Groinguard boxing Rival RNFL10-360 D3O

Rival Boxing Gear was founded in Canada in the early 2000s and has since experienced steady growth in the world of martial arts, with an emphasis on classic boxing. The company was founded by Russ Anber, a prominent name in the boxing world.

Anber, a respected boxing trainer and coach, had an in-depth understanding of what fighters needed to improve their skills and excel in the ring. With this background and expertise, he aimed to produce high-quality equipment that would meet fighters’ needs.

Yes, usually.

A groinguard is often mandatory or recommended. For boxing, kickboxing, and karate training, for example, it is recommended. In krav maga and self-defense systems, it is mandatory. The area protected by the groinguard is, of course, highly vulnerable to injury.

During exams and competitions, a groinguard is always mandatory for both men and women.

A "regular" cup only protects the groin. A no-foul protector in boxing protects the kidneys, liver, and groin.

In boxing, the chance of taking punches to the liver or kidneys is much greater than in kickboxing. Extra protection is therefore needed to minimize the risk of injuries and damage.

Yes and no.

This depends on the brand and model. You can almost never wash the cup (the hard part), nor do you need to. Most regular groinguards are built into a kind of sports brief (jockstrap). You can remove the cup and wash the brief.

The larger kidney and groinguards (No-Foul) designed for boxing obviously cannot be washed in a washing machine either. This really shouldn’t be necessary. You can simply wipe them down and dry them to keep them fresh. 

Naturally, you can’t wash the steel groinguards either. The metal is not designed to withstand this.

When choosing the size of groinguards, the main consideration is waist circumference rather than the cup size itself. For each groinguard, we have included a unique size chart (in the size selector and below in the product information) for that specific brand and model.

Intelli-Shock D3O™ is the world's best shock-absorbing padding. ter wereld.

Rival Boxing Gear was the first, and is currently the only, company in the boxing or MMA world to use it.

How effective is Intelli-Shock? You get the same protection with approximately one-quarter inch (6 mm) or one-eighth inch (3 mm) of Intelli-Shock padding as with approximately one inch (25 mm) of other padding. This is because it uses Intelligent Shock Absorption™, a patented shock-absorbing material developed with Intelligent Molecules.

At low speeds, the molecules in D3O™ flow freely, making it soft and flexible, while at high speeds, the molecules come together to form an excellent shock absorber. D3O™ provides significantly more protection than conventional foams, making it the perfect solution for improving the internal protection of equipment and accessories.

The Rival RB10 Intelli-Shock bag gloves, which use this technology, become firmer on contact and not only reduce the amount of energy transferred to the body by 40%*. This means a drastic reduction in impact stress, while the glove is also approximately 38% lighter than regular gel-technology bag gloves available on the market.

D3O® is an innovative material with extreme shock absorption! Unlike other cushioning materials, D3O® retains its durable performance throughout the lifespan of, for example, boxing gloves. It is also used in protective clothing for defense and extreme sports, such as ice hockey.
