Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your gloves perform at their best, always wear hand wraps underneath to absorb sweat and add an extra layer of wrist support. After each session, wipe the interior and exterior with a clean, dry cloth. Never store your gloves in a gym bag while damp; always air-dry them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking and bacterial growth. If the leather appears dry, apply a specialized leather conditioner periodically to maintain suppleness.
