The STING Elasticised Hand Wraps deliver dependable wrist stability and knuckle protection across boxing training, sparring, and amateur competition. Available in 3m and 4.5m lengths, these wraps suit a range of hand sizes and wrapping styles. As a brand trusted across the amateur boxing circuit, Sting produces hand wraps that hold firm through heavy sessions without losing their stretch or structure. Whether you are buying for yourself or stocking up a club, these wraps offer consistent performance at either length.
Construction & Materials
Constructed from an elasticised fabric blend, the STING hand wraps conform to the contours of the hand and wrist, maintaining tension without cutting off circulation. The elasticity ensures the wrap stays secure across knuckles, wrist, and thumb attachment points throughout a full session. A hook-and-loop thumb loop keeps the wrap anchored at the start of application, and a Velcro fastening secures the end once wrapped. The material is designed to withstand repeated washing without significant shrinkage or loss of stretch, making them practical for regular club use.
Who Is This For?
The 3m length suits juniors, fighters with smaller hands, or those who prefer a straightforward wrapping method focused on basic wrist support. The 4.5m option is better suited to adult boxers with larger hands, those who wrap with extra knuckle passes, or anyone who wants full wrist and hand coverage comparable to what many coaches recommend for bag work and sparring. Both lengths work across skill levels — from beginners learning how to wrap hands for boxing through to experienced amateurs competing at club level who need reliable boxing wrist support every session.

The Sting Competition Light Groin Guard is designed for boxers who need reliable protection without sacrificing movement. Built around a handcrafted, pre-curved mould and a durable SLV3 outer skin, it offers an increased cross-sectional protective profile in a slimline, lightweight shell. As the official equipment supplier to World Boxing, Sting engineers competition kit to strict performance standards — this groin guard reflects that pedigree from the construction outward.
Construction & Materials
The Competition Light Groin Guard uses Sting's SLV3 outer skin, a durable material chosen for its performance under competition conditions. The inner mould is handcrafted and pre-curved to follow natural body contours, providing an increased cross-sectional protective profile without adding unnecessary bulk. Elasticated leg straps keep the guard firmly in position throughout rounds, eliminating shift during movement. The slimline construction prioritises agility — the guard stays close to the body rather than sitting proud, reducing interference with footwork and lateral movement.
Who Is This For?
The Sting Competition Light Groin Guard suits amateur and competitive boxers who need protection that meets competition standards without restricting movement in the ring. If you train regularly on the bags and pads and step into the ring for amateur bouts, this guard is built for that exact use case. The elasticated leg strap system and lightweight mould make it equally practical for sparring sessions where comfort over extended rounds matters. Sting groin guard sizing queries are common — the guard is available in standard sizing, so check the Sting size guide before ordering if you are between sizes.

Available in 10oz through 16oz, they suit a wide range of weights and training styles. As the official equipment supplier to World Boxing, Sting brings competition-level engineering to everyday gym use.
Construction & Materials
The Armalite is built on Sting's SLV3 construction, a durable synthetic leather shell engineered to resist cracking and surface wear through heavy training cycles. Inside, the Hi Flow Core padding system provides layered impact absorption that manages force on both the bag and your training partners. The standout feature is the three-inch wrist strap, which wraps wide across the wrist to deliver a secure, snug fit with strong wrist stability during every jab, hook, and cross. Reinforced stitching at the thumb and seam points reduces wear at the most common failure areas.
Who Is This For?
The Sting Armalite suits beginner to intermediate boxers training three or more times per week who want a single glove that handles everything without switching pairs. It works equally well for fitness boxers stepping into technical training, club-level amateurs preparing for competition, and experienced fighters who need a durable second pair for bag rounds.

Construction & Materials

The Sting Arma Junior Boxing Gloves are designed specifically for young boxers, not scaled-down adult gloves. Sting — the official equipment supplier to World Boxing — have engineered a smaller, lighter glove that gives children improved control on the bag and pads without compromising on hand protection. Available in 6oz, the Arma Junior is one of the few dedicated kids boxing gloves on the market built to a genuine competition standard.
Construction & Materials
The Arma Junior uses a durable synthetic leather outer that resists surface wear through repeated sessions on the bag and pads. Inside, high-density foam padding provides superior shock absorption to minimise the risk of hand injuries — essential at a stage when young fighters are still developing punching mechanics. The glove is sized and shaped around a child's hand, giving a snug, controlled fit rather than the loose feel of an adult glove in a small size. A secure hook-and-loop closure keeps the glove firmly in place throughout training.
Who Is This For?
The Arma Junior is built for young boxers taking their first steps in boxing or Muay Thai, including kids at boxing clubs, school programmes, and recreational fitness classes. At 6oz, the glove suits smaller hands and lighter frames — young beginners who need protection without bulk. Parents looking for kids boxing gloves that are purpose-built rather than generic will find the Arma Junior a reliable choice.

