How to Size Headgear and Groin Guard in a Sparring Set

Black sparring set sizing guide

Ordering a sparring set means choosing three sizes. Measure once, carefully, and everything will fit.

Step 1: Glove weight

Choose by bodyweight and use – most adults spar in 16oz. Full table: boxing glove size chart.

Step 2: Headgear size

Wrap a soft tape around your head just above the eyebrows and ears.

Size Head circumference
S 52–55 cm
M 55–58 cm
L 58–61 cm
XL 61–64 cm

Step 3: Groin guard size

Measure around your waist where the guard’s belt will sit.

Size Waist
S 66–76 cm / 26–30 in
M 76–86 cm / 30–34 in
L 86–97 cm / 34–38 in
XL 97–107 cm / 38–42 in

Between sizes?

Go up for headgear if you wear it over braids or thick hair; go down for the groin guard if you prefer a snug fit. More help: measuring for headgear and sizing a groin guard.

FAQ

What if headgear is too loose?

Tighten the back closure first; if it still moves, choose a smaller size.

Can I exchange sizes?
