Product Information
Full details
The Decathlon Boxing Full Face Headguard is designed for amateur and fitness boxers who require comprehensive head protection during sparring and heavy contact training. Its primary benefit is the triple-density foam construction that effectively absorbs impact on critical zones like the forehead and cheekbones, though users should be aware that the full-face coverage may slightly reduce peripheral heat dissipation compared to open-face models.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, first pull the headguard over your head and adjust the crown elastic strap to sit securely on the top of your head. Pull the rear self-locking elastic closure firmly to ensure the guard is tight enough to prevent rotation but not so tight that it restricts breathing or comfort. Regarding care, always wipe the inner liner with an antimicrobial spray or a damp cloth immediately after training to prevent odor buildup. Do not submerge the headguard in water or use harsh chemicals. Allow the gear to air dry in a well-ventilated area, avoiding direct sunlight or heat sources, which can crack the protective exterior material.
