About Muay Thai Gloves


Muay Thai gloves are designed specifically for the demands of clinching,
blocking, and close-range striking. Unlike traditional boxing gloves,
they feature a shorter cuff for increased wrist mobility and padding
distributed across the glove to protect both the knuckles and the back
of the hand.


These features make Muay Thai gloves ideal for pad work, bag training,
and sparring. If you’re unsure how they compare to boxing gloves, read

How to Choose the Correct Glove Weight?

Selecting the right glove weight is essential for proper protection and effective training. Here’s a simple guide:

8–10oz

Light gloves with less padding. Best for padwork, bagwork, and fast technical training. Not suitable for sparring.

12oz

A good all-round training glove. Balanced padding and weight. Ideal if you only want one pair for general use.

14oz

A step up in padding. Suitable for light sparring and partner drills while still usable on pads and bags.

16oz

The standard for sparring. Offers the most padding to keep both you and your training partners safe.

Quick recommendation:


  • For pad/bag work: 8–12oz

  • For mixed training: 12–14oz

  • For sparring: 16oz

  • Lighter fighters typically choose 10–12oz; heavier fighters 14–16oz.
Care & Maintenance

Proper care is essential for extending the life of your Muay Thai gloves.
After every training session, open your gloves and allow them to dry in a
well-ventilated area.


Using moisture-absorbing inserts can help prevent odor and bacteria buildup.
