Fairtex headguards are sized by head circumference in centimetres — four sizes (S, M, L, XL) cover the full adult range. A correctly-sized headguard sits firm without rocking and the eye gap aligns with your line of sight when you tuck your chin.
Fairtex Headguard Size Chart
Measure your head circumference around the widest point — just above the eyebrows and ears, around the back of the skull.
| Size | Head Circumference (cm) |
|---|---|
| S | up to 50 |
| M | 50 – 52 |
| L | 52 – 54 |
| XL | 54 – 56 |
How to measure
- Use a soft tape measure (or a piece of string you can then measure flat).
- Wrap the tape around the widest part of your head — about one finger above the eyebrows and across the bump at the back of the skull.
- Keep the tape level. Record the figure in centimetres.
- If you train with a thick beanie or compression cap under your headguard, add 1 cm to your measurement and pick the next size up.
Fairtex headguard model fit notes
- HG13, HG10 Super Sparring: traditional Muay Thai cut with chin and cheek protection — strap adjusts within each size band for a precise fit.
- HG18 Mexican Sparring Headguard: closer-fitting boxing-style guard with a higher eye gap — sizes run on the snug end of the chart, size up if you're between two figures.
- Headguards stretch slightly with use as the foam compresses — pick a snug fit out of the box rather than a loose one that will get sloppy after 20 sessions.

The Fairtex HG13 Diagonal Vision Sparring Headguard is designed around clear diagonal sightlines, so you can see strikes coming while staying fully protected. A padded top guards against axe kicks, elbows and knees, with a hard outer shell over a soft, comfortable interior.
A curved, padded chin bar shields the throat and jaw without getting in the way, making it a confident choice for heavy sparring.
Main Features:
- Diagonal vision design for clear sightlines
