RDX Kick Shield Muay Thai Kickboxing - Large Curved 60CM Pad

In this review the RDX Kick Shield proves to be a straightforward training tool for fighters and coaches who want a large, durable target for heavy kicking and striking drills. The single-pad package delivers a 60cm by 36cm curved striking surface and a thick 13cm core that noticeably softens impacts, so the bottom line is simple: it is for people who need a resilient, body-conforming pad that stands up to repeated power strikes. The review finds it especially useful for Muay Thai, kickboxing and MMA partners focused on kicking power and technique.

Key Features

• Large curved striking area: The 60cm x 36cm curved face provides a 2160cm2 target that makes it easier to catch kicks cleanly and gives a natural arc for roundhouse practice.
• Thick impact padding: At 13cm thickness the SpongEX and Denzo Tron layers diffuse force so partners feel less shock from repeated heavy kicks.
• Three padded handles: Multiple handles including a reinforced top handle and padded lower straps improve holder stability for accurate, controlled strikes.
• Secure hook and loop: Double hoop-and-loop fastenings keep the straps from shifting during drills so the pad remains steady during combinations.
• Reinforced stitching: Cross-stitched edges and strap areas extend longevity so the pad endures frequent, sweat-heavy sessions.
• Durable materials: Maya Hide leather and PVC reinforcements on high-wear points are designed to hold up under regular training.

Who It's For

Coaches, training partners and martial artists who practice Muay Thai, kickboxing, MMA or taekwondo and want a large, curved pad that absorbs heavy kicks will find this model well suited to regular gym use. The combination of thick padding and multiple grip options makes it a good choice for sessions focused on power, accuracy and repetitive striking drills.

Beginners seeking a very light, beginner-friendly pad or solo practitioners looking for a bag-style solution should look elsewhere; this product is optimized for partner drills and live holding rather than solo heavy bag replacement.
