FAQs

How does the Compact series differ from Boon's Classic BGV gloves?
The Compact series features a smaller hand compartment designed specifically for smaller hands and wrists, with a shorter velcro strap. The BGV Classic has a wider fit. If regular gloves feel too roomy, the Compact is your answer.

Are these suitable for larger hands?
The Compact series is specifically designed for smaller hands and wrists. If you have average to large hands, consider Boon's Classic BGV series instead for a better fit.

Will the compact fit affect protection?
Not at all. The three-layer foam construction provides the same excellent shock absorbency and knuckle protection as Boon's other models—just in a more tailored package for smaller hands.

How long does the cowhide take to break in?
Expect 2–3 training sessions for the genuine cowhide to soften and conform to your hands. The compact design means less excess material, so break-in is typically faster than roomier gloves.
