Suitable for

  • Boxing
  • Kickboxing

    For kickboxing training and sparring. RDX describes a cheek-protection head guard with a Maya Hide ConvEX Skin outer, EVA-Lution foam padding and a hook-and-loop strap. WAKO requires a head guard in every fighting discipline (WAKO Rules 2022, Art. 2.3.1.1), and WAKO events require WAKO-labelled head guards. RDX does not describe this one as WAKO-approved or WAKO-labelled, so it is for training and sparring, not WAKO bouts.

Research-based editorial assessment

Our verdict

A cheek-protection headguard from RDX's UK range, giving more facial coverage than a fully open-face guard. It suits general sparring and training.

RDX's UK product page lists Maya Hide ConvEX Skin combat leather, EVA-Lution foam padding and sweat-wicking fabric. It adds DenZo-Tron padded ear guards and a Quick-EZ tri hook-and-loop strap, in sizes S to XL. RDX also states the headguard is "CE Certified by SATRA": a manufacturer product-safety conformity claim, not a boxing governing-body approval.

Best suited to

Boxers who want a headguard with extra cheek coverage for general sparring and training. RDX doesn't aim it at a particular experience level.

Consider skipping if

You want maximum visibility (an open-face design), or maximum facial coverage including a nose bar (see the RDX APEX).

Pros

  • Maya Hide ConvEX Skin combat leather, EVA-Lution foam padding and DenZo-Tron padded ear guards, per RDX, in sizes S to XL
  • Cheek protectors for more facial coverage than an open-face guard

Cons

  • Its "CE Certified by SATRA" status is RDX's own product-safety conformity claim, not a boxing governing-body approval, so it doesn't make this a competition-sanctioned headguard
  • No nose bar, so less facial coverage than a full-face guard

Why we rated it this way

Protection (3): RDX states cheek protectors, EVA-Lution foam and padded ear guards. The cheek protectors add coverage over an open-face guard. But EVA is a standard padding foam and there is no nose bar, so this is the normal level for a sparring headguard.

Comfort (3): RDX lists sweat-wicking fabric and an adjustable Quick-EZ tri hook-and-loop strap: useful features, and the normal standard for a headguard.

Materials & Construction (3): RDX states a "combat leather" outer (Maya Hide ConvEX Skin) and a hook-and-loop closure: the normal build for a headguard.

Value (3): A budget price for a headguard with RDX's "combat leather" outer, EVA foam, cheek protectors and padded ear guards, which is what headguards at this price normally offer.
