Questions
What is 'semi-leather' and how does it compare to full leather?
Semi-leather is a composite material that combines real leather fibers with synthetic binders. It offers a good balance of durability, feel, and cost-effectiveness. While it provides a similar tactile experience to full leather, it may not match the extreme longevity or natural aging characteristics of pure full grain leather under the most rigorous, daily use.
How do I choose the right glove size (oz) for my training?
Glove size, measured in ounces (oz), typically correlates with your body weight and intended use. Lighter gloves (8-10oz) are often used for pad work and speed drills. Mid-range (12-14oz) are common for general training and bag work. Heavier gloves (16oz+) are standard for sparring to protect both you and your partner.
Are these gloves suitable for both Muay Thai and Western Boxing?
Yes, these gloves are designed with a versatile profile suitable for both Muay Thai and Western Boxing. Their focus on dexterity and comfort makes them effective for striking techniques across both disciplines.
How should I care for my semi-leather gloves?
To extend the life of your semi-leather gloves, always air them out after each use. Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed, then dry thoroughly. Avoid direct sunlight or extreme heat, which can cause the material to dry out and crack. Do not machine wash or submerge in water.
Are these gloves genuinely handmade in Thailand?
Yes, the OG Fightwear Supermax Boxing Gloves are explicitly stated to be handcrafted in Thailand, ensuring they adhere to traditional Thai manufacturing standards and quality.
