Sports gear used regularly requires a good amount of care and maintenance, and a sportsman is only as good as the way he treats his gear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We know the importance of correct footwork, hip movement, and hand positioning, but a boxer\u2019s equipment is also an important piece of the puzzle that needs to be taken care of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the top of the list is a boxer\u2019s pair of gloves, the one item that is commonly replaced too early due to miss care and a lack of regular maintenance. Over time a glove will produce enough bacteria to cause irreversible damage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nobody likes a foul-smelling glove that builds up fungus and mildew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The question is how can you properly maintain your pair of gloves? They can\u2019t be turned inside out like a sock or jumper, and you can\u2019t put your gloves in a washing machine without destroying the material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve put together a step-by-step guide to help you sustain your pair of gloves, so you won\u2019t have to keep requesting a new pair for Christmas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First things first, there are many places that a pair of boxing gloves do not live. Other than making the short trip from house to the boxing ring, they do not live in a gym bag. Period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We want to avoid leaving our gloves tucked away in the boot of the car and forgotten about until it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s likely to build up bacteria and ruin the quality of the glove. Have you ever accidentally left a protein shaker sealed tight in a gym bag overnight, only to open it the next day and be greeted by a waft of pungent, foul-smelling air?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is exactly what you\u2019re doing when you forget to take your gloves out of your bag and store them properly. They begin to stink of sweat and it ruins the quality of the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not only should you avoid leaving your gloves in a gym bag, but you also don\u2019t want to store them in a drawer, in the cupboard under the stairs, or at the back of your closet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your gloves need time to breathe and recover from all of the moisture that\u2019s built up after a hefty sparring session. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s why we recommend you hang them up rather than let them sit idly in a dark space. But before we get to storage, we need to make sure they\u2019ve been cleaned before storage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
