What is the Angled Ergo-Strap System?

The key to the success of the Ergo Strap System lies in its simplicity: a conventional strap with a uniform width is replaced by a strap that is wider on the palm side of the wrist and measures 10 cm at its widest point, providing greater comfort, stability, and support for the wrist. It has since become an industry standard.

Innovation has always been at the forefront of Rival Boxing. In fact, our entry into the market was based on a revolutionary concept that set us apart from the rest of the industry.

Before Rival Boxing introduced the Ergo Strap System, most hook-and-loop boxing gloves used a conventional 5 or 7.5 cm strap to close the glove. This old type of closure did little more than that and offered no wrist support or stability. With a little ingenuity, a simple innovation; Rival Boxing redefined what “normal” is.
