FYYTR is a combat sports and training brand based in the United Arab Emirates. We make boxing gloves, leather headguards, hand wraps, coaching pads and training apparel, built for the way people actually train here: six days a week, in heat, in gyms across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah.
The name is said like "fighter". It is spelled F-Y-Y-T-R, with the vowels taken out. If you have heard the name in a gym and never seen it written down, you have probably typed FYTR or FYYT into a search bar. Both find us.
What does FYYTR make?
Two glove lines, and they are built for different jobs. The Haawi H-1 at AED 249 to 299 is the everyday training glove, the pair you leave in your bag and hit pads with all week. The Mulakim M-1 at AED 499 is premium leather, heavier in the hand and built to last years rather than seasons.
Around them sits the rest of the kit: Laaf hand wraps at AED 49, the Mulakim Guard open-face headguard and the fuller Mulakim Shield for sparring, and Murabbi focus pads for whoever is holding.
There is also a training apparel range, because a cotton t-shirt in a Dubai gym in July is its own kind of punishment. That is covered properly in what to wear for boxing training.
Why are the products named in Arabic?
Because the brand is from here, and the names describe what the thing does. Laaf means to wrap. Haawi means amateur, in the original sense of someone who does it for love. Mulakim means boxer. Murabbi means coach.
They are not decoration. A wrap called Laaf tells an Arabic speaker exactly what it is before they read a word of English. The full explanation of each name, with sources, is in what the FYYTR product names mean.
Who is FYYTR for?
People who train, rather than people who own equipment. That distinction shapes what gets made and what does not.
It means the everyday glove is priced so a beginner can start properly rather than buying something that falls apart in a month. It means the headguards are leather, because the vinyl ones crack in this climate. It means the apparel is cut for movement in heat rather than for a photograph.
If you are starting out, boxing equipment for beginners covers what you actually need on day one, which is less than most shops will tell you.
Where can you buy FYYTR?
Online at fyytr.com, shipping across the UAE. Flat AED 25 delivery, free over AED 200, next day in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Everything is held in a UAE warehouse rather than shipped in from abroad on order, which is the difference between a glove arriving on Tuesday and a glove arriving in three weeks. If you are comparing options, buying boxing equipment online in the UAE goes through what to check before you order from anyone, including us.
