Buy MMA Gloves – We’re Happy to Advise You!
Are you looking for new MMA gloves? We’ve put together a small Q&A guide to help you choose the right pair. Fortunately, selecting the right MMA gloves is not as complicated as choosing boxing gloves, where you need to consider more factors. Always remember that MMA gloves require proper care—nothing damages them faster than moisture. Keep your gloves dry at all times. You should always wear hand wraps underneath your gloves. After training, remove them from your gym bag immediately and let them dry. MMA gloves are open-fingered, which makes drying easier. Moisture, such as sweat, can quickly damage the padding.
Here are our questions with answer options:
How often do you train MMA with your gloves?
- Only 1–2 times per week, light training: In this case, you can choose basic gloves from the lower price range. Your demands are not extremely high, and affordable gloves will provide sufficient protection. Take a look at the Venum MMA Gloves Challenger.
- 3–4 times per week: You should consider investing a bit more and choosing a good pair starting at around €50. Your training intensity is higher, and your MMA gloves need to withstand more stress. You might opt for leather gloves, which are more durable than synthetic leather and generally last longer. However, they also require more care to ensure long-term performance.
- More than 4 times per week: You’re a high performer and should go for top-quality MMA gloves. You train more than most and use your gloves intensively for striking, grappling, and pad work. Leather MMA gloves should be your standard choice. You should also consider getting a good pair of boxing gloves for sparring—which, of course, you can find in our KHUNPON shop as well.
What Types of MMA Gloves Are Available?
There are essentially two types: MMA gloves for training and MMA gloves for sparring. Standard MMA training gloves usually weigh 4 ounces and have minimal padding. The fingers are open so you can grip and control effectively during grappling. They are available with or without a thumb section—this depends on your personal preference. For MMA sparring, you can choose thicker sparring gloves or regular boxing gloves. The extra padding makes exchanges more comfortable and reduces injuries—or at least minimizes visible marks when things get intense during sparring.
What Size Do You Need?
There is no universal sizing standard among manufacturers, so we can’t provide a one-size-fits-all answer. However, here’s a helpful tip: try on some of your training partners’ gloves to get a feel for the right size. This will give you a better understanding of what fits you best. You can also take advantage of our service and order different sizes to compare. In our MMA shop, you’ll find a wide variety of gloves in many sizes—there’s definitely a pair that’s right for you.
Additional Uses for MMA Gloves
You can wear MMA gloves for MMA training, but there are other applications as well. Some fighters prefer boxing with grappling gloves to develop a better punching feel. In Krav Maga, MMA gloves are often used because they allow flexible movement while still providing protection for knuckles and wrists. In recent years, Muay Thai competitions using free-fight style gloves have also become increasingly popular.
