The Ultimate in Martial Arts

I am looking for a good quality pair of focus mitts for muay thai training, any suggestions. My training partner is a rather large guy and has ripped the hand hold of my last set.

I have some angled focus mitts, but most of the time I use full Thai pads unless we are doing pure hands.

I like to be able to call kicks or knees when I'm holding pads for someone and you just can't do that with focus mitts.

I have these and they have held up really well:

Twins curved focus mitts are good for punch elbow work.

So far I'm very pleased with my Boon Sport equipment.

well, I got a set of Muay Thai kicking pads, there allright

I also have panther mitts, which is the angel mitts for working the hands.

the punch mitts are good, that takes off stress on the wrists.

then I have a air bag or bunnana bag.

it just depends on what your working on at the moment...l0l...and how much you want to get beat up on.
