Specific features

  • + Premium Mexican leather

    Mexican leather has a strong reputation in the boxing world. It is known for its flexibility, durability, and ability to mold to the boxer’s hand. Many of the most respected boxing gloves in the world are made from Mexican leather—a tradition that dates back to the golden era of boxing.

    Premium Mexican leather is thicker and fuller than standard leather, providing better shock absorption and a longer lifespan. For boxers who want the best, this is the material of choice.

  • + Veclro and buckle adjustment

    This headgear features a triple closure: lace adjustment combined with hook-and-loop fasteners and a buckle. This combination provides the most precise and stable fit possible—the laces for coarse adjustment, the hook-and-loop fasteners for fine-tuning, and the buckle for a locked, secure closure.

    The result is headgear that stays in place during intense sparren without shifting or rotating. Ideal for boxers who require maximum stability and a perfect custom fit.
