English Boxing Helmet

The best protection in English boxing is to perfect your technique and especially your dodges so as not to receive blows. The second solution is to opt for a good English boxing helmet!

How does it protect you?

A boxing helmet, although it limits it, does not prevent a concussion, in general it will limit each impact, but its main protection remains against cuts and bruises, especially if it is associated with a good mouth guard.

Thanks to the density of the foam, when you receive a blow, the foam will compress, acting as a shock absorber and will also prevent the shock wave from spreading over your entire head.

A boxing helmet, yes but...
Some boxers refuse to wear a helmet so as not to reduce the field of vision, and that's the challenge, finding the helmet according to your needs, if it's a competitive fight, it is preferable and even mandatory to select a boxing helmet without cheekbones (mandatory) like the Metal boxe boxing helmet that does not reduce visibility. Whereas if you want a sparring boxing helmet they are more generously padded, and are equipped with cheekbone protection, or even a bar on the front to protect the nose.

As stated above, the main advantage of an English boxing helmet will be against cuts and bruises, but the main protection remains to improve your dodging and movement techniques in order to avoid taking blows.

Size and fit
The size of the helmet is also to be taken into account, a helmet that is too big risks moving during the fight and blocking the vision, it is therefore important to wear a well-adjusted helmet so as not to reduce your performance and ultimately receive more blows. For the choice of size, refer to the size guide or do not hesitate to contact us by email or by phone so, and for one-size-fits-all helmets, be careful not to have a head larger than average, in fact it would be possible that the size is not optimal.

The comfort of the helmet
Much progress has been made in recent years to optimize the comfort of an English boxing helmet, today the biggest brands such as Everlast, or Métal boxe offer helmets made from flexible material that fits the shape of the head and has an anti-perspirant and anti-slip lining inside. The weight of the helmets has also been optimized.

Focus on brands

A scrupulous selection of boxing helmets among the biggest brands in the world of combat sports, we trust these brands because of their experience, they support athletes, boxers, in international and amateur level competitions and offer ranges accessible to all.

How to choose a helmet
When you start a combat sport, it is not necessarily necessary to invest in a boxing helmet from the first class. On the other hand, if you like the activity and want to continue training, it may be interesting or even important to invest in a helmet.

Here are some things to consider before purchasing:

Find the balance between visibility, comfort and level of protection: Indeed, if you buy a boxing helmet with a grid, the head and the different parts will be well protected, on the other hand, visibility and mobility will be reduced.
With or without cheekbones: For training or a sparring session, the use of a boxing helmet with cheekbones is preferred, although opinions differ on this question on the effectiveness of cheekbone protection. Depending on the model, when the cheekbone protection is well positioned, the field of vision remains free. On the other hand, for boxing in competition, cheekbone protection is prohibited.
Comfort: The latest helmets are equipped with an inner lining in anti-perspirant and anti-slip fabrics, which makes the helmet much more comfortable.
The material: are you hesitating between a cheap boxing helmet and a leather helmet? It is certain that I will not advise you a low cost helmet, with a lower level of protection and duration. However, investing in a leather boxing helmet is not necessarily the right solution, brands like Métal boxe, Adidas, Leone or Everlast offer a range of very good quality helmets at affordable prices.
Here are some models to start in boxing:

• Métal boxe helmet: The famous French brand offers as many helmets as it is possible to provide, boxing helmets for children, for men or women with a wide range of prices for competitors as well as beginners.
