YOKKAO 'Original' Muay Thai Gloves - Gold
1Decide the job
Start with your gym's rule
Glove ounces describe weight and padding. They do not measure your hand.
Ask your coach
Confirm the required glove weight for sparring or competition.
Choose the training use
Bag, pad, all-purpose and sparring work use different padding levels.
Check hand fit separately
Ounces do not tell you whether the hand pocket fits your fingers, palm and wraps.
After choosing the ounce, test the hand compartment with the wraps you use in training.
2Find your row
Choose the glove weight
Ounces choose padding weight and training use. They do not measure your hand.
US unit: ounces
| Ounce | Best starting use | Before you buy |
|---|---|---|
| Competition only when rules require 8 oz | Not a default sparring glove | |
| Bag, pad and technical work | Prioritize speed and feedback | |
| Bag, pad and lighter all-purpose work | Check gym rules before partner work | |
| All-purpose training | Partner drills only when your gym approves | |
| Common sparring starting point | Gym rule still decides | |
| Coach or gym directed training | Use only when the training rule calls for it |
3Confirm your choice
Training rule decides the ounce.
Use the ounce required for the work. If the hand pocket does not fit, change glove model instead of dropping the required padding.
4Use this size
Apply it to the product
Select a row above. Your current color stays selected.
When it arrives
Confirm the fit before training
Put on the wraps you train in and close a complete fist inside the glove.
- Wrapped hand closes naturally
- No thumb or fingertip pressure
- No numbness across the knuckles
- Wrist closure locks without cutting circulation
If any check fails, do not train in the gear. Start an exchange while it is still returnable.

Which glove weight should I choose?
Ounces describe glove weight, not universal hand size. Start with your gym, coach, or event requirements, then use the size guide with your normal wraps.
Should I expect a soft glove immediately?
New-glove feel varies by model and by your hand-and-wrap setup. Do not buy on a promised break-in schedule; use the decision cues and the size guide.
How durable are Yokkao gloves for regular use?
Constructed from premium cowhide leather or high-end microfiber with double-stitched seams and reinforced stress points, Yokkao gloves generally last 1.5-3 years or more with 3-5 weekly sessions involving sparring, bag work, and clinching, provided they are properly aired out and maintained to prevent odor buildup.
