N°02 — Craft / Anatomy of the Pro Glove
Nothing added.
Nothing held back.
Five layers, each with one job. Here's exactly what goes into a 16oz Pro Boxing Glove — material, thickness and why it's there.
Exploded view — Pro Boxing GloveNot to scale
i.
Outer shell1.6 mm
Layer i.01 / 05
Full-grain cowhide shell
The only layer you see — and the one that takes every strike. Full-grain hide keeps its natural surface, so it creases and breaks in instead of cracking.
- Material
- Full-grain cowhide
- Thickness
- 1.4–1.6 mm
- Finish
- Hand-buffed, semi-aniline
- Stitching
- Triple-row bonded nylon
Layer ii.02 / 05
Viscoelastic gel insert
A gel insert over the knuckles deforms on impact and spreads peak force across a wider area — less sting for you, less damage to your partner.
- Material
- Viscoelastic gel
- Thickness
- 6 mm
- Coverage
- Knuckle line + back of hand
- Position
- Between shell and foam
Layer iii.03 / 05
Tri-density foam core
Three foam densities layered by hand: soft on contact, firm at the centre. This is where the weight in "oz" comes from — and why the glove holds its shape after camp.
- Construction
- 3 densities, soft → firm
- Depth at knuckle
- 40 mm (16oz)
- Process
- Hand-layered, heat-bonded
- Weights
- 10 · 12 · 14 · 16 oz
Layer iv.04 / 05
Extended wrist support
An internal polymer splint and a 9 cm hook-and-loop strap lock the wrist in line with the forearm, so hooks and body shots land straight.
- Strap
- 9 cm (3.5") hook & loop
- Splint
- Internal moulded polymer
- Closure
- Full 360° wrap
- Thumb
- Attached, padded
Layer v.05 / 05
Moisture-wicking lining
A ventilated mesh lining pulls sweat away from the wrap, and a silver-ion treatment keeps odour from building up between sessions.
- Fabric
- Polyester mesh, 180 GSM
- Treatment
- Silver-ion antimicrobial
- Palm
- Perforated for airflow
- Care
- Air-dry with strap open
