RDX Women Boxing Gloves for Training - Durable Maya Hide Mitts

In this review we tested the RDX Women Boxing Gloves for Training to determine whether they work well for regular bagwork, sparring and mitt sessions. The bottom line: these gloves are a solid choice for women who want a durable, well-padded training mitt that balances protection and wrist support. Constructed with Maya Hide Leather and multiple foam layers, they deliver reliable impact management without feeling overly bulky, making them a practical pick for kickboxing, Muay Thai and general boxing practice.

Key Features

• Maya Hide Leather: The leather construction provides a sturdy outer shell that holds up to repeated training sessions and resists scuffs better than thinner synthetics.
• Multiple layers of padding: EVA foam, SpongeX and a Polygonal Fusion sheet work together to absorb impact and protect knuckles during heavy bag work and sparring.
• Attached thumb design: The thumb remains aligned with the fist to reduce the risk of thumb injuries and to help form a safer striking hand.
• Ventilation holes: Palm vents keep hands drier during long sessions, which improves comfort and reduces sweat buildup inside the glove.
• Extra-long strap with Quick-EZ closure: The wide strap secures the wrist and helps manage pressure on impact for better stability when punching.

Who It's For

The RDX Women Boxing Gloves are best for female trainees who need a versatile training glove that handles bags, pads and light sparring. They suit beginners through intermediate practitioners who want durable leather construction and noticeable padding without excessive weight.

These gloves are less appropriate for athletes seeking ultra-light speed gloves for conditioning drills or those who require specialized competition gloves; for high-level competition a certified contest glove or a lighter, faster training model may be preferable.
