Frequently Asked Questions
Boxing bag gloves are designed exclusively for heavy bags, speed bags and pad training so that boxers can use their punches and become accustomed to the impact. Sparring gloves, on the other hand, absorb shock and have extra padding to protect both the fighter and their sparring partner.
While experienced boxers may sometimes use regular boxing gloves on punching bags, we strongly advise against this. Your hand is made up of 27 bones and 28 muscles. Its fragility thus renders it susceptible to injury from a lack of adequate wrist support and knuckle protection. Wrist injuries can take a very long time to heal and hinder a boxer’s career. Therefore, we recommend investing in a pair of high-quality boxing bag gloves.
We recommend using boxing bag gloves that are 12oz and below for hitting heavy bags or pads. Boxing bag gloves are smaller and lighter, allowing you to throw punches much faster without sacrificing hand protection. If you feel you would benefit from a glove that offers more comfort while performing a heavy bag workout, we recommend moving up to a heavier ounce to secure extra padding and protection for your hands.
Boxing bag gloves are specifically designed for use on punching bags and are ideal for anyone incorporating boxing into their fitness routine. These gloves feature extra padding to protect your hands from the impact of repeated strikes against the bag. While they aren’t suitable for sparring due to the lack of protective features for your opponent, they’re perfect for bag work. Most are easy to slip on and off, often using a wrap-around closure for added convenience. Although some boxers train bare-knuckled to toughen their hands, wearing bag gloves reduces the risk of injury and allows for longer, more effective training sessions.
At Geezers Boxing, our range includes trusted brands like Phenom and Probox, available in various sizes from 8 oz to 16 oz to suit different training needs and preferences.
