About this product
Universal Boxing Hand Wraps – in stock at 361 Degrees Adventure in Tanzania.
Hand wraps are long strips of fabric wound around the hand and wrist before the gloves go on. They are the cheapest thing in a boxer-s kit bag and the most important.
The reason is anatomy. Your hand contains 27 bones, most of them small, and a punch drives force straight back through the knuckles into the wrist. A glove is padding on the outside – it protects the person you hit. It does very little to stop the bones of your hand spreading on impact, and almost nothing to stop your wrist folding if a punch lands at a slight angle. Wraps do both: they compress the hand into a single solid unit and brace the wrist so it cannot bend under load.
Wrist injuries are the ones that end training. A bruised knuckle heals in a week; a damaged wrist is months, and it recurs. Most of the length of a wrap should go on the wrist for exactly that reason.
180 inches is the standard adult length, which is what allows a proper wrap – several turns around the wrist, across the knuckles, between each finger and back. Shorter 120-inch wraps are for children and smaller hands, and adults using them tend to skip the wrist or the fingers.
Wash them. They sit directly against the skin, soak up sweat for an hour and then go back in a bag – in this humidity that is a guaranteed smell within days, and it is the wraps rather than the gloves that are usually responsible. Wash them after every few sessions and dry them in the shade.
