Who This Glove Is For

The Rival RS60V Workout Sparring Gloves 2.0 are Rival's most affordable entry into the sparring category, designed for beginners and casual training. The V (Velcro) version features 1.5 inches of moulded PU foam padding, a conic design that angles the wrist 15 degrees for natural alignment, and a large punching surface to maximize partner protection. The roomy hand compartment fits hand wraps comfortably. Rival recommends at least 10–20 rounds of bag work to break in the layered foam before sparring. Updated 2.0 version features a refreshed look and improved materials over the original RS60V.
