Caged 'X' Series

At a glance: The Caged 'X' Series is a premium line of training equipment for boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai and MMA, covering gloves, shin guards, headguards, MMA gloves and pads.

What the Caged 'X' Series offers

The Caged 'X' Series is a complete training range built around a single design philosophy: premium construction for athletes who train regularly and compete. The collection includes boxing and kickboxing gloves, shin guards, headguards, MMA gloves, and focus mitts and kick shields. Every piece shares the same aesthetic and build quality, so you can assemble a matched set of gear that performs consistently across disciplines. The gloves are suitable for bag work, pad work and sparring in boxing, kickboxing and Muay Thai, while the shin guards cover both light sparring and full-contact sessions. The MMA gloves bridge striking and grappling, and the headguards offer cheek and chin protection for controlled sparring.

Choosing the right size

For the boxing gloves, 10 oz suits lighter athletes and competition use, 12 oz works for pad work and lighter sparring, 14 oz is the most versatile choice for regular training and sparring, and 16 oz offers maximum padding for heavy sparring and bag work. The shin guards come in four sizes: S, M, L and XL, measured by shin length and calf circumference. The MMA gloves are offered in S/M and L/XL, designed to fit snugly for grappling while leaving the fingers free. Headguards follow the same S, M, L, XL sizing as the shin guards, based on head circumference. If you train in multiple disciplines, the 14 or 16 oz gloves and size L shin guards cover the broadest range of training scenarios.

Frequently asked questions

Which Caged 'X' Series glove is the best choice?

The Caged Boxing Gloves 'X' Series in 14 or 16 oz is the best choice for most athletes. Fourteen ounces offers a balance of protection and speed for regular sparring and pad work, while 16 oz provides extra cushioning for heavy bag sessions and intense sparring. Both weights are versatile enough for boxing, kickboxing and Muay Thai, and the premium construction supports frequent training and competition use.

What size boxing gloves should I choose from the Caged 'X' Series?

Choose 10 oz if you compete at a lighter weight or need gloves for sanctioned bouts, 12 oz for pad work and technical sparring, 14 oz for all-round training including regular sparring, or 16 oz if you spar heavily or work the bags frequently. Your body weight and training intensity matter more than your experience level: heavier athletes and harder hitters benefit from 16 oz, while lighter fighters often prefer 12 or 14 oz for daily training.

Can I use the Caged 'X' Series for both boxing and kickboxing?

Yes, the Caged 'X' Series boxing gloves work equally well for boxing, kickboxing and Muay Thai. The glove design, padding distribution and wrist support suit all three disciplines, and the shin guards are specifically built for kickboxing and Muay Thai sparring and pad work. If you cross-train or compete in multiple striking sports, the 'X' Series gives you one set of gear that performs across all of them without compromise.
