Custom MMA gloves sourced from specialist manufacturers in Sialkot, Pakistan. Two core constructions — closed-palm hybrid MMA sparring gloves and open-palm fight and grappling gloves — each available in cow hide, buffalo hide, or synthetic leather-PU. Full OEM and private label programs, with pre-shipment inspection included on every order. B2B only.
Two MMA Glove Constructions. Every Material Option on Both.
Avant-Garde Sports supplies MMA gloves in two distinct constructions, sourced from specialist manufacturers in Sialkot. Material choice — cow hide, buffalo hide, or synthetic leather-PU — is independent of construction, so either style can be produced in any of the three materials to match your price point and target market.
01
Higher Padding
Hybrid MMA Sparring Gloves
A closed, flap-and-wrap construction similar in profile to a boxing glove, built for heavier sparring impact. The extended wrist wrap and denser foam layer prioritize protection for both training partners over grip access. A common choice for MMA gyms running high-volume sparring sessions.
ClosureWrap-around hook-and-loop
PaddingHigher-density, full coverage
Best ForHeavy sparring, striking gyms
Weights6oz, 7oz, 8oz
02
Lower Padding
Fight & Grappling Gloves
An open-palm construction with segmented knuckle padding and exposed fingers, closer to competition MMA gloves. The reduced padding profile keeps grip, clinch work, and grappling transitions realistic while still offering knuckle protection for striking. The standard choice for retail lines and competition-adjacent training.

PaddingSegmented, open-finger

01
Brief
Tell us the style (hybrid sparring or open-palm fight), material, weights, colorways, branding and quantities. Reference gloves help.
02
Spec Sheet & Quote
We confirm shell material, padding density and segmentation, closure, lining and logo application in writing, with unit pricing, MOQ and lead time — within 2 business days.
03
Pre-Production Sample
A branded sample pair is made to your spec sheet and shipped for approval. Revisions are made before any bulk production starts.
04
Bulk Production
Production runs against the approved sample. We follow it locally in Sialkot, so you are not chasing a factory across time zones.
05
Pre-Shipment Inspection
Every order is checked for stitching, padding, finger loops, closure function and branding against the approved sample. If it doesn’t match, it doesn’t ship.
06
Packing & Export
Retail-ready packing and export from Sialkot. MMA gloves can ship in one consolidated container with boxing gloves, head guards or wrestling shoes.
Custom patterns and molds. Private label orders use existing glove patterns, which keeps MOQs low. If your brand needs its own glove pattern or a custom foam mold, we can arrange it — tooling cost and lead time are quoted after we review your requirements.
How We Source
Working with Sialkot’s MMA Glove Manufacturers.
Sialkot’s combat sports cluster includes specialist MMA and grappling glove makers alongside its boxing glove workshops. Avant-Garde Sports is a sourcing and export company, not a factory: we match your MMA glove specification to the Sialkot manufacturer best suited to it, manage sampling and production, and inspect every order before it ships.
For brands without staff in Pakistan, that means one accountable partner instead of managing several factories directly. See how the two models compare in Sourcing Company vs Direct Manufacturer.
Matched to the right factory
Leather fight gloves and volume PU sparring gloves are placed with the workshops that make them best.
Specs confirmed in writing
Shell, padding, segmentation, weight and branding are locked before sampling — no surprises in bulk.
Inspection included
Pre-shipment inspection is part of every order, not a paid add-on.
Where are Avant-Garde Sports MMA gloves sourced from?
All MMA gloves are sourced from specialist manufacturers in Sialkot, Pakistan. Sialkot has over 140 years of sports goods manufacturing history, with specialized leather tanneries, stitching expertise, and a robust combat sports supply chain.
What materials are available for custom MMA gloves?
Both glove constructions — closed-palm hybrid MMA sparring gloves and open-palm fight and grappling gloves — are available in cow hide leather, buffalo hide leather, or synthetic leather-PU. Material choice is independent of style, so any construction can be produced in any of the three materials.
What is the difference between the two MMA glove styles you offer?
The closed-palm hybrid MMA sparring glove has a closed, padded flap-and-wrap construction with a fully enclosed thumb, built for heavier sparring impact. The open-palm fight and grappling glove has segmented knuckle padding with exposed fingers, closer to competition MMA gloves, supporting grip and grappling transitions.
What is the minimum order quantity for custom MMA gloves?
Private label MMA gloves on existing patterns start at 50–100 pairs per colorway — lower for standard PU, higher for custom leather patterns. Full OEM orders with a new pattern or custom foam mold require higher minimums. Exact MOQ is confirmed in your quote; see our MOQ & pricing guide.
Does Avant-Garde Sports conduct pre-shipment inspection on MMA gloves?
Yes. We inspect and pack every order ourselves before export. Each unit is checked at the packing stage before it leaves Sialkot — verifying construction quality, stitching integrity, padding, closure function, and branding application. This is a core part of our process on every order, not an optional add-on.
How long does custom MMA glove production take?
Pre-production samples take 10–21 days after your specification is confirmed. Bulk production typically takes 30–60 days after sample approval. Orders with a new glove pattern or custom foam mold take longer — the exact timeline is included in your quote.
Can you develop a custom MMA glove pattern or mold?
Yes. Private label orders use existing patterns to keep MOQs low. A custom glove pattern or foam mold can be developed for your brand — tooling cost and lead time are quoted after we review your requirements.
Do you also supply boxing gloves?
Yes. For training, sparring, competition, Muay Thai and kids gloves from 4oz to 18oz, see our boxing gloves range — both categories can ship together in one order. View custom boxing gloves.
Are you an MMA glove manufacturer?
No — Avant-Garde Sports is a sourcing and export company based in Sialkot, Pakistan. We work with specialist Sialkot MMA glove manufacturers, manage sampling and production on your behalf, and inspect every order before shipment. Here’s how that compares to going direct.
