Why for girls?
“After five years of boxing, I couldn't find any products that suited me, so I decided to take a step forward and start creating equipment focused on us.

I designed the first handwraps gloves adapted to women's hands and drew boobs and glitter on them. That idea ended up being a huge success and showed me that it's a problem shared by EVERYONE around the world."
