Bōgu Kumite is a phrase meaning “sparring match using protective armor.” Bōgu Kumite is a mid-traditional sparring competition using full-contact punches, kicks, and blocks. Modified kendo armor is worn as protective equipment and is widely used in various Martial Arts that fight without weapons, such as our classical Ryukyu Kempo Karate system. Generally, only strikes that would hinder an opponent had they not been wearing the protective equipment are scored.
Our Kumite Gloves are boxing style gloves designed expressly for martial art sparring. Limited mobile design to allow for powerful punching and firm blocking while still allowing simple open-hand grabs. These Kumite Gloves consist of heavily padded knuckle protection continuing throughout the back of the hand and thumb and easily adjustable hook and loop wrist straps.
