About the product
Bag gloves Legacy 2.0 is Shinka Combat's bag glove. We carry the series because we trust the quality, and we keep it in stock in good quantities. It is built for the bag and the pads - not for sparring, which calls for a proper boxing glove. The outer is matt PU in triple layer thickness, and the padding is a handmade mould of foam, underlay and EVA foam. Inside there is a waterproof lining, the palm is perforated, and the wrist closes with a 5 cm wide velcro strap.
Benefits
- Triple layer thickness: Matt PU in three layers on the surface that hits the bag.
- Handmade mould: Foam, underlay and EVA foam shaped to the hand.
- Waterproof lining: The sweat stays in the wraps instead of in the glove.
- Perforated palm: Holes where the glove would otherwise get hottest.
Use
- Bag: What the glove is built for - many punches, hard surface.
- Pads and focus mitts: For rounds with a coach holding the pads.
- Boxing: For all technique and conditioning work without a partner.
- Kickboxing and Muay Thai: Same function, whether or not you also kick.
Care
- Take them out of the bag after training - a closed bag never dries
- Air dry at room temperature, preferably with the opening facing up
- Never on a radiator, in a tumble dryer or in direct sun - the glue lets go and the foam hardens
- Wipe the outside with a damp cloth, never in the washing machine
- Wear wraps or inner gloves so the sweat does not go straight into the lining

Questions and answers
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Why is there no oz weight on a bag glove?
Because oz - ounces, the weight of the glove - only tells you how much padding there is between your fist and another person. A boxing glove is chosen by weight precisely because it has to soften the blow for the opponent. A bag glove hits a bag or a pad, so it simply has to fit snugly and protect your own knuckles. That is why it is chosen by hand size instead, and why the selector shows letters rather than numbers.
-
Which size should I choose?
Legacy 2.0 comes in five steps in the selector: X-Small, Small, Medium, Large and X-Large. Shinka Combat does not publish a size chart, so we cannot convert a hand measurement to a letter - the glove should fit snugly without pressing over the knuckles, and if in doubt, write or call us before you order. The model goes one step further than our Speed, which stops at Large, so if you have a large adult hand, this is the one to look at.
-
Can I use them for sparring?
No. A bag glove has too little padding for controlled sparring with a partner, and it only protects you - not the person you hit. For sparring, use a proper boxing glove in the weight your club or the rules require. The bag glove belongs on the bag, the pads and focus mitts.
-
Should I wear wraps inside?
Yes, especially on the bag. The bag glove protects the knuckles from the outside, but it does not hold the hand together from the inside - the wraps do that, by binding the metacarpal bones and stabilising the wrist. The wraps also take the sweat, so it does not go straight into the lining. The short length of 250-255 cm is plenty under a bag glove, where there is not much room.
