What is the AS2 designed for — competition or training?

The AS2 is designed primarily for amateur competition use, built to the standards required for sanctioned bouts. The official red and blue colourways meet governing body requirements. Like most competition gloves, they are well-suited for competition-prep sparring and pad work, but for heavy daily bag work, a dedicated training or bag glove is recommended to preserve the competition padding.

What is Quadro Dome 5 Technology and Max-Shock™ Equilibrium Foam?

Quadro Dome 5 Technology distributes impact force across five zones in the knuckle mould to reduce peak stress at any single point. Max-Shock™ Equilibrium Foam in the cuff panels provides targeted cushioning for the wrist area, which absorbs impact when blocking kicks and body shots. Together they form a two-zone protection system — knuckle and wrist — in one glove.

What weight should I choose — 10 oz or 12 oz?

Competition glove weight is typically assigned by your weight class under governing body rules. Lighter weight classes generally use 10 oz; heavier weight classes use 12 oz. Check your federation's current rules for your specific division before purchasing. For training, many fighters use 12 oz or 14 oz for additional hand protection regardless of competition weight.

How does the AS2 differ from the IBA-approved gloves?

The IBA-approved gloves are certified by the IBA (International Boxing Association) for AIBA-sanctioned events. The AS2 is an amateur competition glove built to similar standards but marketed for broader amateur competition use. If your specific event requires IBA-certified equipment, choose the RDX IBA Boxing Gloves. If competing in other amateur circuits, the AS2 is an excellent and well-equipped alternative.
