Using these hand wraps is easy. Start by placing the thumb in the starter thumb section. Then, carefully wrap the hand wrap around your hand and wrist, making sure to cover all the important areas. The hook - and - loop closure allows you to adjust the tightness for a comfortable and secure fit. When using them for boxing, bag work, mitt work, or MMA training, ensure they're wrapped firmly to provide the necessary support. As for maintenance, after each use, it's a good idea to air them out to keep them fresh. You can also machine - wash them on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Just let them dry naturally. Avoid using harsh chemicals or bleach as this may damage the material and reduce their lifespan.
