This hybrid composition combines the stability of foam with the progressive shock dampening of gel — a construction you'll find in top-quality boxing gloves. The exterior is made from an ultra-soft elastic knit fabric that fits snugly around the hand without pinching, so the protection stays exactly on the knuckles where it belongs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knuckle guards are slipped directly onto the bare hand, similar to a fingerless glove. Then you wrap your hand wraps over them to keep everything in place, and finally put on your boxing gloves. The combination of knuckle guards + hand wraps + gloves provides a threefold protective layer around your knuckles and hand bones — the most complete protection you can build during training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSize guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knuckle guards are available in two size variants:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall \/ Medium\u003c\/strong\u003e – suitable for hand circumference approximately 17 – 21 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge \/ X-Large\u003c\/strong\u003e – suitable for hand circumference approximately 21 – 25 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure your hand circumference around the knuckles (without thumb) to determine the correct size. Unsure between two sizes? Choose the larger variant for extra comfort and space around the gel padding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor whom?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese knuckle guards are suitable for \u003cstrong\u003ebeginners, intermediate and experienced fighters\u003c\/strong\u003e. Beginners benefit from the extra protection while they are still learning how to punch correctly, while experienced fighters use them to spare their knuckles during high-volume training. Also ideal for fighters who regularly suffer from raw or sensitive knuckles, or who are recovering from previous hand injuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDifference with hand wraps and gel-padded gloves\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnuckle guards are a supplement to — not a replacement for — hand wraps. Hand wraps stabilise your wrists and the structure of your hand, while knuckle guards provide targeted extra impact absorption on the most stressed areas. For fighters who train intensively or have sensitive knuckles, they form the missing link between skin and glove that makes the difference between sore hands and worry-free training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knuckle guards are machine washable on cold, preferably in a wash bag to protect the elastic fabric and gel layer. They can also go in the dryer. Wash them regularly to prevent odour and bacterial growth — particularly important because they are worn directly on the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eColour options\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in black, white, blue and red, so you can choose a variant that matches your hand wraps and gloves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith the Hayabusa Boxing Knuckle Guards you invest in a small but essential piece of equipment that protects your hands in the long term. A smart addition for every serious fighter who wants to keep their knuckles healthy and pain-free, training after training.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayabusa","offers":[{"title":"S\/M","offer_id":43011137667257,"sku":"KP-BK-SM","price":29.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"L\/XL","offer_id":43011137700025,"sku":"KP-BK-LXL","price":29.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/7531\/5641\/files\/hayabusa-knokkel-beschermers-zwart-bandages-441.jpg?v=1719064970","url":"https:\/\/thefightcompany.nl\/en\/products\/hayabusa-knuckle-guards-black","provider":"The Fight Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
