Boxing Hoodies & Sweatshirts
Boxing hoodies and sweatshirts do two jobs: they keep you warm on the walk to the gym and they hold the heat in while you skip and shadow box before the gloves go on. The 26 tops here from Adidas, Fly, Under Armour, Carbon Claw, Pro Box and our own Boxfit label cover pullover hoodies, zip-throughs, quarter-zips and sleeveless hoodies, with prices from £14.99, so you can buy one for training and one for wearing.
Choosing boxing hoodies for training or everyday
For training, pick a lighter fleece or a poly sweat top that you can work in without overheating. The Fly and BXF performance tops and the Adidas boxing hoody sit in this bracket, as do sleeveless sweatshirts, which are the classic pre-session warm-up top because they free the shoulders for pad work. For everyday wear, a heavier cotton-rich hoodie holds its shape and colour through the wash. The Under Armour fleece hoodie and the Boxfit large logo and Vintage 2006 hoodies are the thicker, warmer options in the range.
Pullover, zip or crew neck?
Pullover hooded sweatshirts are the standard and give the warmest neck coverage. A full or quarter-zip is easier to get off between rounds without pulling it over a head guard or a sweaty head, which is why coaches tend to wear them. A crew sweatshirt layers neatly under a jacket and looks smarter on fight night in the corner. Sizes run in standard UK unisex sizing; if you plan to wear it over a sweat top or base layer, go up one.
Match your club or your kit
Our own Boxfit hoodies, including the Anthem, Home of Boxing and Vintage 2006 designs, are only available from us and pair with the rest of the Boxfit branded clothing range. If you want the same look for the whole team, boxing tracksuits add matching bottoms and jackets, and there are junior sizes in kids boxing sweatshirts.
Why buy a boxing hoodie from Boxfit UK
We are a boxing shop, not a fashion outlet, so the hoodies we stock are the ones boxers and coaches actually wear to the gym. Orders go out with express UK delivery, and you can try sizes on in our Essex store. If a colour or size is missing online, ring us six days a week and we will check stock in the warehouse.
Frequently asked questions
Should I train in a hoodie?
A hoodie is good for warming up, skipping and shadow boxing, because holding the heat in loosens the shoulders and back. Take it off before hard pad or bag rounds so you do not overheat. Do not confuse a hoodie with a sauna suit for making weight.
What size boxing hoodie should I buy?
Take your usual UK top size for a standard fit. If you want to layer over a sweatshirt or base layer, or prefer an oversized look, choose one size up. Each product page shows the brand's own size chart, so measure your chest before ordering.
Are there boxing hoodies for kids?
Yes. Junior versions of the Boxfit branded hoodies are made in kids' sizes, and there is a full range of children's boxing tops in our kids clothing section. The same sizing advice applies: size up if your child is between sizes or growing quickly.
