Fairtex Boxing Gloves Size Guide
Fairtex boxing gloves are measured in ounces (oz). A higher oz means more padding and more weight — not a wider hand fit. Pick by bodyweight first, then check knuckle circumference if you're between options. Your gym's sparring rules can override the table — always check with your coach.
| Glove size | Bodyweight (lbs) | Bodyweight (kg) | Knuckle circumference (without wraps) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 oz / 6 oz | Under 80 | Under 37 | Under 5.5" |
| 8 oz | 80–112 | 37–50 | 5.5–6.5" |
| 10 oz | 112–132 | 50–60 | 6.5–7.5" |
| 12 oz | 132–165 | 60–75 | 7.5–8.5" |
| 14 oz | 165–190 | 75–86 | 8.5–9.5" |
| 16 oz | 190–205 | 86–92 | 8.5–9.5" |
How to choose your size
- Bag and pad work only? 12 oz or 14 oz is a comfortable all-rounder for most adults.
- Sparring? 16 oz is standard in most UK gyms. Some allow 14 oz for lighter boxers — confirm with your coach.
- Competition? 8 oz or 10 oz — minimal padding, not intended for long-term training.
- Larger hands? If your knuckle circumference is at the top of a band, size up one rung for a more comfortable fit.
- Wraps — most fighters wrap before training, which takes up internal volume. The chart shows circumference WITHOUT wraps.

Introducing the revolutionary Fairtex Glove Design - a true game-changer in the world of combat sports. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these gloves combine innovative shape and padding, similar to the renowned #BGV9 model, with the cutting-edge Micro Fibre material for the outer shell. Prepare to experience a consistent weight and unparalleled performance like never before.
Key Features:
- Unmatched Durability: The outer shell of these gloves is constructed with Micro Fibre, the same material used in the top-quality "MADDOX" grappling dummy. This ensures exceptional endurance and longevity, allowing you to unleash your full potential during intense training sessions.
- Supreme Flexibility and Odorless Comfort: Say goodbye to inferior alternatives. Unlike cheap PU or synthetic gloves, Fairtex uses only the finest materials. The Micro Fibre construction guarantees flexibility, adapting to your hand's movements effortlessly. Moreover, it remains odorless, maintaining a fresh and clean feel.
- High-Impact Latex Foam Core: Equipped with the innovative "High Impact" latex foam core system, these gloves deliver unrivaled protection and shock absorption. The multi-layered padding is strategically placed around the hitting area, ensuring even weight distribution from wrist to head of the gloves.
- Ergonomic Design for Optimal Performance: Designed with your comfort in mind, these gloves feature a contoured hand compartment and an attached curved-thumb design. These elements work in harmony to provide optimal fist closure, minimizing muscle tension and maximizing your punching power.
- Enhanced Wrist Support: Unlike the BGV1 model, these gloves boast a longer cuff, offering increased comfort and exceptional wrist support. Whether you're throwing powerful hooks or defending against strikes, you can trust these gloves to have your back.
- Ventilation at Its Finest: We understand the importance of airflow during rigorous training sessions. That's why these gloves are equipped with a grip bar and strategically placed holes on the inside thumb and above the grip bar. Experience enhanced ventilation, keeping your hands cool and dry throughout your workouts.
