Boxing shoes are one of the most important and most personal pieces of boxing equipment. Probably the second most critical piece of gear after your boxing gloves. Boxing shoes help you move with absolute control, giving you explosive footwork as well as anchored stops. When selecting boxing boots for kids, you’ll want to think carefully about the fit and height of the boot. Boots that sit lower on the ankle allow greater flexibility and movement, though they do not protect the shins in the same way. High top boots keep your ankles and shins secure but you may find your movement is a little slower. We are confident that you will not be able to beat our online prices anywhere else. But with our best price guarantee, we can always look at matching any UK competitor.*

Rival, I’ve never liked much. I think they’re made well enough, they just didn’t fit well when I first tried a pair. I didn’t like the way it felt on my feet. Too many lumps in the sole that doesn’t curve the way the bottom of my foot did. My brother loves the one he has (comfortable and fit well, still quality) but does feel like they are slightly lower quality than Nike. This extends from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet. Everything working together can really help you reach your full potential.

Benefits of Wearing Boxing Shoes

Cleto Reyes are solid high quality and have always been a popular quality brand for many years. Seyer is another diehard Mexican brand but like most Mexican brands are not often found outside of Mexico. There are also several other Mexican brands that also make boxing shoes, but not all of them. I suspect boxing shoes are more hassle and less profitable compared to boxing gloves. Either way, you can research on Google if you want to explore all the other Mexican brands and see what customizations are possible. Another new model. Really sexy design and well-liked. They’re probably replacing the old “Adidas Champ Speed III” shoes that were the most popular Adidas boxing shoe I’ve ever seen.

Many of you will be tempted to do what I did, which is not buy real boxing shoes until way later, until you’re more serious, but you won’t get to enjoy the fun of how good it feels to wear real boxing shoes. Your feet feel so much lighter, and you move around with so much more agility AND support as you jump around the boxing ring snapping hooks and crosses. You simply have to try it to see what I mean. Important Features of Good Boxing Shoes 1. Grip & Pivot The last thing to note is the construction of the toe and the heel. Some of you may like a shoe where the sole wraps up and covers the toe and the heel areas. This can make the shoe feel more durable and feel more grippy overall (especially when you pivot all the way to the toe-edge for punching). Others may hate when the toe edge has grip because they feel like it (grips and) trips them when they try to move. Those people probably prefer where the sole is only on bottom and the toe and heel areas are surrounded by the soft uppers. This might also feel lighter, more mobile or more comfortable to you.

Anyway, Otomix figured they could sell their martial arts & weightlifting shoes to the boxing market and it worked. At those price points, I don’t know why anyone would choose them over the more-established boxing brands. They do have many interesting designs in different color combinations. And I’m glad to hear some people like them and others don’t. I did notice that they seem to have many options for women. 6. JUNK brands – Everlast, Ringside, Titleboxing, Lonsdale This is probably most important and distinct feature of boxing shoes, their ability to grip the ground so that your feet don’t slide when transferring power…but at the same time, always allowing you to pivot so you can throw power punches or execute typical fighting footwork maneuvers.

We take pride in offering well-made boots that support your feet and ankles. Whether you are fighting regularly in competitions or just training, our range of boots will leave you spoilt for choice. The design of the RSX-Genesis is the culmination of our quest for the perfect boxing boot at the best possible price. Built for speed and durability, this classic beauty is made to withstand the toughest workout a professional can throw at it. These companies, in my opinion, are the HELL-NO brands. I will never buy or use them. I hear of too many complaints with their quality. I will have to admit that I haven’t used any of them for extended periods of time. (Based on the initial fitting, I didn’t want to.) Not surprisingly, I don’t see these brands as much in the gym (except for little kids). I would say they are completely inferior in quality, comfort, styling, and their cheaper price often reflects that. I think the biggest problem with them is that they’re not true shoe brands (and not quality boxing brands either, IMO). They don’t have the experience or know-how to make comfortable shoes. At best, they have cool designs and that’s it. Yes! Many fighters wear wrestling shoes for boxing. I have heard though, that wrestling shoes can be used for boxing but the reverse is not recommended. I’ve never tried and I imagine it would be ok considering how similar the wrestling shoes are built to boxing shoes. I imagine wrestling shoes probably have more grip on the outside edges than boxing shoes and built to be more durable considering the sport has you scrambling along the ground at all angles. Whereas boxing has you mainly on your feet so boxing shoes might be built more to be lightweight rather than for complete 360-degree durability. As a leading online boxing equipment retailer, we have low-top and high-top boxing boots for you to choose from, making it easy to find the right fit for you. Get both speed and flexibility in one boot with our selection available to buy now.

You will find that non-boxing shoes are pretty horrible when it comes to allowing you to grip & pivot. The way non-boxing shoes are shaped at the front can make pivoting a little awkward and also that the non-boxing shoes are either too slippery (don’t give you enough grip) or they give you too much grip (making it hard to pivot).

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to help them dry evenly and maintain their shape. Also, avoid overusing or overexerting them to ensure they last as long as possible.Nike, Reebok, and Adidas will always be the most popular (Nike still way more popular than the other two). If those two brands don’t suit your taste, try going for Rival. If you want to spend lots of money for custom gear, try Grant. Asics and Rival can also be seen sometimes. I think Rival might be more popular depending where you go. One of the most important tasks of a boxing shoe is to protect your ankles. As you already know, ankle injuries are common in sports where you’re jumping around, changing angles often, and constantly putting force on your ankles from all directions. Boxing can definitely put force on your ankles and knees depending on your fighting style.

Take a look at our range and use the filters to refine your search. We are sure you will find the right boots to assist with your training and performance when boxing. I’ve never tried any Mexican boxing shoes but do know them to be high quality and always well-respected over the years. The only reason why they aren’t more popular is due to cost, popularity, and accessibility. Due to their strong ties to hip-hop culture and recognizable brand in other sports, Nike/Adidas/Reebok are most likely the first pair of boxing shoes any fighter will wear. In fact, most boxers are probably wearing Nike basketball or running shoes as their first pair of “boxing shoes”. That’s why it’s easy to just go with Nike again when you buy your first pair of real boxing shoes. You already know and trust the brand. Complete with breathable mesh sides, a reinforced heel and a steel shaft for added support, fighters of every ability level ranging from beginner to intermediate to advanced will be able to enjoy a pro-quality boot at a great price. Boxing Shoes weigh less than the average athletic shoes, this will help Boxers to move lightly on their toes, change directions and find angles which are key parts of Boxing. They also usually have a thin rubber sole to help maintain traction without holding you too firmly to the ground. Boxing shoes come in different version, high-top, mid-top and low-top. They offer more support to your ankle and lower shins to prevent any injuries during training. Boxing Shoes also allow sweat to evaporate from the feet because they have permeability which means that fluids can pass through them quite easily. Even though this characteristic makes the Boots impractical for outside use, they do keep your feet cooler and drier in the ring. Other Boxing Products We Offer I feel that only amateurs and smaller guys will wear low-top shoes. Bigger guys and taller guys, tend to go for med or high-tops. I also noticed Adidas (when you do see them) are more often worn by the seasoned fighters, not so much by the newbies. Pros and seasoned amateurs are more likely to wear high-tops. If it matters to you, I would say about 80% of pro boxers wear Nike med-top boxing shoes, the other 20% wear Nike high-tops.In case you still wanted the clean classic original Machomai’s. Great shoes that were the most popular shoe for a long time. Nike performance and quality. 2. POPULAR brands – Adidas, Reebok, Rival, & Venum
