Headgear and Head Protection

Protecting your head during sparring and competition is non-negotiable. Our range of boxing protective gear includes precision-engineered head protection designed to absorb and distribute impact effectively, keeping you sharp and confident in the ring. Whether you are preparing for your first amateur bout or training at professional level, the right boxing head guard can help reduce cuts and bruising while preserving your field of vision. Headgear should not be relied on to prevent concussion or other brain injury.

Every piece of head protection in our collection is built using high-density foams and durable synthetic leathers that withstand sustained use. Adjustable closures and ergonomic designs ensure a secure, personalised fit so you can focus entirely on your boxing.

Mouth Guards and Jaw Protection

A quality boxing mouth guard is one of the most critical pieces of protective boxing equipment you will ever invest in. Our selection features single-layer and multi-layer designs that shield your teeth, gums and jaw from the force of heavy sparring. Boil-and-bite fitting technology allows you to mould a precise shape around your dental profile for maximum comfort and retention.

A properly fitted mouth guard helps reduce dental and oral injuries; it should not be relied on to prevent concussion. From entry-level options for beginners to professional-grade guards trusted in competition, our range covers every requirement.

Hand Wraps and Wrist Support

Your hands are your primary tools, and protecting the small bones, tendons and ligaments across your knuckles and wrists is essential for longevity in the sport. Our boxing protection range includes traditional cotton wraps, semi-elastic wraps and gel-padded inner gloves, each engineered to stabilise the wrist joint and cushion the knuckle line under repeated impact.

Consistent wrapping technique paired with durable materials prevents common injuries like boxer's fracture and ligament strain. Whether you favour the classic method of hand wrapping or prefer the convenience of slip-on alternatives, you will find performance-focused options here.

Groin Guards and Body Protection

Body protection is often overlooked until you take a stray low blow in sparring.Our groin guards and body protectors deliver the durable, shock-absorbing coverage that serious fighters demand.Anatomically shaped cups sit securely within reinforced shells, while elasticated waistbands provide a stable, comfortable fit that stays in place through intense movement.

Beyond groin protection, our range also includes chest guards and abdominal protectors suited to both male and female fighters. High-density foam layering across each piece ensures reliable energy dispersion, giving you the confidence to commit fully to every session and every round.

Frequently asked questions

More about choosing and using your gear.

What protective gear do I need for boxing?

At a minimum, you need a head guard, mouth guard, hand wraps and a groin guard. Boxing gloves are also essential.

The specific requirements may vary depending on your gym's rules, your level and whether you are training or competing.

Do I need headgear for sparring?

Most boxing gyms in the UK require headgear for sparring sessions regardless of your experience level. In amateur competition under World Boxing rules, headgear requirements differ between male and female divisions. Always check your club's policies and the specific competition regulations before stepping into the ring.

What size mouth guard do I need for boxing?

Mouth guards are typically available in junior and senior sizes. Many models use boil-and-bite technology, which lets you mould the guard to your teeth for a custom fit. If you are between sizes, choose the larger option and trim if needed. A properly fitted guard should feel secure without restricting your breathing.

How do I wrap my hands for boxing?

Start by looping the wrap around your thumb, then wind it around your wrist several times for support. Next, wrap across the knuckles, weave between each finger and return to the wrist. Finish by securing the closure. The wrap should feel snug and supportive without cutting off circulation or restricting hand movement.

Do I need a groin guard for boxing training?

Yes, a groin guard is strongly recommended for any sparring or contact work. Accidental low blows happen frequently, and the impact without protection can cause serious injury. Most gyms mandate groin guards during sparring.

What protective gear do I need for amateur boxing competition?

For amateur boxing competition in the UK, you typically need a World Boxing approved head guard, a fitted mouth guard, hand wraps beneath your gloves and a groin guard. Female competitors also require a chest protector. Always verify the exact requirements with your governing body before competition day to ensure full compliance.
