Fit Guide

Size Guide

Every NLB product is crafted for a precise, performance fit. Use the charts below to find your perfect size. When between sizes, we recommend sizing up for gloves and sizing true for apparel.

Section 01

Boxing Gloves

Glove weight is measured in ounces (oz). Choose based on your weight and intended use.

Glove Weight	Fighter Weight	Best For	NLB Recommendation
8 oz	Under 100 lbs	Competition / Sparring (youth)	NLB Junior Series
10 oz	100–130 lbs	Competition / Light sparring	NLB Pro Series, Dragon Collection
12 oz	130–160 lbs	Sparring / Bag work	NLB Signature, Pearl Heritage
14 oz	160–180 lbs	Sparring / Heavy bag	NLB Dragon, Cayman Series
16 oz	180–210 lbs	Sparring / Training	NLB Python Leather, Croc-X
18 oz	210+ lbs	Heavy sparring / Big hitters	NLB Heavyweight Edition

💡 Pro Tip: For bag work only, you can go 2 oz lighter than your sparring weight. For competition, check your sanctioning body's requirements — most amateur competitions require 10–12 oz.

2.Keep tape parallel to the floor
3.Take measurement while breathing normally

Waist

2.Keep tape snug but not tight
3.Measure at the narrowest point, typically above the navel

Hand (for gloves)

1.Make a loose fist
2.Wrap tape around the widest part of your knuckles
3.Do not include the thumb — this gives your hand circumference
