Multi-layered padding for MMA training
The RDX T6 MMA gloves feature a multi-layered padding construction. The GEL EFFICAX LINING™, together with the Shell Shock™ Gel Equilibrium layer, forms a cushioning system designed to reduce and distribute impact stresses during striking movements.
The 7 oz design offers more padding than many lightweight MMA competition gloves, making this model particularly suitable for training sessions that combine striking and grappling techniques. However, the protective effect always depends on training intensity, fit, technique, and the condition of the gloves.
Open Palm-O™ palm for grappling techniques
The open Palm-O™ design leaves a large part of the palm free. This allows for grappling grips, clinch techniques, and controlled transitions in ground fighting without the hand being completely enclosed by a closed glove.
The open construction also improves air circulation in the hand area. This can reduce heat buildup during longer training sessions and supports a more comfortable wearing experience.
Quick-EZ™ closure for an adjustable fit
The Quick-EZ™ hook-and-loop closure allows for individual adjustment to the wrist. A correctly closed glove supports stable positioning and helps reduce slippage during fast striking and grappling movements.
The closure must not be tightened so much that blood circulation is impaired. A suitable size and a secure, comfortable fit are crucial.
Durable Maya Hide™ artificial leather
The outer material is made of Maya Hide™ artificial leather. This is a synthetic material designed for durability, shape retention, and easy care. The term genuine leather is not used for this model.

Important safety and usage information
MMA gloves can reduce impact, but they do not provide complete protection against injuries. They do not replace correct technique, controlled training intensity, qualified supervision, or, if applicable, other prescribed protective equipment.
Damaged, heavily worn, or no longer securely closing gloves must not be used further. Normal training-related wear and tear, as well as damage due to improper use, incorrect care, or unsuitable training conditions, do not automatically constitute a material defect. The statutory warranty rights for actually defective goods remain unaffected.

Frequently asked questions about RDX T6 MMA gloves
What types of training are the RDX T6 MMA gloves suitable for?
The gloves are designed for MMA, grappling, ground fighting, clinch, pad, and controlled sparring exercises. The specific use should be adapted to the training form, intensity, and coach's instructions.
What does the 7 oz weight specification mean?
The 7 oz specification refers to the weight class or version of the glove model, not the glove size. The appropriate size must also be selected based on hand circumference and the RDX size chart.
Are the RDX T6 gloves made of genuine leather?
No. The model is made of Maya Hide™ artificial leather. This synthetic outer material is designed for durability, shape retention, and relatively uncomplicated care.
What is the function of the gel padding?
The combination of GEL EFFICAX LINING™ and Shell Shock™ Gel Equilibrium layer is designed to absorb and distribute impact stresses during striking movements across the padded area. However, injuries cannot be completely ruled out.
Are the RDX T6 gloves officially approved?
RDX states that the model is approved by FIGMMA, SMMAF, and EMMAA. The SMMAF also lists the RDX GGR-T6 model in its equipment list. Since approvals and regulations can change, use must be coordinated with the organizer or association before each competition.
Are the gloves suitable for all sparring?
No. Suitability depends on the form of sparring, training intensity, participants' experience, and the coach's instructions. Especially in partner training, intensity and protective equipment must be coordinated beforehand.
How do I find the right size?
Measure your hand circumference according to the RDX size chart. The glove should fit securely without causing pressure points or restricting blood circulation. The 7 oz specification does not replace the selection of the appropriate size.
How are the MMA gloves cleaned?
Wipe the surface after training with a soft, slightly damp cloth and let the gloves air dry completely. Washing machine, tumble dryer, radiators, and aggressive cleaning agents should be avoided.
