OVERBUILD EVERYTHING
If a glove is rated for 1,000 rounds, we test it for 3,000. If a wrap claims 200 washes, we put it through 600. The second your gear fails is the second you lose — we treat that as a personal failure.
Twelve years. Three continents. One obsession — equipment that earns its place in your bag.
In the winter of 2014, our founder Tomas split a brand-name 16oz glove during round seven of an amateur middleweight final. He lost the fight. The next morning, instead of buying a replacement, he started Leathrex on the floor of his cousin's garage in Regensburg, Bavaria.
The first product wasn't a glove — it was a hand wrap, woven from a fabric blend Tomas had read about in an industrial textiles journal. He sold 200 units. Then 2,000. By 2017 he had partnered with a third-generation family workshop in Sialkot, Pakistan — the leather capital of the world — and the first Raven gloves shipped to fighters in 14 countries.
Today Leathrex outfits over half a million athletes worldwide. We are still independent. We are still obsessed. And we still test every single product on a heavy bag before it ships.
If a glove is rated for 1,000 rounds, we test it for 3,000. If a wrap claims 200 washes, we put it through 600. The second your gear fails is the second you lose — we treat that as a personal failure.
We don't pay celebrities to wear us. The fighters in our images are athletes who chose Leathrex with their own money before we ever called. Our only marketing budget is product quality.
Every workshop we partner with pays double the regional minimum, offers paid leave, and is independently audited twice a year. Names and photos are on our supply chain page.
If a Leathrex stitch ever fails — first round or fifteenth year — we replace it free. No receipts required, no fine print. We can offer this because we know what we built.
We source only the top 12% of cowhide from European tanneries — no chrome shortcuts, no bonded composites.
Each glove takes 4.5 hours of skilled labor. Double-locked seams, hand-set padding, signed by the maker.
Every model is rounded by 30+ pro athletes for a minimum of six months before it reaches your bag.
Twelve years in, we still answer every email personally. Come fight with us.
