View this post on Instagram
Recognizing that many Muay Thai fighters are now practicing different disciplines, including western style boxing, Fairtex has recently extended their line of equipment to include boxing specific gear.
Early 2020, they released Fairtex Speed & Accuracy Focus Mitts (FMV15), along with Fairtex Boxing Paddles (BXP1) and Fairtex Boxing Sticks (BXS1). Read this article for a complete Fairtex FMV15 Review.
Design & Materials
The Fairtex FMV15 Focus Mitts use a black and gold color scheme. They use a durable and water resistant synthetic fabric, Fairtex’s signature Syntek leather. This fabric shows less wear and does not take on the odor that genuine leather does. All the while being equally as durable as the traditional material. These pads can withstand the punishment from your fighters, round after round.
Compact & Lightweight for Speed
Super compact and ultra-light weight, the Fairtex FMV15 really are perfect for speed. The pair weighs 0.37kg, with each piece measuring under 200 grams. Individual finger slots and right/left hand designation give you the most control possible while holding these pads.
Precision & Accuracy Training
The striking surface measures 16 cm wide by 19 cm high, with a 5 x 5 cm gold target in the center. The Fairtex logo is printed above the target in the brand’s traditional font, with a “Handmade in Thailand, Syntek Leather” stamp below.
These mitts are specifically designed for accuracy training and drills, making them a fantastic choice for boxing-focused workouts.
Comfort & Fit
A super contoured design allows your hand to fit naturally inside the mitts. The unfinished fabric interior provides a soft, non-slip surface, preventing your hands from sliding when sweaty.
Other key comfort features include:
✔ Open fingertips to accommodate different hand sizes
✔ Exterior-stitched seams to prevent irritation and pressure points
✔ Ventilation holes across the back and finger compartments for airflow
Punch Mitts
Shock Absorption & Hand Support
Each mitt includes a padded cushion the size of a golf ball in the palm area. This provides:
✔ Additional shock absorption and impact protection
✔ Palm and wrist support to maintain a neutral hand position
✔ Enhanced grip for both large and small hands
Exceptional Craftsmanship & Durability
The Fairtex FMV15 Focus Mitts feature double-stitched seams for enhanced durability. The bottom seam is reinforced with lace, ensuring long-lasting performance even with heavy use.
The expert craftsmanship and high-quality padding make these mitts a reliable training tool.
Final Thoughts: Are They Worth It?
In review, the Fairtex FMV15 Focus Mitts are perfect for speed and accuracy training. Their small surface area makes them ideal for boxing drills and precision striking.
