Description

Features
- Rated best in its price category by The Fight Company
- Three foam layers for excellent impact protection
- Wear-resistant synthetic leather for long-lasting use
- Reinforced seams for extra durability

Use
The Caged Shadow is designed for all combat sports that use gloves with a fixed thumb and firm padding:
- Boxing – technical training, pad work and sparring
- Kickboxing – combination training and bag work
- Muay Thai – pad work, clinch work and striking drills
- K-1 training – conditioning and technique building
- Fitness boxing and group classes
Its versatility makes it suitable for solo bag training as well as partner work and light sparring.
Material and construction
The exterior is made from wear-resistant synthetic leather with a matte finish — a choice that delivers a professional look that will not wear down or turn glossy quickly. The three inner foam layers spread impact evenly across the knuckles and hand, helping to prevent injuries and extend the life of your hands. The reinforced seams keep the glove in shape and sturdy even with intensive daily use.
Closure and fit
The sturdy hook-and-loop closure lets you put the glove on quickly and precisely. The wide closure surface supports the wrist, which is essential to prevent wrist injuries when punching. The fixed thumb keeps your thumb in the correct, protected position with every punch.
Size advice
The Shadow is available in four weights. Use the guide below to choose the right size:
- 10 oz – suitable for lighter boxers, women and youth; ideal for pad and technique work
- 12 oz – versatile choice for women and lighter men for bag and pad training
- 14 oz – popular all-round size for regular training and light sparring
- 16 oz – the standard for sparring and heavier boxers
Torn between two sizes? Choose the heavier option if you mainly spar, and the lighter option if you mostly do technique and speed work.
Who is it for?
These boxing gloves are an excellent choice for both beginner and advanced fighters. For beginners they offer the right mix of protection, quality and affordability to start training on the right foundation. For advanced athletes they are a reliable all-round glove for daily training, or as a second pair in the bag. The price/quality ratio also makes them suitable for gyms looking to buy gloves for their members.
Frequently asked questions
Which sports are these Caged boxing gloves suitable for?
The Shadow is suitable for all combat sports that use gloves with a fixed thumb and firm padding, such as boxing, kickboxing and Muay Thai.
Are these gloves suitable for a beginner?
Absolutely. Thanks to the excellent price/quality ratio, they are ideal for beginners, while advanced athletes appreciate the combination of protection and durability the Shadow offers.
Care
Let the gloves air-dry after every training session, out of direct sunlight. Wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth and store them in a well-ventilated space to prevent odours and bacterial growth. Using a glove deodorizer helps keep the inside extra fresh.

Boxing Gloves Size Chart
Choose based on your hand circumference (without bandages) and body weight.
| Body Weight | Hand Circumference | Recommended Size (oz) |
|---|---|---|
| < 40 kg | < 14 cm | 4 & 6 oz |
| 40 – 50 kg | 14 – 16.5 cm | 8 oz |
| 50 – 60 kg | 16.5 – 19 cm | 10 oz |
| 60 – 75 kg | 19 – 21.5 cm | 12 oz |
| 75 – 85 kg | 21.5 – 24 cm | 14 oz |
| 85 – 100 kg | 24 – 26.5 cm | 16 oz |
| > 100 kg | > 26.5 cm | 16 & 18 oz |
Tip: for sparring, 14 – 16 oz is often used (or 16 & 18 oz for higher weight classes or sensitive sparring partners). For pads/bags, you can choose a lighter weight for more speed.
How to measure your hand circumference?
Use a flexible measuring tape around your hand just below the knuckles (excluding the thumb and without bandages). Measure snugly but not tightly.

Are you in doubt between two sizes? Choose based on hand circumference (more important than weight).
Do you usually wear bandages? If you are on the border, choose the larger oz size.
For technical sparring sessions or sensitive sparring partners: 16 & 18 oz.
Pay attention to brand and series: some models are more compact or roomier – check the product description.

Bought new Twins boxing gloves today. Excellent help from a staff member, gave good advice and I could try everything at my own pace. Had a nice chat with the owner too, friendly helpful people and a well-maintained shop!!!

Top service!
Compliments on the customer service! Accidentally received 2 right inner gloves, these things happen. One day after my email to customer service I received a new set straight away! Super good service
Very helpful staff. They take their time to help you and are knowledgeable.
Helped well and very satisfied with my purchase!
I used the smelly boxing gloves from the gym. And because I really enjoy hitting a punching bag. Looking for my own pair of gloves. That's how I found Fight Company. Friendly help. Tried them on and felt the difference between the brands. Spent a bit more than expected but happy with my purchase.
I visited The Fight Company in person because I was looking for new training gear. I was helped excellently by Amine. He took the time to clearly explain the differences between the different gloves and what they're best used for. I was also able to try on several models, which helped me make a good choice.
Ultimately I chose the Olive Green Twins gloves, a Twins head guard and a nice Venum gym bag. The service was friendly, professional and honest. A neat shop with lots of expertise. Compliments to Amine and the team!
