MMA Gloves 4 or 7 Oz
Many customers find themselves unsure when purchasing new MMA gloves whether to choose 4oz or 7oz padding. Our advice is that if you do a lot of MMA sparring, go for 7oz — the thicker padding provides significantly better protection for both your hands and your opponent, helping to prevent injuries.
If you mainly focus on ground work and technique training, 4oz MMA gloves are perfectly suitable. The padding on this model is considerably thinner, making it easier to escape from holds such as an armbar or to grip your opponent.
If you train more than 2 or 3 times per week, we recommend purchasing leather MMA gloves. Leather gloves are of higher quality and have a longer lifespan under intensive use.
For size advice, you can use the size chart below. For boxing gloves, body weight is the determining factor, whereas for MMA gloves, hand circumference is what matters. To measure for MMA gloves, wrap a measuring tape around your hand just below the knuckles, excluding the thumb.
| Size | Hand circumference (cm) |
|---|---|
| S | 16 - 19 |
| M | 19 - 21 |
| L | 21 - 24 |
| XL | 24+ |
