Best Fitness Brands for Boxing Workout Clothes

Boxing is a high-intensity, high-impact sport. This means lots of movement, lots of calories burned, and lots of sweat! Proper workout clothing will help you get the most out of your workout, stay cool and focused, and recover faster. Before putting on your hand wraps and boxing gloves, you must dress for success! 

What Do I Wear For A Boxing Workout?

Tops: Tank Top, T-Shirt, or Sports Bra

When boxing, opt for a close-fitting athletic top that wicks away moisture. The best fitness clothes will be made of high-quality material that will help you stay fresh and sharp on the heavy bag, so avoid anything that doesn’t fit you properly. You don’t want baggy fabric getting in the way of your punches. Women, also keep in mind that boxing involves a lot of bouncing movements, so starting with a medium- or high-intensity sports bra with sweat-wicking capabilities is a must.  

Bottoms: Shorts or Leggings

It’s up to you! Leggings may be preferable on days when you’re training knees because they’ll add an added layer of protection for your legs. You can also find leggings that offer moisture-wicking and compression. Avoid baggy bottoms like basketball shorts that will catch your knees, and do the squat test to check for any see-through areas before you work out in public. 

Shoes: Sneakers or Barefoot

While specially designed boxing shoes are always a good call for heavy bag workouts, cross trainers are a great alternative. Just avoid running shoes – their thick soles make the movements required during boxing tricky. You can also train barefoot if you’re kickboxing! It’s all a matter of preference, and FightCamp’s heavy-duty flooring is sturdy enough to protect your home from scuffs and scrapes, but gentle enough for your bare feet. 

Outerwear: Sweatshirt & Joggers

While the best workout clothes for boxing will always be close-fitting, you may sometimes want to throw on an outer layer especially if you’re training outside. The key to boxing outerwear is to pick a well-fitting sweatshirt that isn’t baggy or sporting any ripped ends that could get in the way of your movements. Joggers like the Legends Hawthorne Tech Jogger are a great alternative to baggy sweatpants with a fleece lining to keep you warm and a super stretch to keep you comfortable and flexible.
