Whether you're a seasoned boxer, a Muay Thai practitioner, or just starting your fitness journey, the right pair of bag gloves is a non-negotiable part of your kit.

Bag gloves have denser, firmer padding concentrated over the knuckles to protect your hands when hitting a heavy bag. Sparring gloves have softer, more distributed padding designed to protect your training partner from injury during drills and sparring.
No, you should never use bag gloves for sparring. Their hard, dense padding can easily injure your training partner. Always use dedicated, appropriately weighted sparring gloves to ensure a safe training environment for everyone.
Bag gloves are often sized in Small, Medium, Large, and X-Large, unlike the ounce (oz) sizing of sparring or competition gloves. The best way to find your size is to measure your hand circumference and consult the specific brand's sizing chart on the product page. Always account for wearing hand wraps underneath.
Both have their advantages. Genuine leather gloves are typically more durable, breathable, and conform to your hand over time, making them a great long-term investment. Modern synthetic leather gloves offer excellent performance and durability at a more affordable price point, making them a fantastic choice for beginners and frequent trainers.
To prolong the life of your gloves and prevent odour, always wipe them down inside and out with a clean cloth after each use. Use a glove deodoriser or anti-bacterial spray and let them air dry completely away from direct sunlight. Never leave them in a closed gym bag.
