Low-topHook-and-loop strapHalf sizes
The essentials: low-top boxing shoes in blue and black, black mesh upper, matt royal blue panels, hook-and-loop strap over the instep. BOXER printed on the side. 14 sizes, EU 36 to 45 including half sizes. €69, free shipping.
One full size is about 6.7 mm of foot length. On a street shoe that gap goes unnoticed; on a boxing shoe, whose whole job is to remove the play between foot and sole, you feel it in the first round.
Fourteen sizes, five half sizes
This grid runs EU 36 to 45 and includes half sizes at 36.5, 38.5, 42.5 and 44.5. If your measurement falls between two sizes, that is the most direct answer — and one of the few grids in the collection to offer it.
What it looks like
Wide-mesh black upper over the forefoot and the collar, matt royal blue panels on the toe, sides and heel, and BOXER printed on the side. A black strap crosses the instep above the lacing. The outsole is black with wide blue plates front and rear.

Frequently asked questions
How do I choose my boxing shoe size?
A boxing shoe should fit closer than a street shoe: no play at the heel, toes just short of the end. Measure your foot in the evening, when it is at its largest, and take your usual EU size unless you are between two — then size up.
Why choose a half size on a boxing shoe?
Because a full size is around 6.7 mm of length, and a boxing shoe is meant to remove the play between foot and sole. Half a size is the difference between toes touching the end and a heel that shifts in the counter.
What is the difference between low-top and high-top boxing shoes?
The collar height. A low-top sits at or just above the ankle bone and leaves the foot free for pivots and footwork. A high-top wraps several centimetres up the calf and braces the ankle, which suits boxers who plant their feet to punch.
How do you clean boxing shoes?
A damp cloth on the upper and the sole after each session. Wash the laces separately by hand, air-dry with the insole taken out, and never on a radiator: direct heat stiffens the assembly glue.
Are boxing shoes suitable for MMA, kickboxing or savate?
For kickboxing and savate, yes. MMA is fought barefoot, so shoes are for training only.
Do these boxing shoes come in another colour?
Yes — the same build in black and red, with red panels and the same strap over the instep.
