Where a training model covers two sessions a week, this one is aimed at \u003cstrong\u003eregular sparring and daily club use\u003c\/strong\u003e: full thickness leather, foam in three layers of different densities, reinforced ears.

Padding in \u003cstrong\u003ethree stacked densities\u003c\/strong\u003e works in stages. The firmer outer layer \u003cstrong\u003espreads the impact surface\u003c\/strong\u003e so a fist does not concentrate its energy on one point.

It does not tear under the repeated rub of gloves, does not crack at the folds, and above all it \u003cstrong\u003emoulds to the head\u003c\/strong\u003e: after a few weeks the headguard follows your skull and stops moving, which no synthetic does as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inside is \u003cstrong\u003esuede\u003c\/strong\u003e, chosen for two practical reasons: its velvet surface grips skin and hair slightly, which \u003cstrong\u003elimits slipping\u003c\/strong\u003e mid-round, and it stays soft against the skin even soaked, where a smooth synthetic turns abrasive as soon as the sweat arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trade-off is accepted: leather asks for care. A dry cloth after each session, air drying and a leather milk once or twice a year keep it supple for ten years.
