Frequently asked questions

Where should I start when equipping a boxing club?

As a priority: 3–4 pairs of F6 KARA mitts, 2 F6 KARA Thai pads, 2 F6 KARA coach chest protectors. This set-up covers most sessions on a controlled budget. Then, depending on your disciplines, add kick shields and an APEX Pro stick.

Should I choose the same range for all my equipment?

Not necessarily, but it is practical. Sticking to one range (e.g. T15 Noir) ensures a consistent feel, lifespan and look. Mixing ranges works too – for example Mark Pro mitts with F6 KARA Thai pads if the budget is limited.

What is the difference between a Thai pad and a kick shield?

A Thai pad is held on the forearm, allowing the coach to move and guide combinations. A kick shield is a large flat shield held with both hands or against the body, ideal for absorbing isolated power strikes (roundhouse, front kick, heavy knee). The two complement each other.

Is RDX equipment suitable for teaching children?

Yes. The F6 KARA and T15 ranges are used in Swiss junior clubs. For children (5–12 years), the mitts are held by the adult coach – there is no need to buy kids' mitts. What matters is that the child's gloves fit properly (see kids' boxing gloves).

How long does RDX coaching equipment last?

In a club with 5 sessions a week: 2–4 years for the F6 KARA and T15 ranges, 4–8 years for the genuine-leather Mark Pro. In private use (1–2x a week), the same items easily last 5–10 years. Care – wiping after every session, storing away from damp – doubles the lifespan.