As the official equipment supplier to World Boxing, STING understands what fighters need from their ringwear — and the Mettle Singlet 2.0 delivers a clean, athletic cut that moves with you rather than against you.
Construction & Materials
The Mettle Singlet 2.0 is made from 100% polyester interlock — a fabric chosen for its durability, flexibility, and resistance to wear under repeated training use. The interlock weave provides a smooth, close surface that reduces friction and keeps its structure session after session. The athletic cut is tailored to allow unrestricted shoulder and arm movement, which is critical during combinations and defensive work. There are no restrictive seams across the torso, giving the singlet a clean competition silhouette that meets standard amateur boxing presentation.
Who Is This For?

It works equally well for sparring sessions and technical training where fighters want a vest that stays in place and doesn't interfere with movement.

Built around STING's Neo Gel Technology, the Viper X distributes impact evenly across the pad surface, reducing hand fatigue during extended sessions. The unique pad shape maximises the strike area while keeping weight low, giving trainers better control and fighters a more precise target — the combination that serious boxing pad work demands.
Construction & Materials
The Viper X uses a durable synthetic leather outer that resists surface wear across heavy training cycles. Inside, a multi-layer foam system handles impact absorption, backed by STING's Neo Gel Technology — engineered to disperse strike force evenly and reduce the jarring that builds up through long pad-holding sessions.

The unique curved profile maximises the usable strike area without adding unnecessary bulk.
Who Is This For?

The Sting Viper-X Boxing Boot 2.0 is Sting's performance footwear for boxers who train seriously and compete with intent. As the official equipment supplier to World Boxing, Sting designs boots that meet the demands of canvas and gym floor alike. The Viper-X 2.0 improves on its predecessor with a refined construction that balances ankle support, breathability, and freedom of movement — making it one of the most capable boxing boots in its category.
Construction & Materials
The Viper-X 2.0 is built around an open-weave mesh upper that promotes airflow during extended training sessions. Welded thermoplastic overlays on both the medial and lateral sides add structural support without adding weight, helping the boot hold its shape under lateral movement. The ¾-height cut strikes a balance between ankle protection and mobility. Underfoot, a lightweight outsole delivers reliable grip on canvas and gym floors, allowing smooth pivots and transitions without feeling restrictive or sticky.
Who Is This For?
The Sting Viper-X 2.0 suits boxers from intermediate club level through to competitive amateur and professional use. If you train multiple sessions per week on gym floors or compete on canvas, the boot's outsole and ankle support make it a versatile choice across both environments. The ¾-cut design appeals to fighters who find high-top boots too restrictive but want more ankle coverage than a low-profile shoe offers. Lighter, quicker fighters who rely on footwork and ring movement will find the Viper-X 2.0 particularly well suited to their style.

The STING Orion Gel Open Face Head Guard is built for boxers who want serious protection without the tunnel vision of a full-face design. STING — the official equipment supplier to World Boxing — developed the Orion around their Neo Gel padding system, which manages strike energy more effectively than standard foam alone. If you train regularly and need boxing headgear that covers the brow, chin, and temple without restricting sightlines, the Orion is a considered choice from a brand with genuine competition credentials.
Construction & Materials
The Orion is constructed around STING's Neo Gel padding system, a material engineered for advanced strike energy management and shock absorption beyond what conventional multi-layer foam provides. The anatomical shaping distributes padding precisely across the brow, chin, and temple — the areas most exposed in sparring. The open-face design incorporates a breathable construction that allows air to circulate freely during rounds, reducing heat build-up inside the guard. The overall build reflects STING's competition-level manufacturing standards applied to a training headguard.
Who Is This For?
The STING Orion suits intermediate to advanced boxers who spar regularly and want a headguard that prioritises protection at the brow, chin, and temple without compromising visibility. The open-face format makes it particularly well-suited to technical sparring where reading your opponent's movement matters as much as absorbing shots. It works across weight classes and is a strong option for club fighters, amateur competitors, and coaches looking for reliable boxing headgear for their athletes. Available in black, it fits gym use, bag-to-sparring sessions, and structured training environments alike.

The STING Women's Kinetic Chest Protector is built specifically for female boxers — not adapted from a unisex design, but engineered from the ground up for female anatomy. As the official equipment supplier to World Boxing and a recognised presence at the Olympics, STING understands what female competitors actually need: contoured protective panels, a body-hugging racerback shape, and materials that hold up through training and competition alike. Whether you train regularly at a club or compete at amateur level, this is the chest guard built for the demands of real boxing.
Construction & Materials
The Kinetic uses moulded cups with lightweight impact-absorbing foam padding, shaped to follow the contours of the upper body rather than sitting flat against it. The racerback design keeps the protector stable during movement, while thick straps distribute weight evenly and prevent shifting mid-round. The outer fabric uses a breathable, interlocking weave that wicks sweat and dries quickly — key for multiple training sessions or back-to-back competition bouts. The sleek, second-skin fit means the protector moves with the body rather than against it.
Who Is This For?
The STING Women's Kinetic Chest Protector suits female boxers at every level — from those training at a club for the first time to experienced amateurs competing under World Boxing rules. It is the right choice for sparring sessions where chest protection is required, for technical pad work, and for competition use. Female boxers do wear chest protection in amateur bouts, and the Kinetic meets those demands. It also works across other combat sports where a female chest protector is required, including kickboxing and martial arts. Lightweight fighters and heavier competitors alike benefit from the contoured fit and stable racerback construction.
