The 8 Weapons boxing glove range — Big 8 Premium, Premium, Classic, Unlimited, Unlimited 2.0, Hit, Pure, Shift, Sak Yant, Three Elephants 2.0, Cut Like a Blade and the Joe/Jenny/Jipe kids line — uses standard Muay Thai ounce sizing. All adult gloves are 10oz to 16oz; kids gloves are 6oz to 8oz. The weight controls padding, fist load and sparring suitability.
Fit tip: Most UK gyms require 14oz or 16oz minimum for partner sparring. 10oz and 12oz are bag and pad work weights. If you want one pair for everything, buy 16oz — they work across the full training spectrum.
| Weight | Bodyweight guide | Best use |
|---|---|---|
| 6oz | Kids under 8 years | Kids bag/pad work |
| 8oz | Kids 8-13 years | Kids pad and light bag work |
| 10oz | Under 60kg (132lb) | Bag and pad work, competition |
| 12oz | 60-70kg (132-155lb) | Bag, pad and light sparring |

How to measure
- Activity: Match weight to use — heavier oz = more padding = more protection in sparring.
- Hand wraps: 8 Weapons gloves are cut to fit comfortably over 4m hand wraps. If you wear unusually bulky wraps, allow one weight up for fit.
- Gym policy: Always check your gym's minimum sparring glove weight before buying.

Engineered to handle heavy bag work, hard pads and longer sparring rounds, the 8 Weapons Big 8 Premium Boxing Gloves in Black/Black combine ultra-thick premium leather with rock-solid construction. The result is a glove that protects the hand without the bulk and weight that ruins your speed.
Designed for fighters who train across boxing, Muay Thai and kickboxing, the Big 8 Premium balances dense foam padding for genuine impact absorption with a streamlined silhouette that lets you keep your hands up. A reinforced internal handle bar gives you something to grip when you make a fist, and the wide hook-and-loop closure locks the wrist down through hard combinations.
