There are many forms of sparring in the martial arts, but essential to all is the need for protective padding. Check with your school about what to order.
Most schools offer sparring kits, complete with carrying bag.
They can also help you with sizes and the proper fit. Consider your training needs. Leather sparring shoes are durable and comfortable, but tend to slip more than foam-dipped foot pads. Weigh price and value. Cloth gear is less expensive and offers a more secure fit than foam-dipped gear, but it offers less protection against impact.
