Use this guide to size your Hayabusa boxing gloves correctly. Fit is determined by hand circumference; glove weight (oz) is chosen for your body weight and intended training use. The same chart applies to the T3, T3D, S4, E1 and Marvel/Star Wars Hayabusa boxing-glove ranges sold at Made4Fighters — these all share Hayabusa's standard adult fit.
How to measure your hand
- Take a flexible tape measure and wrap it around your dominant hand at the knuckles (the widest part), with the tape level and your hand relaxed and open.
- Do not include the thumb in the measurement.
- If you are between two sizes, try both — most fighters prefer the snugger size for a more responsive feel under wraps.
Hand circumference to glove size
| Size | Hand circumference |
|---|---|
| S | 6.0 – 7.5 in (15 – 19 cm) |
| M | 7.5 – 8.5 in (19 – 22 cm) |
| L | 8.5 – 9.5 in (22 – 24 cm) |
| XL | 9.5 in + (24 cm +) |
Glove weight (oz) by body weight
| Body weight | Recommended glove weight |
|---|---|
| Under 120 lb (54 kg) | 10 oz |
| 120 – 150 lb (54 – 68 kg) | 12 oz |
| 150 – 175 lb (68 – 79 kg) | 14 oz |
| 175 – 200 lb (79 – 91 kg) | 16 oz |
| 200 lb + (91 kg +) | 18 – 20 oz |
Glove weight by training use
- Bag work and pad work: 10 – 14 oz for responsive feedback on the bag and a faster glove. The Hayabusa T3D and S4 ranges are common bag picks.
- Sparring: 14 – 16 oz for most adults; 16 – 18 oz for heavier fighters. Sparring gloves should absorb shock for your partner, not just protect you. The T3 and E1 Sparring lines are designed for this.
- Competition: follow the rules of your governing body — typically 8 – 10 oz for professional bouts and 10 – 12 oz for amateur. Always check before fight night.
Notes
- If you are buying your first pair, prioritise the right weight for sparring before chasing a lighter bag glove — the heavier pair earns its keep first.
- Bodyweight is a starting point, not the rule. If you punch hard or are training for sparring you can move up one oz; lighter recreational users can move down.
