FAQs

What are the dimensions of these bandages for official fights?

These bandages are designed to meet the requirements for official fights as per IBA (International Boxing Association) standards. Specific length variants are available to suit different needs.

How long should I wrap my hands?

The ideal wrapping length varies per individual. Generally, 100-180 inches (2.5-4.5 meters) is common. These bandages are available in different lengths, so choose one that allows for sufficient coverage of the wrist, hand, and knuckles without being excessively bulky.

Can I machine wash these bandages?

It is not recommended to machine wash or dry these bandages. Hand washing in cold water and air drying is the best method to maintain the integrity of the elastic cotton and the Velcro closure.

What is the primary benefit of using boxing bandages?

Boxing bandages provide essential support to the small bones and joints in your hands and wrists, helping to prevent injuries like sprains and fractures during impact activities. They also absorb sweat, keeping your hands drier inside the glove.

Are these bandages suitable for beginners?

Yes, while designed for official fights, their comfortable and secure fit makes them suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. However, learning the proper wrapping technique is crucial for all users.

What materials are these bandages made from?

These boxing bandages are made from 100% elastic cotton, offering flexibility and comfort.

What sports are these bandages best suited for?

They are ideal for boxing, Muay Thai, Thai boxing, MMA, and kickboxing, as well as other martial arts that involve striking.

Troubleshooting

Bandages feel too loose or shift during use.

Ensure you are wrapping with consistent tension and securing the Velcro strap firmly. Try a different length if available, or re-apply with more wraps around the wrist for added stability.

Velcro closure not holding securely.

Clean the Velcro surfaces to remove any lint or debris. If the Velcro is worn out, consider replacing the bandages as the adhesive may be failing.

Discomfort around the thumb.

If using the thumb loop, ensure it's not too tight. Experiment with not using the thumb loop or adjusting how you wrap the initial part around the thumb.

Bandages feel too tight and restrict circulation.

Unwrap and re-apply with less tension, especially around the wrist and fingers. Ensure you are not wrapping over the same area too many times consecutively.
