Buying for someone else training in Fight Sports
This can be very tricky, especially if they have been training a while. The best advice we would give is that unless they have specified something they want then avoid core training items such as boxing gloves, shin pads and the like. Instead go for niceties that every martial artist will appreciate but may not always buy for themselves. One other option if buy a FSPRO GIFT VOUCHER & Choose your level!
