FIND YOUR GLOVE SIZE
Boxing is a game of precision, and your gloves play a pivotal role in your performance. That's why finding the right size glove is crucial. At Everlast, we offer six different glove sizes to ensure you can find the perfect fit.
GLOVE SIZING GUIDE
It's all about ounces, not size. More ounces means more padding, less speed, and can make it harder to keep your hands up. Fewer ounces means less padding, more speed. Heavy bag work? Go lighter for speed. Sparring? Go heavier to protect you and your partner.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GLOVES
BAG GLOVES (10-12 oz)
Extra knuckle padding for heavy bag damage, and light enough to keep pad work quick without losing technique.
Training Gloves (12-14 oz)
The one-glove solution, ideal for beginners or an all-rounder, letting you move between heavy bag work and light partner drills.
Sparring Gloves (16 oz)
Soften impact on both fighters, mainly used for sparring.

MEASURING YOUR HAND
We've created a simple guide to help you measure the size of your hand using a piece of string.
Step 1: Get a piece of string
Find a flexible, non-stretchy piece of string. This will be used to measure your hand.
Step 2: Position your hand
Open your hand and extend your fingers, keeping them together. Lay your hand flat on a surface.
Step 3: Measure your hand
Place one end of the string at the base of your thumb (where your thumb joins your hand). Wrap the string around the back of your hand, over the knuckles and back to the starting point at the base of your thumb.

Step 4: Mark the string
Mark the point where the string meets the end that you held at the base of your thumb.
Step 5: Measure the string
Straighten the string and measure it against a ruler to find the circumference of your hand in centimeters.
Step 6: Match your Measurement to the Everlast Glove Sizes
Refer to the Everlast glove size chart to find your perfect fit. If your hand circumference is near the top of the size range, consider moving to the next size for a comfortable fit.

Remember, the perfect fit for your boxing gloves should be snug but not too tight. The gloves should provide enough room for your wraps and offer the right balance of comfort and support.
