• Boxing – technical training, pad work and sparring
• Kickboxing – combination training and bag work

Material and construction

The exterior is made from wear-resistant synthetic leather with a matte finish — a choice that delivers a professional look that will not wear down or turn glossy quickly. The three inner foam layers spread impact evenly across the knuckles and hand, helping to prevent injuries and extend the life of your hands. The reinforced seams keep the glove in shape and sturdy even with intensive daily use.

Closure and fit

The sturdy hook-and-loop closure lets you put the glove on quickly and precisely. The wide closure surface supports the wrist, which is essential to prevent wrist injuries when punching. The fixed thumb keeps your thumb in the correct, protected position with every punch.

Size advice

The Shadow is available in four weights. Use the guide below to choose the right size:

• 10 oz – suitable for lighter boxers, women and youth; ideal for pad and technique work
• 12 oz – versatile choice for women and lighter men for bag and pad training
• 14 oz – popular all-round size for regular training and light sparring
• 16 oz – the standard for sparring and heavier boxers

Torn between two sizes? Choose the heavier option if you mainly spar, and the lighter option if you mostly do technique and speed work.
