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.

8 Weapons Pure Boxing Gloves Black/White
Substantial palm padding meets durable synthetic-leather construction in the 8 Weapons Pure Boxing Gloves Black/White — a hands-on training glove built for fighters who want a partner-friendly profile without the premium leather price tag. The clean black-and-white colourway keeps the look classic; the construction underneath delivers the kind of impact absorption you actually need during bag work and partner drills.
The Pure series is shaped around a substantial palm pad that makes partner padwork comfortable for the holder, plus generous front padding that helps protect against black eyes during sparring. The wide hook-and-loop wrist closure delivers a snug, reliable fit, while reinforced seams handle punishing workouts. A water-repellent inner lining helps keep the gloves in shape through sweat-heavy sessions, and the securely sewn thumb is positioned to prevent twists on heavier shots.
Main features:
- Hand-finished in Thailand from durable synthetic leather with reinforced seams
- Substantial palm pad for comfortable partner pad-holding
- Generous front padding for impact absorption during sparring
- Wide hook-and-loop wrist closure for a snug, supportive fit
- Water-repellent inner lining keeps gloves in shape through sweaty sessions
- Available in four sizes from 10oz to 16oz to suit pad work through sparring
