Low-top5 colourways
The essentials: low-top boxing shoes in five colourways: navy and red, royal blue and red, black and gold, and two black galaxy-print versions — silver or purple — which add a hook-and-loop strap and a white cracked finish. 8 sizes, EU 39 to 46 (UK 5.5 to 11.5). €89, free shipping.
Five colourways, but two builds: three lace-only versions and two that add a strap over the instep. The choice is not only about colour.
Five colourways, two builds
The navy and red, royal blue and red, and black and gold versions close with laces alone. The two galaxy-print versions add a hook-and-loop strap over the instep and a white cracked finish on the panels. Same last, same sole.
What it looks like
Honeycomb mesh over the forefoot with smooth side panels. The outsole is flat, with a chevron and block tread and no pronounced cleats.

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.
What is the difference between the five boxing shoe colourways?
Three close with laces alone — navy and red, royal blue and red, black and gold. The two galaxy-print versions add a hook-and-loop strap over the instep and a white cracked finish.
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.
Are boxing shoes suitable for MMA, kickboxing or savate?
For kickboxing and savate, yes — the flat sole and the low collar suit both. MMA is fought barefoot, so shoes are for training only.
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.
How does an iridescent pattern hold up on a boxing shoe?
The pattern is a film applied to the side panel rather than a flat print, which is what lets it take the friction of the bag and the mat. Wipe with a damp cloth after the session and air-dry away from direct heat.
