Kids boxing gloves King Pro Boxing Hexagon Black

Children usually train with boxing gloves of 6 oz, 8 oz, or 10 oz. Very occasionally, for very small children, there are even 2 oz or 4 oz gloves.

Below are general guidelines. For each brand and model 

Choose by age:

• up to 3-4 years - 2 oz
• up to 4-5 years - 4 oz
• up to 6-8 years - 6 oz
• up to 9-11 years - 8 oz
• from 12 years - 10 oz

Choose by body weight

• up to 35 kg - 6 oz
• 35 – 45 kg - 8 oz
• 45 – 55 kg - 10 oz

We have also created unique size charts for this. Here you can look at both age and weight. In case of doubt, we recommend looking at weight rather than age.

The rule of thumb is: "the heavier the child in question, the heavier the glove to be used is desired". A heavier boxing glove generally has more padding and is therefore safer for the hands and the training partner. Trainers generally also prefer that you have heavier boxing gloves rather than lighter ones.

There is no specific age requirement here. The minimum age will be around 4 years old, but most gyms set the age at 7 or 8 years old. Be sure to check with the gym where you want to take the child.

Yes.

Boxing gloves that fit well are definitely safe for children. Of course, there are a few important factors to consider: the length and width of the hand compartment and wrist closure. If these fit well without pinching, then it is safe to use.

Also, don’t buy kids boxing gloves that are too big, because too loose means sliding, and that is not good.

Wearing inner gloves is recommended for small children who sweat a lot. The sweat then goes into the inner gloves, which you can then put in the wash. This keeps the gloves fresher for longer.

For older children, we recommend wearing handwraps. These provide more support and protection. It is up to the trainer to decide how and what.

Boxing gloves have a limited lifespan. After all, they are a product that is used for hitting, and boxing gloves often take a lot of wear and tear.

Of course, you can influence their lifespan yourself by taking good care of your boxing gloves properly and maintaining them. Don’t just throw them in a corner; take them out of your sports bag and let them dry properly (not in direct sunlight).
