Rival RB11 Evolution – Professional Bag Gloves for Intense Training

The Rival RB11 Evolution are the evolution of traditional bag gloves and the perfect choice for boxers who train hard on the heavy bag on a regular basis. As the first Rival model to feature the innovative V-Strap Wrist Lock 2 system, they use dual angled straps to provide exceptional wrist and palm support. Inside, a 3 cm layer of dense closed-cell foam combined with latex has been specifically engineered for intensive bag work, delivering excellent punch feedback while helping protect your knuckles.

The outer shell is made from ultra-durable Super Microfibre PU. It is lighter than leather, resistant to cracking in flex areas, and absorbs less moisture, helping the gloves maintain their weight and performance over time. Rival's signature 15° angled cuff follows the natural position of the hand and, together with the ergonomic fit, keeps your fist properly aligned and compact during training.

The AirFlow Control System improves air circulation inside the glove, helping keep your hands cooler and drier during long training sessions. A soft inner lining provides comfort from the very first use, while embroidered Rival graphics complete the professional look.

Important: RB11 Evolution gloves are designed exclusively for heavy bag and mitt training. The dense padding is not suitable for sparring – never use these gloves against a training partner.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I use the RB11 Evolution for sparring?

No. The RB11 Evolution is designed exclusively for heavy bag and mitt training. The dense padding is optimized for power transfer and durability rather than partner safety.

Why do the gloves feel stiff at first?

The high-density foam requires a short break-in period. After several training sessions, the padding becomes more responsive and adapts better to the shape of your hand.

What is the difference between microfiber and genuine leather?

Super Microfibre PU is lighter than genuine leather, highly durable, and absorbs less moisture. This helps the gloves maintain their performance, weight, and appearance over time.

How does the V-Strap Wrist Lock 2 system work?

The dual angled straps wrap securely around the wrist and palm, providing excellent support and stability similar to lace-up gloves while maintaining the convenience of a hook-and-loop closure.

How should I care for the gloves?

After each training session, wipe the gloves with a dry cloth and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Do not expose them to direct sunlight, heaters, or tumble dryers.
