MMA Gloves
MMA gloves are open-palm, fingerless hand protectors worn in mixed martial arts to guard the knuckles during striking while leaving the fingers free to grip, clinch, and grapple. Torrab Sports manufactures custom MMA gloves for gyms, fight brands and distributors that sell training and competition gear under their own name. Our factory in Sialkot builds each pair from cut hide to finished glove in one place, so a single supplier covers the leather, the foam, the stitching and the branding from first brief to boxed delivery.
MMA academies, grappling gyms and combat sports distributors across the UK, Europe, the Gulf and North America order their wholesale MMA gloves through us. They reorder because the knuckle padding holds its shape, the wrist strap stays locked through a takedown, and the open-palm fit keeps full grip for ground work.

Our MMA Gloves Range
We produce custom MMA gloves across several materials and build levels, from a lightweight club-training glove through to a pro-fight competition build. Most clients order one core style first and expand once they see how it performs in their market.
Genuine Leather MMA Gloves
Genuine leather MMA gloves sit at the premium end of the range and stay the first choice for serious academies and fight brands. The cowhide or goatskin shell breathes, resists abrasion and keeps its shape through heavy bag, pad and sparring work, while the padded knuckle bar shields the striking surface without stiffening the hand for grappling. This build suits training and competition alike and carries the highest retail price across the range.
Microfibre PU MMA Gloves
Microfibre PU MMA gloves give brands a lighter, easy-clean shell at a lower unit cost, which makes them the strongest volume option for club stock and retail. The synthetic PU leather wipes down fast, holds a Pantone-matched colour without fading, and pairs with the same multi-density foam core as the leather line, so the protection stays consistent while the price drops.

Order Process
Artwork & Order
Send us your logo, colourway, and the weight and size split you need across the order.
Designs & Colors
We produce a full-colour mockup of the glove and packaging for your sign-off before production.
Sample & Bulk
We build a physical sample for your approval, then move the approved design into bulk production.
QC & Delivery
We inspect every pair before packing, then ship by the most cost-effective route to your door.
Aftersales
We remake or discount any pair with a genuine quality fault, because we work for the reorder.
Sparring MMA Gloves
Sparring MMA gloves carry a thicker 7oz hybrid pad so partners trade rounds and drill takedowns without taking damage. The extra multi-layer foam cushions both hands during striking, and the reinforced stitching survives repeated grappling contact. Gyms running regular partner work order this weight as their default club glove.
Competition MMA Gloves
Competition MMA gloves run at the 4oz weight used for sanctioned fights, with a minimal shell and a firm knuckle bar that meets the standard rules of most major MMA promotions. The pre-curved shape locks the hand in a natural fist while the open palm keeps grip for the clinch. Share the requirements for a licensed event at the briefing stage, and we confirm the specification before production.
Kids and Youth MMA Gloves
Youth MMA gloves cover a market most suppliers treat as an afterthought, since a scaled-down adult glove rarely fits a child’s hand. We build the youth range on a dedicated smaller hand compartment with lighter padding, the same open-palm structure and closure quality as the adult line, so junior members train safely rather than in a token size.
Women's MMA Gloves
Women’s MMA gloves use a narrower hand compartment and a fit shaped for a smaller wrist, rather than a resized men’s glove. The build carries across all weights and both materials, and it suits academies running dedicated women’s classes that want proper kit throughout their inventory.
Materials and Construction
Where most suppliers describe a glove as “high-quality leather,” we publish the real specification, so a sourcing decision rests on the materials and the build rather than an adjective.
| Material | Padding | Best Application | Key Properties |
|---|---|---|---|
| Genuine Cowhide Leather | High-density injected foam | Pro fight and heavy sparring | Durable, abrasion-resistant, holds shape |
| Goatskin Leather | Multi-layer moulded foam | Premium competition gloves | Supple, lightweight, strong grip feel |
| Microfibre PU Leather | Multi-density foam | Volume training and club stock | Lightweight, easy-clean, colour-fast, cost-effective |
| Maya Hide / Engineered Leather | Layered PU foam | Entry-level and youth gloves | Affordable, flexible, consistent finish |
Every pair is triple-stitched at the primary seams, the hand-stitched construction Sialkot is known for, so the shell and padding hold together under heavy load rather than splitting at the knuckle. The same moulded-foam build carries into our boxing gloves, so a brand running both keeps one protection standard across the range.
