Which Snakes Can Be Handled?

EN 388 is a European regulation governing the sale of gloves used for safety and protection. It determines the gloves' performance when used for protection against mechanical machinery by measuring the fabric's abrasion, cut, tear and puncture resistance. Alright, let's dive into the world of Venum boxing gloves. Their gloves are handcrafted with a classic touch, designed to withstand the toughest of fights. These aren't just any gloves; they're made from top-notch Argentinian Nappa leather. This means they're not only durable but also breathable, keeping your hands cool under pressure. And the lifespan? Impressive. Venum gloves are built like tanks, featuring multi-layered polyester foams. Let's chat about Venum's fight and Muay Thai shorts. Starting with their fight shorts, these are a dream for anyone into No Gi BJJ, MMA and martial arts. Made with 100% lightweight polyester, they're all about helping you move freely and upping your game. They're tough too, with reinforced seams that mean they're in it for the long haul. Plus, the smart closure system keeps them snug and in place, no matter how intense the fight gets. And when things heat up? No sweat – literally. Thanks to fast-dry microfibers and mesh panels, these shorts keep you cool and comfortable. Cuts are a little different and, with the EN 388 standard rewritten in 2016, it means that gloves will either be tested to cut resistance or ISO cut resistance (sometimes called TDM cut resistance). Gloves tested to cut resistance will score between Level 0 and Level 5, and gloves tested to ISO cut resistance will achieve a score between Level A and Level F with the higher letter offering better cut protection.
