Viking Glove Guard – Leather Care Cream for Boxing Gloves
Care that makes your gloves perform. Handmade in Switzerland – produced in small batches in St. Gallen. 100% natural ingredients. No artificial fragrances or preservatives.
Why special leather care for boxing gloves?
Boxing gloves work hard: sweat, salt, friction, and frequent drying stress the leather. Our Leather Care Cream keeps the upper leather supple, protects against drying out, and prevents salt stains – without over-greasing the padding. This preserves the shape, grip, and compact feel of your gloves. Ideal for horsehair models, where we deliberately only care for the outside and very sparingly.
