  This ensures a stable fit, prevents shifting during sparring, and provides targeted protection for a vulnerable area that is often overlooked with standard headgear.

• + 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.

Intelli-Shock D3O™

Intelli-Shock D3O™ is the world’s best shock-absorbing padding Rival was the first—and remains the only—company in the boxing and MMA world to use it.

With approximately 6 mm of Intelli-Shock padding you get the same protection as with approximately 25 mm of other padding. This is because it uses Intelligent Shock Absorption™—at low speeds, the molecules move freely (soft and flexible), while at high speeds, they lock together (providing excellent shock absorption).

The RB10 Intelli-Shock boxing gloves harden on impact. This reduces impact load by 40%* and makes the glove approximately 38% lighter than regular boxing gloves with gel technology.
