How to Choose the Right Protective Gear for Boxing

Protective gear is essential for safe, confident boxing training. Whether you’re sparring, hitting the bags or practising partner drills, the right protection helps prevent avoidable injuries and supports long-term development. Boxing is a demanding sport, and proper equipment ensures you can train more consistently, with fewer setbacks, and with greater confidence in your technique.

Headgear (Head Guards)

Headgear protects you during sparring by reducing impact forces and preventing cuts, swelling and accidental clashes of heads. A good head guard should offer strong padding, secure fit, good visibility and reliable comfort over longer rounds. Options include open face, cheek protection and full-face designs depending on your experience and training intensity.

Mouthguards (Gum Shields)

A properly fitted mouthguard is essential for protecting the teeth, gums and jaw. Boxing mouthguards absorb shock and reduce the risk of dental injury during sparring and drills. Choose from boil-and-bite models for convenience or premium moulded options for superior fit. Both adult and junior sizes are available for safe training at any level.

Hand Wraps & Boxing Tape

Hand wraps protect the small bones and ligaments in your hands by stabilising the wrist and supporting the knuckles during impact. They are vital for bag work, pad sessions and sparring. Choose between traditional cotton wraps, elastic Mexican wraps, or professional fight tape and gauze for maximum wrist security during higher-intensity training.

Groin Guards

Groin guards provide essential protection against low-impact shots during sparring. A well-fitted groin guard should offer secure cup placement, strong shock absorption and freedom of movement. Both male and female protectors are available, designed to fit comfortably under shorts without restricting movement.
