Is there a difference between boxing gloves and kickboxing gloves?

I%26#039;m taking a kickboxing class. It%26#039;s light sparring most of the time. We were told we could buy our own gloves since the school ones smell bad. While I was looking them up online, it looked like boxing gloves were different from kickboxing gloves. Is there a difference? Can I use boxing gloves for a kickboxing class?|||it depends. i would ask your school. some of the gloves used in some classes are designed to be light and allow for grappling or grabbing an opponent. boxing cloves force you to make a fist and keep it that way.|||I am a boxer and kickboxer there is no differance other then you don%26#039;t want to use your bag gloves for sparring gloves.

|||Yes, kickboxing gloves will be thinner and allow more maneuverability because it%26#039;s Kickboxing is an MMA





Boxing gloves will be larger and more suited for strictly punchin and jabbing
