Alright, let’s talk about what to wear when you’re gonna box, you know, like those fellas doin’ the punchy-punchy stuff. I ain’t no expert, but I’ve seen enough on that there TV to tell ya a thing or two.
First off, you gotta think about what’s gonna let you move around easy. You don’t wanna be all stiff and clumsy like a scarecrow in a windstorm, right? So, comfy clothes are the way to go. Think loose-fittin’ stuff. Nothin’ too tight, you know?
- Shirts: A plain ol’ t-shirt works just fine. Or maybe one of them tank tops, if you get all hot and sweaty. Just make sure it ain’t too fancy, ’cause you’re gonna be sweatin’ all over it. Cotton’s good, it breathes nice.
- Pants or Shorts: Now, for the bottom half, you got choices. Some folks like them shorts, the kind that let your legs move free. Others like them long pants, like them yoga pants the young’uns wear, but maybe not so tight. Just make sure they ain’t gonna trip you up. You don’t wanna be fallin’ on your face in front of everybody, now do ya?
Now, let’s get to the important stuff, the stuff them boxers wear in the ring. I’m talkin’ ‘bout them shorts and such.
See, when they’re doin’ the real boxin’, the ones on TV, they wear special shorts. Usually, one fella’s wearin’ red and the other’s wearin’ blue. That’s just how they do it, so you can tell ‘em apart I guess. And they gotta have a vest too, same color as the shorts. I reckon it’s gotta do with the rules or somethin’.
And don’t forget about the shoes! You can’t be boxin’ in your Sunday best, that’s for sure. You need somethin’ that’ll grip the floor, so you ain’t slippin’ and slidin’ all over the place. Them special boxin’ shoes they wear, they look kinda like sneakers, but they got that grippy stuff on the bottom. Or you can wear just regular sport shoes, the ones you use for running or whatever. But make sure your socks are showing, the rules says so, or at least that’s what I heard.
And for the ladies, well, it’s pretty much the same deal. You can wear them shorts and a top, just like the fellas. Or you can wear them leggings, if that’s what you like. Just make sure it’s all comfy and lets you move. I seen some gals wearin’ special shorts, they kinda look like biker shorts, but I reckon anythin’ that’s comfy and stretchy will do just fine.
Now, let’s talk about the stuff they give ya when you’re boxin’ for real, like in a competition. Them fellas runnin’ the show, they give ya the gloves and that head thingy, the head guard I think they call it. That’s to keep you from gettin’ your head all banged up, I suppose. Makes sense to me, you don’t want to get your bell rung too hard.
So, to sum it all up, when you’re goin’ boxin’, whether it’s just for fun or for real, you gotta wear clothes that let you move. Loose-fittin’ shirts, comfy pants or shorts, and shoes that got good grip. And if you’re doin’ the real boxin’, well, they’ll tell you what to wear, and they’ll give you some of the stuff too. But most important thing is to be comfortable and ready to move. That’s what I reckon, anyways.
Oh, and one more thing, if you’re going to a boxing class, they might tell you what to wear too. Just ask them, they’ll tell you what you need, I’m sure of it. They wouldn’t want you showing up looking like a fool, would they?
Now go on and have a good time boxin’! Just try not to get punched in the nose, it ain’t fun, I tell ya.
