Mitts - perfecting your punching technique with the help of kicking & punching pads
Anybody - whether amateur or professional - can work on their punching technique with the use of mitts and the corresponding mitt training. Hooks and straights, for example, can be practised and the tactical possibilities tested. Whether mitt, disc mitt or combi mitt, PAFFEN SPORT offers a large and high-quality selection of different hand mitts.
We offer beginner models for hobby or leisure, such as the «FIT» disc mitt or the «FIT» combi mitt. While the disc mitt is only intended for the boxer‘s punching exercises, the combination mitt can also be used to practise competition-like interactions. More advanced users can practise more complex sequences with the «ALLROUND ECO» trainer mitt.
The mitts and pads in our «COACH» and «PRO» line are aimed at trained and professional trainers. These high-quality mitts offer first-class materials and workmanship in combination with different focal points.
These mitts are available as combi, trainer and professional mitts with different degrees of cushioning for the ball of the hand and palm, only with hand slip for quick entry or additional hook and loop and buckle fasteners.
For special requirements and design lovers, we offer the mitts from the «THE TRADITIONAL», «Gel» and «KIBO FIGHT» lines. If you want to make your training even more flexible and versatile, you should take a look at the «COACH» combi pad and the «PRO THAI» body protector.
The round «COACH» combi pad is particularly good for training fast punch sequences. This pad is also ideal for training in Muay Thai, kickboxing or MMA. With the «PRO THAI» body protector developed for Muay Thai and kickboxing, boxers can train liver and kidney hooks or targeted body punches even better.
Mitts, punch cushions or punch pads - training aids with a long history
Mitts have been used since the 1920s. They were introduced by sambo fighter Anatoly Kharlampiev. The aim of training with the help of punch pads is to practise and automate certain punches, step combinations and body movements.
Through the realistic competition movements, in which the trainer wears the hand mitts, the boxer can learn to correctly allocate their energy by efficiently using the punching techniques on the punch pads. Our «GEL» Pro mats with sturdy hook & loop fasteners are ideal for this purpose. They offer optimum shock absorption and a secure hold.
