product in the RFX Guerrero line is handcrafted from the finest cowhide leather. The artisanal production guarantees consistent quality and finish that machine-made gear cannot match - visible in every detail, felt during every training session.

  • + Sparring version of Rival's most iconic fight glove

    The RFX Guerrero Sparring is the sparring version of Rivals' most iconic fight glove - same fit, same feel, extra protection. is de sparringversie van Rivals meest iconische fight glove — zelfde pasvorm, zelfde gevoel, extra bescherming.

  • + Low-density inner foam padding (SF-H)

    The SF-H padding combines a layer of low-density polyurethane foam with a quilted layer horsehair for extra hand protection. The foam adds texture to the leather and gives the glove a soft, broken-in feel - while the horsehair layer provides classic, proven protection for the knuckles and hands.

  • + Premium-quality leather

    Leather is the material that made the boxing world what it is - and there's a good reason for that. Premium-quality leather molds to the hand, becomes more supple with use, and with proper care lasts through many hours of training without losing its shape or firmness.

    While synthetic materials can flake or harden over time, high-quality leather retains its character. It feels different - fuller, more authentic - and you notice it during every training session. For athletes who refuse to compromise on equipment.

  • + Printed and embroidered Rival graphics

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

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

Angled Lace Track System Angled Lace Track System

Since the first boxing gloves were made, there has always been a fundamental design flaw. More precisely, the point where the glove's striking area met the wrist shaft was never exactly where the boxer's wrist was located.

Trainers therefore had to repeatedly lace and tape the gloves above that point to secure the glove firmly around the wrist and provide much-needed wrist support.

That's why Rival has revised the design and assembly of gloves. Inspired by the RS1 and by making the glove's body shorter and the cuff higher, the Angled Lace Track – at an angle of 15 degrees – was created.

This innovative, creative, and logical design ensures that when laced, the glove sits precisely around the boxer's wrist, providing a perfect anatomical fit and the desired wrist support!

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 available equipment. 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

Tips for Rival RFX Guerrero Sparring FS-H boxing gloves

It is always recommended to use handwraps with your RFX Guerrero's. In addition to supporting your hands, they also absorb a lot of sweat.

A disinfectant spray and a deodorizer- to help your gloves dry faster - are also highly recommended to keep your boxing gloves fresh.

After training, wipe down your Rival gear with a clean, dry cloth and let it air out of your sports bag in a cool, shaded, well-ventilated place. Use only a mild cleaner or sports spray suitable for the material. Do not use petroleum jelly, oil, leather grease or heavy creams, even on leather coverings. Avoid washing machines, tumble dryers, direct heat and sunlight.

Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 12 reviews.

Wat een super fijne pasvorm heeft deze handschoen. Geweldige uitvoering en uitstraling. Ben niet heel snel enthousiast over Bokshandschoenen, maar deze staan wat mij betreft op nr 1. Zowel de prijs, the looks, als de functionaliteit voldoen aan een hoge standaard.

Bokshandschoenen Rival RFX Guerrero Sparring SF-H Wit (veters)

ik ben erg blij met mijn aankoop. De handschoenen voelen geweldig aan en hebben me goed gediend tijdens het sparren, heel erg bedankt Rival Boxing! Deze waren hard nodig. Supersnel verzonden, ze zijn een paar rondjes zachter geworden op de heavy bag. De beste bokshandschoenen die ik ooit heb gedragen.

Bokshandschoenen Rival RFX Guerrero Sparring HDE-F White (veters)

Deze handschoenen zijn geweldig! De leerkwaliteit is indrukwekkend en ze passen geweldig. Houd er rekening mee dat de HDE-F steviger is en een langere inlooptijd vereist, maar dat gezegd hebbende, zouden ze langer mee moeten gaan. Ik ben opgewonden om de duurzaamheid hiervan te zien! Bedankt Rival!

Frequently Asked Questions — Boxing gloves Rival RFX Guerrero Sparring SF-H Black (laces)

How do I care for Rival gloves, pads and headgear?

For cleaning, use only mild cleaning products or sprays made specifically for sports gear and suitable for the material. A deodorizer, such as a glove dog, and a suitable sports spray help keep your gloves fresh.

Is there a difference between women’s and men’s boxing gloves?

Many boxing gloves can be worn by both men and women. The best choice depends on the hand compartment, wrist closure and intended use of the specific model.

Don't automatically choose a lower oz rating because you're a woman or a smaller athlete. Try on the gloves with handwraps and use the model-specific size chart. For a small hand, a more compact hand compartment may matter more than a lower glove weight.

Also check out our women's boxing gloves. Choose from this collection based on hand compartment size, fit and training goals.

What does “oz” mean?

Oz is short for ounce, a unit of weight. One ounce is approximately 28.35 grams. For boxing gloves, the oz designation indicates a glove’s nominal weight class.

Oz is not a standardized hand size and does not tell you exactly how much padding a glove has. Gloves of the same weight can differ in hand space, padding distribution and intended use. For MMA gloves, you often choose the hand size separately, for example S, M or L.

Should I condition or grease the leather?

Keep leather sports equipment clean and let it air-dry after training. Gently wipe off dirt with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Not all leather needs conditioning: use a suitable leather care product only when the type of leather and its finish allow it, and apply a thin layer. Do not use leather grease on microfiber or other synthetic coverings.

Is there a difference between kickboxing gloves and boxing gloves?

Many boxing gloves can also be used for kickboxing. So the collection name alone does not determine whether a model is right for you. Focus on comparing the hand space, padding and wrist closure.

Boxing focuses on punching and keeping your guard up. In kickboxing and Muay Thai, blocking kicks and possibly clinching also come into play. Choose the design that feels comfortable for your training.

Is a lace-up closure better for boxing gloves?

Not for every use. Laces let you adjust the closure across more of the cuff. Velcro is usually more practical if you want to put on your gloves quickly by yourself or need to take them off during training.

The overall fit also depends on the cuff, the hand compartment and the model's construction. A lace-up closure does not automatically make two different gloves equivalent. Tuck away laces and Velcro carefully so they cannot scratch your training partner.

How do Rival boxing gloves fit?

The fit varies by Rival model and version. Compare the hand compartment and wrist closure of the specific model and use its size chart.

Try on gloves with the handwraps you wear during training. You should be able to make a fist without pain, tingling, or uncomfortable pressure. Don't assume that breaking in a glove will fix a hand compartment that doesn't fit.
