Our verdict
A high-top boxing boot from Rival for boxers who want ankle support and stability. Its upper is suede on the Black colourway and PU on the White.
Rival's UK site describes a high-top design with a compound rubber outsole, a moulded EVA midsole, breathable mesh and a reinforced heel cap.
The upper material depends on the colourway: suede on the Black, PU on the White, per Rival.
Boxers who want a high-top boot for maximum ankle support and stability in training.
You want a lighter, more mobile low-top (see the Rival RSX-Genesis 3), or you want the same upper material whichever colourway you choose.
Pros
- A high-top design that supports the ankle, which a low-top boot doesn't
- A compound rubber outsole and moulded EVA midsole
- Sold on Rival's own UK storefront
Cons
- The upper material differs by colourway: suede on the Black, PU on the White
- Rival doesn't state how it fastens or what it weighs
Why we rated it this way
Protection (4): Rival's high-top design covers the ankle more fully than a low-top or ¾-cut boot, which puts its protection above the normal level for a boxing boot.
Comfort (3): breathable mesh and a moulded EVA midsole are confirmed, but no more distinguishing comfort detail exists beyond that.
Materials & Construction (3): Rival states a compound rubber outsole and an upper that varies by colourway: suede leather on the Black, PU on the White. That is the normal build for a boxing boot.
Value (3): A mid-range price for a high-top boot with a suede or PU upper and a compound rubber outsole, which is what boxing boots at this price normally offer.