The open-palm design leaves individual finger loops and an open thumb free, which lets a fighter grip, clinch and transition to grappling without removing the glove. A pre-curved shape holds the hand in a natural fist for striking, the palm carries a breathable panel that moves sweat, and wrist support runs on an adjustable hook-and-loop strap built to hold the joint through a takedown.
Custom OEM and Private Label Production
Launching your own glove line is a real commercial step, and it works best when the factory is set up for OEM and private label production rather than treating custom orders as an exception. Private label work accounts for a large share of what we produce, and the sequence runs in seven stages from first contact to delivery.
- Initial brief and material choice. You confirm the shell material, the padding level, the weights and the branding you need. We advise on the build that fits your market before any sampling begins.
- Digital mockup approval. We render the glove and its packaging in your colours and logo placement, and revisions at this stage cost nothing.
- Physical sample production. We produce a pre-production sample in your specified material and colourway, invoiced upfront and credited in full against your first bulk order.
- Sample review and refinement. You test the sample for fit, padding and grip, and one round of minor changes is included in the sample cost.
- Bulk production. We run a dedicated batch for your order so colour, padding and stitching stay consistent across every pair.
- Quality control inspection. We check each pair for stitch integrity, foam placement, closure strength and logo alignment before packing.
- Packing and dispatch. Orders ship in your branded boxes with full export documentation to your market.
Wholesale Pricing and Minimum Order Quantities
Our wholesale MMA gloves pricing scales with order volume, so a single gym and a national distributor both find a workable tier.
| Order Tier | Minimum Units | Pricing Level | Typical Lead Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter Wholesale | 25 pairs per design | Standard wholesale rate | 20–25 working days |
| Trade Volume | 100–299 pairs | Volume discount applied | 18–22 working days |
| Distributor | 300–999 pairs | Distributor pricing with full branding | 16–20 working days |
| Container Level | 1,000 pairs and above | Factory-direct pricing, FOB Sialkot | 25–35 working days |
Per-pair pricing moves with the shell material and the padding build. Genuine leather and pro-fight gloves carry a premium over PU club stock, and the gap is narrower than most buyers expect at factory-direct rates. We provide a full itemised quote within 24 to 48 hours of a brief. New trade accounts pay a 50% deposit on confirmation with the balance before shipment, and approved reorders carry no minimum quantity.

Who And Supply
Our wholesale client base spans several business types across the combat sports industry. What they share is a need for consistent padding and stitch quality, reliable lead times, and a manufacturer that communicates clearly through the order.
MMA and Grappling Gyms
Club-branded gloves build identity and sell to members at a retail margin. Gyms that order our boxing hand wraps in bulk add MMA gloves to the same run, so a member buys a full training set in one place.
Fight Brands and Combat Sports Labels
Fight brands adding gloves to a kit line need a maker who reads both the sport and the build. We hold each client’s colourways and logo files on record for fast reorders without a fresh brief.
Combat Sports Retailers
Retail buyers need a glove that sells to a broad customer base and holds enough margin to earn its shelf space. We supply ready-to-brand stock alongside full custom production for retailers building their own-brand range.
Distributors and Import Businesses
Distributors gain from our container pricing and our export documentation experience across the EU, the Gulf and North America. We handle certificates of origin and market-specific labelling for bulk glove shipments.
Event Organisers and Promotions
Promotions order event-branded gloves for competitors, corner teams and retail on fight night. Our production cycle covers tight event deadlines on small and mid-size runs.
Manufacturing in Sialkot and What It Means for Your Supply Chain
Sialkot has produced hand-stitched fight gloves at export scale for over a century, and the city holds the skilled labour, leather supply and export infrastructure that keep our lead times predictable. Fight gloves are a core product of the Sialkot combat sports industry, so the tanneries, foam suppliers and trim makers we rely on all sit locally rather than across several countries, which keeps our pricing stable.
Torrab Sports owns its production floor and employs its cutters, stitchers and finishers directly. Orders do not pass through a chain of subcontractors, and we communicate with buyers through the whole run, so you know the status of your gloves at every stage of production.
