Care Tips

Always air out your gloves after training. Use glove deodorisers to keep them fresh. Never leave them in your gym bag — moisture breaks down the foam and lining. A well-cared-for pair of gloves should last 1-2 years of regular training.

Select Your Style: From Fitness to the Pro Ranks

Finding the right pair of boxing gloves in Australia depends entirely on your training volume and intensity. We’ve categorised our collection to help you buy boxing gloves that match your specific needs:

  • Training & Bag Gloves: Designed with high-density foam to withstand thousands of impacts on the heavy bag without "bottoming out."
  • Sparring Gloves: Softer, oversized gloves (usually 16oz) engineered to protect both your hands and your training partner’s face.
  • Professional Fight Gloves: Sleek, lace-up designs that offer a compact profile and maximum power transfer for competition.
  • Fitness Boxing: Entry-level, breathable options perfect for box-fit classes and cardio-heavy sessions.
Frequently asked questions

Glove size is determined by the weight of the padding (measured in ounces). For general bag work and fitness, 10oz or 12oz are standard. If you are sparring, 16oz is almost universally required in Australian gyms to ensure safety. Heavier hitters (over 90kg) may even opt for 18oz for extra protection.

If you train alone, Velcro (Hook & Loop) gloves are the best choice as you can put them on and take them off easily. Lace-up gloves provide a more secure, "custom" fit around the wrist, but they typically require a coach or partner to tie them for you.

A high-quality leather glove used 3-4 times a week should last 1 to 2 years. Synthetic or "vinyl" gloves often wear out faster (6-12 months) under heavy use. If the padding feels flat or you can feel your knuckles hitting the bag, it’s time to buy boxing gloves to replace them.

Yes, always. Hand wraps are not for your knuckles; they are designed to secure the many small bones in your hand and support your wrist. Wearing wraps also helps absorb sweat, which extends the life of your boxing gloves online.
