Rival Boxing Gear RHGC2 Amateur Red Headgear

The Rival RHGC2 Amateur Headgear Red is the competition headgear for serious amateur boxers—made entirely from 100% full-grain leather, approved by USA Boxing, and finished in the classic red of the red corner.

Rival RHGC2 Amateur Headgear Red - front view

USA Boxing approved - full-grain leather with 4-layer foam

The RHGC2 meets all production requirements set by USA Boxing—the international standard for amateur boxing competitions. The 4-layer laminated foam padding optimally absorbs impact and protects the head from both direct punches and glancing blows.

The full-grain leather is durable and retains its shape after intensive use. The soft inner lining provides a comfortable feel, as if you are barely wearing the headgear.

Three adjustment points - always the perfect fit

The RHGC2 features a lace-up adjustment at the top, two hook-and-loop closures at the back, and an ultra-smooth buckle on the chin strap. Together, these three adjustment points provide a secure, personalized fit that stays in place during sparring.

The anatomical occipital pad provides extra comfort and stability. Lightweight construction allows maximum freedom of movement in the ring.

Specific features

  • + Approved by USA Boxing

    Meets all production requirements of USA Boxing - approved for use in amateur boxing competitions worldwide.

  • + 4-layer laminated foam padding

    The 4-layer laminated foam padding provides optimal shock absorption from punches - each layer has its own function for maximum head protection.

  • + Anatomical occipital cushion

    The anatomical occipital cushion fits the shape of the head precisely for a stable, comfortable fit - even during extended sparring sessions.

  • + Shin guard with buckle - always a perfect fit

    The ultra-smooth chin strap with buckle combined with lace adjustment at the top and double hook-and-loop fastening at the back provides an accurate, secure fit every time.

  • + Premium-quality leather

    Leather is the material that made the boxing world what it is - and there's a good reason for that. Premium-quality leather molds to the hand, becomes more supple with use, and with proper care lasts through many hours of training without losing its shape or firmness.

    While synthetic materials can flake or harden over time, high-quality leather retains its character. It feels different - fuller, more authentic - and you notice it during every training session. For athletes who refuse to compromise on equipment.

Rival - Designed in Canada 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 available equipment. 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

Tips for Rival Leather Headgear

The lace-up closure (RHG-Guerrero) provides the most precise fit. Adjust it properly once, then tighten the laces to the same tension each time.

After training, wipe down your Rival gear with a clean, dry cloth and let it air out of your gym bag in a cool, shaded, well-ventilated place. Use only a mild cleaner or sports spray suitable for the material. Do not use petroleum jelly, oil, leather grease or heavy creams, even on leather coverings. Avoid washing machines, dryers, direct heat and sunlight.

Isn’t a buckle dangerous on headgear?

On headgear with a buckle, the buckle should be covered or concealed by design. Check the chin strap and the covering before use.

A buckle is not risk-free in every situation and is not automatically the most secure fastening. Do not use the protector if a hard part is unintentionally exposed, the covering is damaged or the fastening is not secure.
