Questions
What is 'Paper Leather'?
'Paper Leather' is a high-grade material selected by Mavinn for its distinct surface texture, balanced weight, and tactile response, offering a unique alternative to traditional leather.
Are these gloves suitable for sparring?
The 12 oz option can be used for light sparring, but for heavy sparring or competition, gloves with more padding and weight (e.g., 14 oz or 16 oz) are generally recommended for increased protection for both partners.
How do I care for 'Paper Leather' gloves?
While specific care instructions are not provided, it is generally recommended to wipe them clean with a damp cloth after use, allow them to air dry completely, and avoid harsh chemicals or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to preserve the material's unique qualities.
What is the difference between 10 oz and 12 oz gloves?
10 oz gloves are typically used for pad work, speed drills, and light bag work, offering less bulk and faster hand speed. 12 oz gloves provide slightly more padding and are suitable for general training, bag work, and light sparring.
Are these gloves authentic Thai-made?
