Sparring gloves for every level of MMA

Injected foam and a neoprene interior
The injected foam absorbs impact, so your partner feels less of each strike. The palm is open and the fingers free for grips, and the neoprene inside helps wick sweat, which improves comfort and grip. The thumb is attached to the glove so it bends away less on impact.
The hook-and-loop strap supports the wrist. The outer is Skintex synthetic leather, in this colourway black with a grey marbled print, a red logo on the back of the hand and red lettering on the cuff. The graphics are screen-printed.
Choosing your size
Three sizes, one padding weight
We stock the Demon in sizes S, M and L/XL. The 8 oz figure refers to the padding, so choose according to the size of your hand and how the glove fits with your wraps, if you wear them.
If you are between two sizes, go for the one in which you can comfortably make a fist without the glove turning.
- Close your fistYour knuckles should stay under the foam, not slide to the edge of the padding.
- Open your handYour fingers should bend freely into a grip without the openings pulling.
- Fasten the strapThe glove should not turn at the wrist, and your hand should not tingle.
Size guide
Choose your size using hand circumference. Measurements are in centimetres.
| Size | Hand circumference (cm) |
|---|---|
| S | 16–18 |
| M | 19–21 |
| L/XL | 22 |
How to measure: Measure around your hand at the base of your fingers, excluding your thumb. Allow for the hand wraps you use.
Fit advice: Venum recommends the smaller option when between sizes. Account for your wraps and finger comfort. The manufacturer lists 22 cm as the reference circumference for L/XL.
Frequently asked questions
What sets them apart from the G-Core sparring gloves?
They are built in a very similar way: both models have 8 oz padding, a Skintex outer, a neoprene interior, an attached thumb and a hook-and-loop strap. The main difference is the design: the Demon has a black and grey print with red logos.
Can I use them for boxing sparring?
These are MMA gloves with an open palm. Boxing sparring uses boxing gloves with a closed fist and different padding, so follow your gym's rules.
Are they suitable for advanced fighters?
Yes, the manufacturer lists them for athletes at every level. The right size and the condition of the padding are what count, not how long you have been training.
How do I dry them after sparring?
Undo the gloves and let them air dry away from radiators. Wipe the outer with a damp cloth and do not machine wash them.
The padding absorbs impact, but it cannot rule out injury. Spar at an intensity your partner can handle and your coach approves.

Venum pairs well-thought-out construction with bold design.
