Training - Sparring - Competition. What are the differences between boxing gloves?
The differences between boxing gloves for training, sparring and competition are mainly in the padding, weight and fit.
Training boxing gloves : Training boxing gloves are usually slightly heavier and have thicker padding to protect the boxer's hands and knuckles during training. They are also often made of more durable material to withstand the constant wear and tear during training.
Boxing gloves for sparring: Boxing gloves for sparring are usually slightly lighter and have thinner padding compared to training gloves. This makes it easier to move and perform techniques during sparring, while still providing some protection for the hands and knuckles. Sparring gloves are also often slightly larger than training gloves to also protect the head and face of the sparring partner.
Boxing gloves for competition: Boxing gloves for competition are usually the lightest and have the thinnest padding. This is to allow the boxer greater speed and accuracy in his punches. The weight of the competition gloves is closely controlled and regulated to ensure that both boxers box at the same level. Competition gloves also often have a different fit to training or sparring gloves to ensure they fit the boxer's hands perfectly for maximum performance.
What weights are available in boxing gloves?
Boxing gloves come in a variety of weights that are mandated by most boxing federations. The weight classes usually range from 8 ounces to 20 ounces.
For adults, boxing gloves weighing between 10 ounces and 16 ounces are usually recommended, with the optimal weight depending on factors such as the boxer's body weight, height and level of experience. Beginners or those with a smaller stature should usually choose lighter gloves to protect their hands and maintain a greater degree of control over their punches. Experienced boxers or those with a higher stature may choose heavier gloves to provide even more protection and power in their punches.
Children's gloves are usually between 4 ounces and 8 ounces in weight. The choice of weight should always be based on the weight and age of the child to ensure they get the right protection and their wrists are not overstressed. A coach or experienced boxer can best advise on the correct glove weight for children.
However, it is important to note that the choice of boxing glove ultimately depends on individual preferences, training needs and goals. So it is always advisable to consult an expert before buying gloves.
This way you can enjoy your boxing gloves for a long time.
To ensure your boxing gloves last a long time and stay in good condition, there are some care tips you should consider:
1. Dry out your gloves thoroughly after each training session. If your gloves get damp, this can cause bacteria and odours to build up. To do this, simply apply a towel to remove the excess moisture and air dry your boxing gloves.
2. Never leave your gloves in direct sunlight or in hot temperatures, such as in a car. The heat can wear out the leather and damage the padding.
3. Wash your gloves occasionally with soap and water. However, be careful not to use harsh detergents or too much moisture as this can damage the leather.
4. Use an antimicrobial spray to keep your gloves fresh between training or sparring. This can help reduce unpleasant odours and keep your gloves clean and hygienic.
5.Keep your gloves in a dry and well-ventilated place. Avoid storing gloves in a closed bag or a damp room to prevent condensation and mould.
Regular care and maintenance will ensure that your boxing gloves last a long time and remain in good condition.
