Specification

What goes into custom hybrid MMA gloves

Hybrid MMA gloves sit between a fight glove and a sparring glove. They are typically 4 to 7 oz and are usually built with a segmented knuckle, which protects the hand when striking and still lets it close for grips and submissions. That makes them the usual glove for amateur federations and for recreational fighters who want one pair for striking and grappling. We make them to your specification, padding, shell, finger loops, wrist strap, colours and logo, and you approve a sample before bulk.

Choosing and using

Getting custom hybrid MMA gloves right

Between a fight glove and a sparring glove

A fight glove is typically 4 oz, made for the bout, and a sparring glove 7 to 8 oz, made to protect a training partner. A hybrid glove sits between them: more protection over the knuckles than a fight glove, and a segmented knuckle that bends, so the hand can still close for grips and submissions.

That is why amateur federations and recreational fighters often train in one pair of hybrids rather than two different gloves. Members who spar hard can still add a dedicated sparring glove later.

Questions

Questions about custom hybrid MMA gloves

Still have a question?

Ask it the way you would ask a coach. A person replies within one working day.

What is a hybrid MMA glove?
A glove between a fight glove and a sparring glove, typically 4 to 7 oz, usually with a segmented knuckle that protects the hand when striking and still lets it close for grips and submissions. It suits amateur fighters and recreational members who want one glove for striking and grappling. MMA glove types and weights, explained
Hybrid or sparring gloves for gym members?
Hybrids suit classes that mix striking and grappling, because the hand can close for grips. For hard partner sparring, a 7 to 8 oz sparring glove with thicker knuckle foam protects the partner more. Many gyms stock both. Custom MMA sparring gloves
Can hybrid gloves be used in amateur competition?
Each federation and event sets its own glove rules, so check yours before ordering. We make the glove to the specification you approve, and we do not claim approval for any event.
Can hybrid and fight gloves be in one order?
Yes, in the same colour scheme. They are different products with their own patterns and set-up, so each needs its own 50 pairs per design, split across sizes S to XL in any mix.
What do the mockup and sample cost?
Mockups are free, with as many changes as you need. The physical sample is priced on its specification and customisation, so its price depends on what you choose, and it is in your quote before we make it. The sample reaches you in 7–10 days, and when you go ahead with bulk, half of the sample price is credited against your bulk order. If the sample needs changes, the revised sample and its price are agreed with you before we make it. If a change is needed because we made a mistake, the revised sample is free.
Can you make hybrid MMA gloves under our own brand?
Yes. Your logo, printed labels and packaging are part of the specification, and your artwork, mockups and approved specification stay yours. We never sell your design or make it for anyone else.
Will a reorder match the first batch?
Your approved sample stays in our workshop for at least two years after your last order and your specification is stored digitally, so a reorder doesn't need a new sample: it goes straight to production, from 25 per design. Your dispatch date is confirmed in writing when you place it. How reorders work
How long does an order take?
Production starts when you approve your sample, and bulk typically takes 4–6 weeks from approval, plus courier transit. Your exact dispatch date is confirmed in writing with your quote.
