In short: mini punching bag reproduced with its leather hanging tabs and four chains converging on a single ring, exactly like a real bag. Soft padded body, total length about 12 cm / 4.7 in. Two colours: red or black. A keyring that reproduces a piece of gym equipment. 19 EUR, free standard delivery.
All our other keyrings show a glove. This one reproduces what you hit: a hanging heavy bag, in miniature. Padded cylindrical body, visible base stitching, and above all a complete suspension system - that is what sets it apart from a plain cylinder charm.
The suspension system is reproduced as it is
Four leather tabs stitched to the top of the bag, four metal chains converging upwards, and a single ring at the apex. That is exactly the rigging of a gym heavy bag, brought down to keyring scale. It is the detail keyring makers almost always replace with a single loop.
Red or black: the two colours of a gym bag
These are not two shades picked at random. Red and black are the two historic colours of heavy bags, the ones hanging in practically every boxing gym.
- Red: the more visible of the two, the one that stands out straight away against a dark kit bag or a loaded keyring.
- Black: the quieter of the two, and the closer to a standard gym bag.
In both cases the model keeps the leather reinforcements at the anchor points - where a real bag takes the most pull. They are natural leather on the red, black on the black.
Three ways to carry it
- On a gym bag: its natural home. A mini heavy bag clipped to a boxing holdall reads instantly in a changing room.
- On the rear-view mirror: its 12 cm / 4.7 in and cylindrical shape make it hang straight, without spinning on itself.
- On your keys: soft and padded, it scratches neither the keys nor a phone screen.

Technical specifications
Soft or metal?
A soft mini bag is not used the way a cast metal keyring is. Weight, scratching, how each behaves on a car mirror, how each ages: the full comparison table sits on the France boxing glove keyring page. It applies here unchanged, both models sharing the same soft padded construction.
Worth knowing before you buy
This is a 12 cm / 4.7 in object. With its cylindrical body it takes noticeably more room in a pocket than a 5.5 cm / 2.2 in mini glove. On a bag or a mirror that volume is the point; in a jeans pocket with a full set of keys it makes itself felt. For a discreet format, our mini gloves suit better.
Four chains, four points of tension. That is what makes the rigging convincing, and they can twist around each other. Avoid pulling on the bag itself to free them: take hold of the top ring and the chains fall back into place on their own.
Keep it out of standing water. The inner padding is slow to dry and the body can lose its shape. Take it out of a closed kit bag after training.
Care
A soft cloth, barely damp, on the body, then air dry. The metal chains clean dry. Keep solvents and disinfectant wipes away, as they dull the cover and the markings. The leather reinforcements will darken slightly over time, which is normal.
Frequently asked questions
How big is this mini punching bag keyring?
About 12 cm / 4.7 in in total length, chains and ring included, against 5.5 cm / 2.2 in for our soft mini gloves.
Red or black: which one?
Red is the more visible: it stands out straight away against a dark kit bag. Black is the quieter of the two and the closer to a standard gym bag. Both are the same price.
Is the bag rigid or soft?
Soft and padded, like a real heavy bag in miniature. It gives slightly when pressed between two fingers and springs back.
Are the chains strong?
They are metal, attached to four leather tabs stitched to the bag, as on a real suspension system. To untangle them, take hold of the top ring rather than pulling on the body of the bag.
Does it suit a car keyring?
It scratches nothing and stays light, though its volume makes itself felt in a pocket. Hung from the mirror or clipped to a gym bag it is exactly where it belongs. For an everyday set of keys, our 5.5 cm / 2.2 in mini gloves are more discreet.
Does it make a good gift for a boxer?
It is the keyring for someone who actually trains: everyone gives a miniature glove, almost nobody gives the bag. No size to know, and an object seen every day.
