FAQs

What's the difference between lace-up and velcro gloves?
Lace-up gloves provide a custom, locked-in fit that cannot loosen during competition. They require someone to lace you in and take several minutes to put on. Velcro gloves are quick on/off but cannot match the security of laces. Lace-ups are mandatory for most professional competitions.

Can I use these for training?
Yes, many pros train in lace-up gloves to match competition feel. However, you'll need someone to lace you in each time. For solo bag work or convenience, velcro gloves like Windy's BGVH are more practical.

Are these approved for amateur competition?
Yes, these gloves meet competition requirements in Thailand and Europe. However, always verify specific requirements with your federation, as some amateur organisations have additional specifications.

How tight should lace-up gloves be?
They should be snug enough that your hand cannot shift inside the glove during punching, but not so tight that circulation is restricted. Proper lacing is crucial—most pros have their corner person lace them to their preferred tightness.
