The Rival RHG60F 2.0 is the updated version of the popular RHG60—the headgear that Rival specifically developed for boxers who want serious protection without the price of the professional range. The F in RHG60F stands for the integrated chin protector—the addition that distinguishes the RHG60F 2.0 from its predecessor.

Specific features

+ Ergonomic protection for the back of the head

The ergonomic occipital protection is anatomically shaped and fits closely to the contours of the head.
This ensures a stable fit, prevents shifting during sparring, and provides targeted protection for a vulnerable area that is often overlooked with standard headgear.
+ Large cheekbone protectors

The large cheekbone protectors provide extra coverage in one of the most vulnerable areas during sparren. They extend farther than standard headgear, helping absorb side and diagonal strikes more effectively.
Especially during intense sparren, protecting the cheekbones is crucial—a poorly protected cheekbone can lead to pain and injuries that put training on hold for weeks. Large cheekbone protectors are a deliberate choice for athletes who do not want to take risks.
+ Made from high-quality synthetic leather

This product is made of high-quality Synthetic leather - a durable alternative to genuine leather that has been specially developed for intensive use in sports. Synthetic leather is resistant to sweat, moisture, and friction, and retains its shape and appearance even after many hours of training.
Compared to cheaper artificial leather, high-quality Synthetic leather offers better grip, a smoother finish, and a longer lifespan. The material is also easier to clean than genuine leather and requires less maintenance.

Multi-layer foam padding headgear

The multi-layer foam padding in this headgear consists of multiple foam layers, each with its own function. The outer layer absorbs the initial impact, the middle layer distributes the force over a larger surface area, and the inner layer provides comfort and a secure fit around the head.

This layered approach offers better protection than a single foam layer—the force of a punch is gradually reduced before it reaches the head. Essential for anyone who spars regularly and takes their brain health seriously.

Rival - Designed in Canada

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 equipment available. 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

Ergo design

Rival strives, across as many product lines as possible, to guarantee an ergonomic and anatomical design that is as possible .

This principle forms the basis of the design philosophy and ensures that Rival Boxing Gear pays special attention to every aspect of every new idea – whether it concerns the correct anatomical fit for our RNFL groin protector or gloves such as the RB5 bag gloves that stay firmly secured, allowing you to form a perfect fist kunt maken.

How long does headgear last?

This depends on how often you train with it and how well you care for your headgear.

As a general rule, you can use headgear for at least 1 to 2 years before it needs replacing. If you keep it clean, it will stay fresh and headgear can last much longer! By then, it will already have protected, supported, and saved you many times!

Top-quality headgear such as Winning can last for years before showing any signs of wear.
