About Fairtex

Forged in the Fires of Pattaya

The Fairtex story is unique in combat sports. The brand was built in 1971 on a fundamental principle: the world’s best equipment must be tested by the world’s best fighters. This led to the legendary Fairtex Training Center in Pattaya. Consequently, this provided the ultimate proving ground for every glove, shin guard, and pad.

This direct feedback loop from elite athletes to their craftsmen is what defines Fairtex. For instance, they cut every pattern for true striking mechanics. They also calibrate every layer of foam for stable impact absorption. The result is dependable gear with a clean, professional aesthetic that performs with relentless consistency, session after session.

Why Your Training Demands Fairtex

• Ring-Tested by Champions: Champions battle-harden this gear at the famed Fairtex Training Center. Top athletes in ONE Championship and the UFC also trust it. You are training with professional-grade standards.
• Innovative, Ergonomic Design: You can experience superior anatomical fits and locked-in wrist support. Fairtex also shapes their shin guards for real kick mechanics, all for your comfort and protection.
• Unmatched Durability: Fairtex builds its equipment with premium materials and expert Thai craftsmanship. As a result, it is designed to withstand years of intense, daily training camps.
• Balanced Protection & Feedback: Their multi-density foams provide the perfect blend of crisp feedback for padwork. Furthermore, they offer reliable shock absorption for sparring.

Train with Championship Confidence

Fairtex designs its gear for an athletic and secure fit. For optimal performance, you should use 10–12 oz gloves for bag work and 14–16 oz for sparring. However, always adhere to your gym’s rules. Your shin guards should wrap the tibia without gaps, so adjust the straps for a stable feel.

Pro Care Tip: Always air-dry your gear fully after sessions. In addition, avoid direct heat and clean with mild products. This preserves the integrity of the foams and premium materials.
