Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Rival Boxing Gear products, shipping, and service.
How do I determine the correct glove size for training?
Glove size depends on your body weight and the intended use. Generally, 10oz-12oz gloves are for bag work, while 14oz-16oz are recommended for sparring to provide maximum protection. Please refer to our detailed Size Guide on each product page for specific measurements.
What is the difference between the RS and RB glove series?
The RS (Rival Sparring) series is designed with softer foam to protect both you and your partner during live combat. The RB (Rival Bag) series features high-density, layered foam specifically engineered to withstand the repetitive impact of heavy bag and mitt work.
How long does shipping take for domestic and international orders?
Domestic orders typically process within 1-2 business days and arrive within 3-5 days. International shipping times vary by destination but generally take 7-14 business days. Tracking information is provided via email once your order leaves our warehouse.
What is your return policy for boxing equipment?
We offer a 30-day return policy on all unused items in their original packaging. For hygiene reasons, hand wraps and mouthguards cannot be returned once opened. Customers are responsible for return shipping costs unless the item is defective.
How should I clean and maintain my Rival leather gloves?
After every session, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and use a dry towel for the interior. Never leave gloves in a closed gym bag; always air dry them in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heaters to prevent leather cracking.
Do you offer professional discounts for gyms and coaches?
Yes, Rival Boxing Gear offers a Wholesale Program for gym owners, professional coaches, and licensed competitors. Please contact our sales team with your credentials to apply for a pro-account discount.
