For Karate sparring (kumite), you typically need WKF (World Karate Federation) approved style mitts. These are padded gloves that cover the knuckles and back of the hand, leaving the palm open for grabbing and technique. For general training, other padded guards can also be suitable.
The best way is to check the specific size chart on each product page. Generally, sizing is based on measuring the width of your palm across the knuckles. If you're between sizes, it's often better to choose the slightly larger size for a more comfortable fit.
Yes, many of our hand guards, particularly the open-palm and dipped-foam styles, are excellent for Taekwondo (WT) sparring. They provide essential protection for the hands and knuckles while allowing for the flexibility required for blocking and striking techniques.
To prolong the life of your hand guards, always air them out after each use to prevent odour and bacteria buildup. You can wipe them down with a damp cloth and a mild disinfectant. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals, as this can degrade the foam and synthetic materials.
