Low Cost Focus Pads – Hard-wearing- Perfect for Club Use
$ 22.48
- Description Solid, No-Fuss Focus Pads That Won’t Break Your Club Budget If you’re running a martial arts club, you already know what happens to training gear. It gets sweated on, dropped, borrowed, used hard every session, and left in gym bags over summer. That’s exactly why these Pacific Sports low cost focus pads exist — they’re built to take a beating and keep going, at a price that makes sense when you need to kit out a whole class. At $36 a pair, you can put focus pads in the hands of every student without the guilt of watching expensive leather pads get trashed by beginners who haven’t learned to look after gear yet. And for home training? They’ll do the job just fine. What Makes These Worth Having These aren’t flimsy pads that collapse after a month. The outer shell is ripstop vinyl — the same tough, tear-resistant material used in quality sports gear. It handles repeated impact without cracking or peeling, and when they get sweaty (and they will), a quick spray-and-wipe is all it takes to clean them up. The medium-density foam filling gives you enough cushioning to absorb punches and kicks without your hands taking a hammering, but it’s firm enough that the pad holds its shape and gives the striker a satisfying target. There’s nothing worse than a pad that just mushes around when you hit it — these stay stable. The two velcro straps on the back secure snugly across your hand and wrist. This matters more than most people realise — a pad that shifts while you’re holding it is uncomfortable for you and throws the striker’s timing off. The fit here works for most adult and junior hands. What They’re Good For These round pads suit punching combinations, palm strikes, and light to moderate kicks. They’re a solid everyday training pad for: Boxing and kickboxing classes Karate and Taekwondo striking drills Muay Thai pad work (punches and lighter kicks) Junior and beginner training programs Warm-up drills and technique work at any level For heavy leg kicks or full-power Muay Thai work, you’d want a thicker pad with more depth. These are 6cm deep, which is appropriate for most striking work but not purpose-built for absorbing repeated heavy low kicks or teeps from a powerful kicker. Be honest with your students about that. Why Clubs Keep Buying These When you’re running classes, equipment that’s easy to grab, easy to use, and easy to clean matters. New students shouldn’t have to spend ten minutes figuring out how straps work before they can train. These are straightforward — put your hand in, close the velcro, go. The round shape (25cm across) gives a good target size for both punches and kicks without being so large it becomes awkward to position quickly. Your more experienced holders will appreciate how light they are when you’re running pad rounds back-to-back. For club owners looking to stock up: the economics here are simple. A pair at $36, built tough, holds up well to regular class use. When they eventually do wear out, replacing them doesn’t sting. What to Know Before You Buy These are PU/vinyl pads, not leather. Leather pads will feel better and last longer under intensive daily use — if you’re a full-time coach training serious competitors, look at the Leather Curved Focus Mitts instead. These low cost pads are genuinely excellent for club programs, casual training, and anyone who wants a reliable pad without spending a lot. Gloves are sold separately.

They handle moderate kicks well — Taekwondo snap kicks, roundhouse kicks, and boxing combinations are fine. For heavy Muay Thai leg kicks or powerful teeps from a strong kicker, you’d be better served by a thicker, deeper pad. These are 6cm deep, which is plenty for most training but not built for absorbing maximum-power low kicks repeatedly. Can kids use these in class? Yes. The velcro straps adjust enough to fit smaller hands, and the pads are light enough that juniors can hold them without fatiguing quickly. They’re a practical choice for children’s martial arts programs. How do I clean them after training? Wipe down with a damp cloth and a mild disinfectant spray after each session. The ripstop vinyl surface is easy to clean and doesn’t hold odour the way fabric pads can. Let them air dry — don’t leave them sealed in a bag while wet. How do these compare to the leather curved mitts? The leather curved mitts are a step up in feel, durability, and pad-holding comfort for intensive use. The curved shape also channels punches more naturally for boxing-specific work. These flat round pads are more versatile for mixed striking (punches and kicks) and are the right call when budget matters or when you’re stocking a club. If you’re a dedicated boxing or Muay Thai coach working with the same pads every day, the leather mitts are worth the extra investment. How many pairs should I buy for a class? A rough guide is one pair for every two students. In a class of 20, you’d want at least 10 pairs so everyone can partner up simultaneously. At $36 a pair, outfitting a class this size costs $360 — which is why the price point of these pads makes them so practical for clubs. Do these come with gloves? No, gloves are sold separately. You’ll find boxing and MMA gloves in our Gloves & Hand Wraps section. For most pad work, 10oz–14oz boxing gloves are appropriate depending on the size of the student.
