PU leather24 x 20 x 5 cm / 9.4 x 8 x 2 in1 or 2 pieces
The essentials: black and white focus mitts in PU leather, 24 x 20 x 5 cm / 9.4 x 8 x 2 in. A white ring target at the centre of the striking face for precision work. Injection moulded padding with strong shock absorption, an ergonomic gusset, a mesh lining and cross lacing around the rim. Your choice: 1 piece at €25 or the pair at €44, free standard delivery.
The model offered singly as well as in pairs. Black and white, a clean ring target, exposed cross lacing: a focus mitt with no ornament, built for everyday work. Buying singly also lets you complete an existing set or replace a worn mitt without buying the pair again.
1 piece or 2 pieces: your choice
That is the particularity of this model. Most focus mitts are only sold in pairs; this one can also be ordered singly.
- The pair: the standard set-up, for working combinations with both hands.
- The single piece: to replace a damaged mitt, complete a mismatched set, or work one-handed while keeping the other hand free to correct the boxer's guard.
Ring target: a clean reference
The black striking face carries a white ring at its centre. The contrast is at its maximum: the boxer aims at the heart of the ring, and the coach sees at a glance whether the impact was centred. That simple marker naturally corrects the alignment of the fist on the jab and the cross, and stays readable even when the target is moving fast.
24 x 20 x 5 cm: a compact format
At 24 cm / 9.4 in long, 20 cm / 8 in wide and 5 cm / 2 in thick, this focus mitt stays light and easy to handle. The 5 cm of injection moulded padding deliver strong shock absorption on punch work, while letting the coach move the target quickly between shots.
Grip and ventilation
The gusset follows the shape of the hand for a comfortable, stable grip, with finger loops and a wide hook-and-loop strap at the wrist. The mesh lining moves sweat away over long sessions, and the PU leather stands up well to the friction of gloves. The rim is closed with exposed cross lacing, stronger than plain stitching.
Technical specifications
Which focus mitts to choose
Getting the most out of pad work
- Aim at the ring: ask the boxer to hit the centre of the target, not simply the mitt.
- Short combinations: 3 to 5 shots (jab, cross, hook) beat long, loose series.
- Locked wrist: present the mitt facing the fist and meet the impact slightly.
- Simulated counters: send a mitt back towards the boxer to make them keep their guard up and slip.
- Care: wipe after each session with a dry or lightly damp cloth, air the mesh and let it dry naturally.

Frequently asked questions
Should I order 1 piece or 2 pieces?
For standard work in pairs or in a club, take the pair: the coach holds one mitt per hand and runs the combinations. The single piece is useful to replace a damaged mitt, complete a mismatched set, or work one-handed while keeping the other hand free to correct the guard.
What are the exact dimensions?
24 cm / 9.4 in long, 20 cm / 8 in wide and 5 cm / 2 in thick. A compact, light format, built for punch work and quick target changes.
What are they made of?
PU leather, a supple synthetic that stands up to the friction of gloves, with injection moulded padding inside and cross lacing around the rim. For very heavy daily use, the Esprit Boxe range in real leather offers a longer working life.
Are they suitable for beginners?
Yes. The high-contrast ring target is an excellent teaching reference for a beginner learning to align the fist. Their light weight suits a training partner as well as a club coach.
Do you need gloves to strike them?
Yes. Pad work is done with hand wraps and boxing gloves, generally 10 to 14 oz. Striking bare-handed exposes the knuckles, even against a padded target.
How do you look after them?
Wipe the surface with a dry or lightly damp cloth after each session, air the mesh lining and let it dry at room temperature. Avoid the washing machine, soaking and direct heat.
