It is well known that boxing gloves can become very smelly due to the nourishment of bacteria and sweat, so the gloves need to be cleaned regularly and properly maintained. This will not only keep the gloves clean and odor-free, but also extend the service life of the gloves. Next, the maintenance method of boxing gloves made by Mango Boxing Equipment Factory:
1. Clean the inside of boxing gloves: Disinfect with a vinegar and water solution. Transfer the solution to a spray bottle and spray the inside of the gloves several times. You can also use white vinegar or apple cider vinegar to clean the gloves. For more antibacterial and antifungal effects, add 5-10 drops of tea tree oil to the vinegar and water solution. Avoid using harsh detergents on gloves, as they can damage the gloves and react to the skin.
2. Clean the outside of boxing gloves: Spray the vinegar and water solution on the outside of the gloves, then wipe them with a clean towel to remove dirt.
3. Care for boxing gloves: Many boxing gloves are made of leather, which is the skin of a living organism and can dry out like human skin. There are many commercial leather care solutions on the market, or you
can use lemon essential oil instead. Apply a small amount of care solution or a few drops of oil to the outside of the gloves, then wipe the outside of the gloves with a clean towel to remove any excess.
4. Dry your boxing gloves. Because bacteria in gloves need sweat and moisture to survive, keeping your gloves dry also means keeping them clean. After disinfecting the inside of the gloves with vinegar and cleaning the outside, let the gloves dry completely. To air-dry the gloves, open the gloves as much as possible and then attach the wrist straps to keep the gloves open. Hold the gloves out or hang them in a well-ventilated room, near an open window or in front of a fan. Even if you don't clean your gloves after each use, you should always let them dry after each use.
