A bear's paw designed for support.
When you're on the other side of the bear paw (and therefore holding it), having a practical product that fits well in your hand makes all the difference. Especially when you're doing a lot of training!
For a better grip, we've added a velcro strap to the glove: the bear paw stays in place better, and if you need to use your hand, the bear paw stays hooked to your wrist.
A mesh mesh covers your fingers to protect your phalanges.
How do you combine comfort and protection when you're multi-training?
So you don't have to choose, we've designed a product that meets these 2 criteria:
For resistance, the impact zone is covered with a PU coating designed by us to withstand friction and wear.
For comfort, the back of the bear paw is fitted with a suede pad: it absorbs energy at wrist level and the suede resists perspiration.
And to combine the 2, the different layers of bonded foam protect against impact and absorb energy.
Introducing our bear paw design!
For a better feel when you handle the bear paw, we've added a suede lining to the back of the bear paw and foam on the inside of the strap, in contact with the wrist.
And for added ergonomics, the bear paw is curved: so it absorbs impacts more naturally.
And finally, since the aim of training with bear paws is to combine speed and precision, we've left a small target in the center of the pad.
How was this product designed?
From the outset, we wanted a product designed for both coaches and boxers.
So from February 2018, our 4-person design team began exchanging with our suppliers, creating new tests and redefining our internal standards in order to raise our level of requirements.
What followed were in-house tests with 20 boxers and club tests.
That's why we're proud to present an ergonomic, technical... and beautiful product!
Any advice for bear paws?
Bear paw work is a must if you want to progress in boxing. It is performed with a partner who shows you different targets to hit while moving around (so the sequence is less mechanical than with the punching bag).
The aim is to learn certain combinations and thus gain in precision and speed during your sparring phases.
The combinations can vary ad infinitum, making the work motivating.
