Better performance through the right material
Kickboxing is a combination of punches and kicks. The punch comes from English boxing and the pedaling is based on Karate. Boxing gloves can be used for punching. The gloves are divided into three levels: beginner, advanced and professional. Different types of material have been used for each level. The quality of the material is equal to the height of the level. The higher the level, the higher the quality of the material. Thus, for the beginners and advanced use of PU artificial leather (Polyurethane) and for the professional there are leather gloves available.

Attenuation and stability
In addition to the right material, sufficient damping and stability is also important. Giving a punch should not cause damage to your own fists. The damping is important for this. The foam layer in the gloves ensures that the blow is absorbed. In addition to the damping, a stable wrist is very important. The wrists need sufficient stability, so that no injuries are caused by the impact. The band at the height of the wrist provides additional support and can be adjusted as desired. In addition to the closure, use can also be made of an inside glove or bandage. These offer extra protection to the fists and wrists.
