Boxing Glove Sizing Guide
SMAI boxing gloves, unless specified as ‘Kids’, are all intended for adult use. Unless you have an exceptionally large hand circumference (greater than 9.5”) you should be able to comfortably insert your hand with wrap into any SMAI boxing gloves. When considering boxing gloves, you should be purchasing according to your intended use case. We recommend the use of hand wraps or quick wraps with all gloves. Not only do they provide protection and stability, they can provide additional width in the glove, if you find your glove is a little big for your hand. With this method, you can select the appropriate glove weight for your activity, and use wraps to get optimal fit.
Choose glove weight for right use + hand wraps = The Perfect Fit & Glove
How to choose the right boxing glove?
Generally we recommend heavier gloves for sparring and general training / Cardio (16oz), a medium weight for bag training, drilling and pad work (14-12oz), and a lighter weight for competition (10oz& 8oz). Use case should be the primary selection criteria. Heavier gloves contain more padding then lighter gloves, while the sizing stays relatively similar.
| Glove Weight | Use Type | |
| 8oz | Competition | |
| 10oz | Competition | |
| 12oz | Bag Training, Drills & Pad Work | |
| 14oz | Bag Training, Drills & Pad Work | |
| 16oz | General Training and Cardio Work |