Customisation Beyond the Gloves Themselves
Brand consistency across the glove and its packaging signals a professional product at retail. We brand every touchpoint a buyer sees when the box is opened.
Logo and Cuff Branding
Your logo appears on the strap and back-hand panel by print, embossing or embroidery, and a woven brand label is sewn into the wrist. We match the placement and finish to your artwork on the sample before bulk.
Custom Colourways
You choose the shell colour, the trim and any contrast panel, with Pantone matching for an exact brand shade across leather and PU.
Branded Packaging
Custom glove boxes, hang tags and printed inserts make the pair retail-ready. We agree every packaging element on the sample before production begins.
Woven Labels and Trim
Fine-gauge woven labels, flag panels and sponsor marks are all available, approved on a real glove before the bulk run.
Quality Control at Every Stage
Quality control runs across three production stages rather than a single end-of-line check, because a fault caught mid-run costs far less than a rejected batch.
At incoming materials, we check each leather and foam batch for thickness, density and colour before it enters the cutting room. During the run, supervisors compare the first pairs off each batch against the approved sample and spot-check at intervals. At final inspection, we check every pair for stitch integrity, foam placement, closure strength and logo alignment.
We provide photographic QC reports on request, and high-volume orders can take a third-party pre-shipment inspection from an agency such as QIMA. Gyms that add our MMA shorts to a kit order see the same per-pair inspection applied across every product line, so the standard stays level.
Global Shipping and Export
We export MMA gloves to businesses in over 40 countries, from single courier samples to full container loads. Sample and small orders ship via DHL Express or FedEx International Priority, with three to five working days to the UK and Europe. Mid-volume orders move by air freight in five to eight working days to the UK, USA and Australia. Large volume and container orders ship by sea freight, with transit to major UK and European ports running 18 to 25 days depending on the destination.
All shipments include a commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin. We hold specific experience with UK post-Brexit import documentation, EU customs requirements, UAE and GCC import processes, and Australian import standards.

Frequently ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the minimum order for custom MMA gloves?
The minimum is 25 pairs per design and colourway for new custom orders. This applies across leather and PU builds and all weights. Approved reorders on an existing design carry no minimum quantity.
What materials do you use for your MMA gloves?
We build in genuine cowhide and goatskin leather for premium and pro-fight gloves, and in microfibre PU or engineered leather for volume and youth lines. Every build uses a multi-density moulded-foam knuckle bar, with a high-density injected-foam option for the pro-fight range.
What glove weights do you produce?
We produce 4oz, 6oz and 7oz for adults, plus lighter builds for youth. The 4oz weight suits sanctioned competition, while 7oz carries extra padding for safe sparring and drilling.
What is the difference between competition and sparring MMA gloves?
Competition gloves run at 4oz with a minimal shell and a firm knuckle bar for sanctioned fights. Sparring gloves run at 7oz with a thicker hybrid pad, so partners trade rounds and drill takedowns without taking damage.
Do the gloves keep an open palm for grappling?
Yes. Every MMA glove uses an open-palm, fingerless design with individual finger loops and an open thumb, so a fighter grips, clinches and transitions to grappling without removing the glove.
Can I order a sample before placing a bulk order?
Yes. We produce a physical pre-production sample in your specified material and colourway. The sample cost is invoiced upfront and credited in full against your first bulk order.
Do you brand the gloves and the packaging?
Yes. We print, emboss or embroider your logo on the strap and back-hand panel, sew in a woven label, match your Pantone colours across the shell, and supply branded glove boxes and hang tags. Every element is confirmed on the sample before bulk.
Do you make youth and kids MMA gloves?
Yes. Our youth range works from a dedicated smaller hand compartment with lighter padding and the same open-palm structure and closure quality as the adult line, rather than a scaled-down adult glove.
Do you provide FOB pricing for container shipments?
Yes. We provide FOB Sialkot pricing on all container-level orders of 1,000 pairs and above, and we can recommend established freight forwarders for the Sialkot-to-destination route if you do not already have one.
What payment terms do you offer for new trade accounts?
New trade accounts run at a 50% deposit on order confirmation, with the balance due before shipment. Established accounts can discuss extended terms with our sales team directly.
