Inside The KG-1

 

KG-1 Lace-Up Gloves

 

Built on Consistency.

The KG-1 Lace-Up Gloves are the result of months of testing, refinement, and development. Designed for fighters who demand premium protection without sacrificing comfort, the KG-1 combines high-quality materials with a multi-density foam system to deliver confidence in every round.

Whether you're sparring, working the heavy bag, or sharpening your technique, every component has been engineered to perform.

Engineered Inside & Out

Every layer of the KG-1 serves a purpose. From the premium leather exterior to the advanced KilatGuard™ foam system, each material has been selected to maximize durability, protection, comfort, and longevity.

Unlike gloves that rely on a single block of foam, the KG-1 uses a carefully engineered multi-density construction that absorbs, disperses, and manages impact throughout the glove.

Construction Breakdown

01 — Premium Full Grain Leather

The outer shell is constructed from premium full grain cowhide leather chosen for its exceptional durability and natural feel.

Benefits:

  • Superior resistance to cracking and wear

  • Maintains its structure over years of training

  • Softens naturally while retaining protection

  • Premium finish with professional appearance

02 — Reinforced Structural Foam

Beneath the leather sits a reinforced structural foam layer that maintains the glove's shape while improving overall durability.

Purpose:

  • Preserves glove integrity

  • Prevents premature breakdown

  • Creates a stable striking surface

  • Supports long-term performance

03 — KilatGuard™ Layer One

The first impact layer uses high-density foam designed to absorb the initial force generated during punches.

Benefits:

  • Reduces stress on the knuckles

  • Minimizes harsh impact

  • Creates a firm striking platform

04 — KilatGuard™ Layer Two

The second layer utilizes medium-density foam to further disperse force throughout the glove.

Benefits:

  • Even impact distribution

  • Improved comfort during long sessions

  • Consistent punch feedback

05 — KilatGuard™ Layer Three

The third foam layer acts as an additional impact diffusion barrier.

Benefits:

  • Increased protection during sparring

  • Reduces shock transfer into the hand

  • Helps minimize hand fatigue

06 — KilatGuard™ Layer Four

The final cushioning layer provides long-term comfort while completing the glove's protective system.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced wrist and hand comfort

  • Better shock absorption

  • Maintains cushioning over time

07 — Reinforced Palm Padding

Strategically placed palm padding provides additional protection while blocking punches.

Benefits:

  • Increased comfort while catching shots

  • Improved palm protection

  • Better glove stability

08 — Antimicrobial Inner Lining

The interior features a moisture-wicking antimicrobial lining that helps keep the glove feeling fresh.

Benefits:

  • Reduces moisture build-up

  • Helps minimize odor

  • Improves comfort during extended training

  • Faster drying between sessions

Performance Features

Advanced 4-Layer Protection

The KilatGuard™ system combines four carefully selected foam densities to absorb impact efficiently while maintaining excellent feedback and balance.

Balanced Performance

Designed for fighters who split their training between sparring and heavy bag work, the KG-1 delivers a balanced feel without being overly soft or excessively firm.

Ergonomic Hand Position

A naturally curved hand compartment encourages proper fist formation, reducing hand fatigue while promoting better punching mechanics.

Secure Lace-Up Fit

The traditional lace-up closure delivers superior wrist support and a locked-in feel preferred by experienced fighters and coaches.

Built to Last

Every stitch, panel, and material has been selected for durability under daily training conditions.

The KG-1 is built for consistent use—not occasional workouts.
