Twins Special's multi-layer foam technology provides superior shock absorption. The ergonomic shaping and premium leather offer better durability, breathability, and comfort than budget alternatives.

Twins Special gear is widely accepted in Muay Thai and kickboxing competitions globally. Always verify your specific event's requirements, as some organizations have color restrictions.
