The glove that strikes and grips. These UFC MMA gloves with free fingers combine protection and freedom of movement: you can chain stand-up strikes, grips and ground work without ever being held back. A black model in genuine leather, in the recognisable shape of a fight glove, for mixed martial arts practitioners in training as much as in sparring.
Built for MMA
The free-finger cut and the open palm allow grips, locks and grappling while keeping the hands ventilated. The free thumb makes it easier to grab and control an opponent. The padding, concentrated on the back of the hand, spreads impact to protect the knuckles when striking, without weighing the hand down: you keep the feel and the accuracy MMA calls for.
Genuine leather and comfort
The shell is genuine leather, hard-wearing and comfortable, which moulds to the hand over time and takes on a patina with use. The lining wicks sweat and the ventilated thumb sleeve improves comfort under effort. The hook-and-loop strap gives quick adjustment and a solid hold at the wrist, session after session.
Striking and gripping, with no trade-off
That is the whole point of an MMA glove: enough padding to protect the knuckles when striking, and a hand free enough to grip, clinch and work on the ground. One piece of kit for every phase of a fight, standing and on the mat.

Frequently asked questions
What are MMA gloves for?
They protect the knuckles and the wrist when striking while leaving the fingers and thumb free to grip, control and work on the ground. It is the kit specific to mixed martial arts, in training as much as in sparring.
Why are the palm and the thumb open?
To allow gripping: an open palm and a free thumb make holds, locks and grappling possible, none of which work in a closed boxing glove. That is what makes these gloves right for ground fighting.
Are they genuine leather?
Yes, the shell is genuine leather: hard-wearing, comfortable, and it moulds to the hand as it is used, taking on a patina. The lining is breathable and the thumb sleeve ventilated.
What size should I take?
MMA gloves are chosen on hand size, not on weight in ounces. Measure round the knuckles and pick between S, M, L and XL. Between two sizes, take the larger, especially if you wear wraps underneath.
What is the difference between MMA gloves and boxing gloves?
MMA gloves are mitts with free fingers and an open palm: they protect the knuckles while still letting you grip and grapple, which is essential on the ground. Boxing gloves are closed and far more padded: they protect more for pure striking and stand-up sparring, but allow no grip at all.
Can they be worn with hand wraps?
Yes, and it is recommended for sparring: wraps hold the wrist and the metacarpals. Allow for the extra thickness when choosing your size — that is the main reason to size up.
