Boxing accessories on clearance

Inelastic or Semi-elastic Straps

Boxing wraps are worn under gloves to support the wrist, bunch the metacarpals and absorb sweat, which also protects the inside of the gloves. Inelastic wraps, like the Montana four-metre by five-centimetre band or the Kwon Cobra for children, hold the wrist firmly but require careful application to avoid creasing. Semi-elastic wraps, known as Mexican, like the 8 Weapons, mould to the hand and tighten more easily and evenly. A two-metre fifty wrap is suitable for children, while a four-metre to four-metre fifty wrap is for adults, covering the wrist, palm and fingers.

Bear Paws, Pao and Chest Guard: Coach's Equipment

Bear paws are worn by the coach to receive combinations of punches: the Twins Special, a Thai brand renowned for its leather, and the Metal Boxe Heracles made of leather absorb strong blows, while the Booster Xtrem and Kwon for children are suitable for group sessions. The pao, a rectangular pad strapped to the forearm, receives kicks, knee strikes and elbows from Muay Thai boxing, and the Pao Club Metal Boxe outfits gyms. The chest guard, like the Metal Boxe Mirror or the full Sparring model, protects the coach's stomach and ribs during body work and circular kicks.

Speed Bag, Gong and Mats to Equip a Gym

The speed bag platform Metal Boxe is fixed to the wall and holds a suspended bag that rebounds against the platform: when struck in rhythm, it develops coordination between the eye and the hand, arm speed and shoulder endurance. The gong in the ring indicates the start and end of rounds: in professional boxing, a round lasts three minutes, followed by a minute of rest. The puzzle mat Metal Boxe, made of interlocking foam, cushions falls and protects the floor of a gym or converted garage. Finally, the abdominal belt Montana protects the partner's stomach who takes body punches.

Sports Bags and Boxer Backpacks

Gloves, wraps, mouthguards, headgear and spare clothing require a bag that is spacious and well-ventilated. The sport bag Fairtex, from the Thai brand founded in 1971 and associated with one of the most famous Muay Thai camps, accommodates the full gear. The Metal Boxe Club bag and the MMA model from the same brand are aimed at daily training, while the King Pro Boxing Stormking or the Elite Lab backpack are perfect for cycling or public transport. We take out the gloves and wraps as soon as we return to let them dry: if left damp, they develop bacteria and bad odours.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you put on boxing wraps?

Pass the loop around your thumb, wrap three or four times around your wrist, cross between your fingers, then around the knuckles, and finish at the wrist before securing the Velcro. The hand should be able to close without numbness.

Leather or synthetic for striking targets?

Leather withstands repeated punches better and develops a patina over time, with regular maintenance. Synthetic, lighter and easier to clean, is sufficient for club use or occasional sessions.

How to clean boxing wraps?

In the machine at thirty degrees, in a wash net so they don’t get tangled, then air dry. Roll them up starting with the Velcro, so they are ready for the next session in the right direction.

How high should a speed bag be set?

The bottom of the bag should be at mouth or chin height of the boxer in guard. Too high, it unnecessarily tires the shoulders; too low, it forces downward strikes and distorts the action.

Wraps or inner gloves for beginners?

Padded inner gloves, like the Kwon, slip on in seconds and are suitable for group classes. Wraps provide better wrist support for strong punches on the bag and quickly become essential as training intensifies.
