THE FOUNDATION OF POWER: WHY HAND WRAPS ARE NON-NEGOTIABLE

BEYOND THE GLOVE: ARCHITECTURAL SUPPORT
A boxing glove is your shield, but your hand wrap is your foundation. Without proper wrapping, the 27 small bones and delicate ligaments in your hand are vulnerable to the massive kinetic energy generated by a single strike. At Tyke-ies, we view hand wraps as a critical engineering component—not an accessory. They are designed to transform your hand into a single, solid weapon, ensuring every ounce of power is transferred safely from your shoulder to the target.

THE TYKE-IES PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGE
- Joint Stabilization: Locks the wrist and thumb in a neutral position to eliminate hyperextension and ligament strain during high-impact hooks and crosses.
- Metacarpal Compression: Provides a secure "second-skin" seal that keeps the small bones of the hand aligned, preventing fractures under heavy loads.
- Impact Dissipation: Acts as a primary buffer, absorbing initial shock waves before they reach your joints, reducing long-term wear and tear.
- Micro-Climate Control: High-grade, breathable fabric wicks moisture away from the skin, protecting your gloves from bacterial buildup and extending the life of your gear.
THE SECURE-WRAP PROTOCOL
To achieve the Tyke-ies Standard of protection, your wrap must be tensioned correctly. A wrap that is too loose offers zero support; a wrap that is too tight restricts circulation.
- The Anchor: Start with a secure loop around the thumb, ensuring the "This Side Down" label is facing the skin for a flat finish.
- The Wrist Lock: Apply three to four revolutions around the wrist to create a rigid pillar of support.
- The Knuckle Shield: Layer the wrap across the knuckles to create a custom-molded pad that fills the void inside your glove.
- The Inter-Digital Weave: Thread the wrap between the fingers to secure the metacarpals and prevent the wrap from shifting during movement.
TRAIN LONGER. STRIKE HARDER.
Your hands are your tools. Protecting them isn't just about safety—it's about staying in the gym and outlasting the competition. Whether you're working the heavy bag or moving into deep sparring, never step into the ring without the support of Tyke-ies precision wraps.
