What are Thai pads used for?

Thai pads (also called kick pads or kicking shields) are held by a training partner or coach to receive strikes — punches, kicks, elbows, and knees. They're a core training tool in Muay Thai, kickboxing, and MMA striking work because they allow full-power technique drilling in a controlled setting. Unlike a heavy bag, a pad holder can move and angle the pads to simulate real defensive positions.

What does the Calibrated Impact Diffusion Sheet do?

The Calibrated Impact Diffusion Sheet is a structured foam layer positioned to intercept and spread incoming force before it reaches the pad holder's forearm and hand. By diffusing the force laterally across the sheet rather than transferring it directly through the pad, it reduces fatigue and impact discomfort for the holder during high-volume pad work.

How do I wear and secure Thai pads correctly?

Thread your forearm through the arm sleeve so your hand grips the internal handle. The Quick-EZ™ hook-and-loop strap wraps around the forearm to lock the pad in place. The pad should feel firm but not cutting off circulation. Always check the strap tension before a session — loose pads shift on impact and increase injury risk for the holder.

How do I care for Maya Hide leather Thai pads?

Wipe the outer surface after each session with a lightly damp cloth to remove sweat and debris. Allow them to air-dry fully before storing. Avoid storing in a sealed gym bag while still wet. Periodically apply a leather conditioner to maintain the surface and prevent cracking. Do not soak or machine wash.
