Frequently Asked Questions

What does IMMAF approval mean for MMA competition gloves?

IMMAF (International Mixed Martial Arts Federation) is the world governing body for amateur MMA. IMMAF-approved gloves have been tested and certified to meet the safety and construction standards required for sanctioned IMMAF competitions worldwide. If you compete in IMMAF-affiliated events, using approved gloves is required. Always verify the current approved equipment list with your event organizer before competing.

What is the difference between shooter grappling gloves and standard MMA sparring gloves?

Shooter (or grappling) gloves are designed for open-finger grappling, submissions, and ground work — the fingers are split and the palm is open for grip. Standard MMA sparring gloves have a larger knuckle pad to allow striking practice with a training partner. Shooter gloves are the competition standard for IMMAF-format bouts where the open-hand format is mandated.

What is EVA-LUTION™ Sheet padding?

EVA-LUTION™ Sheet is RDX's dense ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam technology used in a flat sheet format beneath the IMF foam layer. EVA is valued in protective equipment for its consistent energy absorption — it compresses on impact and returns to shape quickly, maintaining protective performance over repeated training sessions.

How do I choose the right size?

Shooter gloves are sized XS through XL by hand circumference. XS suits circumferences under 6.5 inches; S suits 6.5–7 inches; M suits 7–7.5 inches; L suits 7.5–8 inches; XL suits 8 inches and above. For IMMAF competition, confirm your event's size requirements by weight class before ordering.
