It was the first glove built from Rival's super-rich microfibre - a synthetic that holds its shape and finish through years of gym use where lesser materials crack and peel - and it pairs that shell with a full 50mm (2\") of layered foam over the knuckles. That depth of padding is what lets you and your partner go rounds without either of you carrying the damage home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFit is where the RS11V separates itself. A generous hand compartment lets you wrap properly and still close a full fist, while Rival's signature 15° angled cuff sets the wrist in a natural striking position. The dual-angle V-Strap Wrist Lock 2 system wraps the cuff from two directions for lockdown that stays put through a full session, and the AirFlow Control System keeps the inside of the glove cooler and drier than a closed shell. Embroidered and printed Rival graphics finish it off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra-thick 50mm (2\") layered foam padding - purpose-built for regular, hard sparring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuper-rich microfibre shell - Rival's durable, easy-clean alternative to leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eV-Strap Wrist Lock 2 - dual-angle strap locks the wrist from two directions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRival's trademark 15° angled cuff - natural wrist alignment on impact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoomy hand compartment with soft padded inner lining - wraps in, fist closes fully\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAirFlow Control System - ventilation that keeps the glove cooler and drier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmbroidered and printed Rival graphics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in Black, White and Blue - 12oz, 14oz and 16oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003eMODEL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003eRival RS11V Evolution Sparring Gloves\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003eUSE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003eSparring (also suits pad and bag work)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003eSIZES\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003e12oz, 14oz, 16oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003eCOLOURS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003eBlack, White, Blue\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003eOUTER MATERIAL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003eSuper-rich microfibre\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003ePADDING\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003e50mm (2\") layered foam\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003eCLOSURE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003eV-Strap Wrist Lock 2 hook-and-loop system\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003eCUFF\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003e15° angled cuff\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003eVENTILATION\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003eAirFlow Control System\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32%;\"\u003eWEIGHT (PAIR, APPROX.)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68%;\"\u003e12oz 0.73kg \/ 14oz 0.79kg \/ 16oz 0.93kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich Size Should I Choose?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor sparring, most gyms set a minimum glove weight to protect both fighters. As a general guide, 16oz suits fighters over 75kg and is the standard sparring weight in most Australian gyms; 14oz suits 60-75kg; 12oz suits lighter athletes and juniors, or pad and bag sessions where you want a faster glove. If your coach or gym has a rule, follow it - when in doubt, go heavier for sparring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis product is covered by a 3-month warranty against manufacturing defects - it does not cover wear and tear from normal training use, including impact wear on the striking surface.

It resists cracking and peeling far better than budget synthetics and wipes clean after every session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use them on the heavy bag as well?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Many fighters run one pair of RS11Vs for everything. They are padded for sparring first, so they feel a little softer on the bag than a dedicated bag glove - if you spend most of your time on the bag, a dedicated bag glove is the better fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I look after them?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWipe the outside down after training, loosen the straps and let them air dry fully - never in direct sun or a hot car. Wearing hand wraps every session keeps the lining fresh and extends the life of the padding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShips Australia-wide from our Sydney warehouse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShop More\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete your sparring kit - browse the full \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/boxing-gloves\"\u003eBoxing Gloves\u003c\/a\u003e range or add a \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/head-guards\"\u003eHead Guard\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" height=\"204\" width=\"204\" alt=\"Fitness Hero Commercial Gym Equipment Sydney\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/1302\/3847\/files\/Fitness_Hero_Sydney.png?v=1749873069\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rival Boxing Gear","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ 12oz","offer_id":50327239000167,"sku":"RS11V-Black-12oz","price":349.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 14oz","offer_id":50327239032935,"sku":"RS11V-Black-14oz","price":349.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 16oz","offer_id":50327239065703,"sku":"RS11V-Black-16oz","price":349.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 12oz","offer_id":50327239098471,"sku":"RS11V-White-12oz","price":349.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 14oz","offer_id":50327239131239,"sku":"RS11V-White-14oz","price":349.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 16oz","offer_id":50327239164007,"sku":"RS11V-White-16oz","price":349.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ 14oz","offer_id":50327239196775,"sku":"RS11V-Blue-14oz","price":349.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ 16oz","offer_id":50327239229543,"sku":"RS11V-Blue-16oz","price":349.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/1302\/3847\/files\/R-26-DESIGN-WEB-PRODUCT_PHOTOS-GLOVES-SPARRING_GLOVES-RS11v-BLACK-1.jpg?v=1790388154","url":"https:\/\/www.fitness-hero.com.au\/products\/rival-rs11v-evolution-sparring-gloves","provider":"Fitness Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
