Zulu Professional Gloves - gloves are generally sized by measuring the circumference of the hand just below the knuckle. Most manufacturers are simlar in there sizing but not all. Zulu Professional gloves come in two sizes. 'S/M' size gloves actually have a circumference of approximately 9 inches. This measurement is generally referred to as a large by other manufacturers. The second size 'L/XL' measures approximatley 10 inches. This size generally is known as a XL or even XXL by some manufacturers. It is worth taking a tape measure to your hand prior to ordering but generally those that consider themselves to have a small to medium adult male hand should order there Zulu Professional gloves in 'S/M' and those that consider themselves to have a bigger hand should order in 'L/XL'. As the gloves are manufactured in high grain leather there is some expansion after the first few workouts, this includes the massive leather wrist wrap which at first may appear slightly short unless pulled extremely tight. After a few workouts the gloves will stretch and become more comfortable and the wrist wrap will lengthen.  For those whom have measured there hands at 9 inches or less and have purchased Zulu Professional gloves in 'S/M', but feel they are a little tight; it is worth waiting for the glove to expand rather than ordering a bigger size as it ensures the wrist wrap hits the wrist in the right position, remember a bigger glove is not only wider but longer. (We have measured an approximate expansion of 1/2 an inch to both the body of the glove and the wrist wrap, usually this has taken place after 3-4 workouts)

Zulu Defcon (IPF) Single prongs - These belts will fit waist sizes from thirty inches upto forty four inches; we would advise your waist measurement to be two inches or more from these limits. Further to note the Royal Blue belts; somewhat of an industry standard colour used by a lot of manufacturers does appear a slightly lighter shade when professionally photographed.

Zulu Professional Lever Belts - Our current lever model is only available in one size and fits waist sizes 33 inches through to 42 inches, catering for the vast majority. This enables us to increase manufacturing numbers and offer you the customer a very high quality belt at a much more reasonable price. Many UK lever belt owners have previously had to pay three digits for a similar quality product. If you are new to lever belts you may be a little perplexed on receipt of the product that the lever does not tightly close when not worn, please do not dispare the lever works on pressure. The tighter the fit the tighter the lever clamps togather. One final note on receipt of your Zulu Professional Lever Belt be careful to take your time when screwing the lever to the belt. A new belt is flat whereas the lever and its associated components are contoured. Line both screws up togather being careful to push the flat belt into the middle of the lever. This technique will stop any possible cross threading. We would also advise purchasing a spare lever either at the time of purchasing your belt or periodically. This will avoid any downtime and keep your belt serving you for decades.

Zulu Kevlar Defcon Lifting Straps/Lifting straps - In the design and testing of this Defcon Lifting strap we had to make a choice on the density of the rubber grip thread. Soft has more grip, hard increases durability. We feel we have made the right choice and the straps provide phenominal grip, comfort and tensile strength. But please be advised that although this product is the ultimate lifting strap, the rubber grip thread will wear and is not as durable as an ordinary cotton strap. Ideally power athletes using this product should use it economically and our advice would be to use a pair of our standard kevlar straps for day to day training and saving your 'Defcon's' for the heaviest parts of your training regime. That's not to say this product will not take years of punishment but we like to empower our customers with as much  information as possible. With regards the huge length of all of our lifting straps don't worry if you are used to a more regular length strap such as a 21" or 25", you can continue to use the same wrapping method as you have previously used as the extra length will just hang down loose. During testing we found that the thirties offered further wrapping options and also got a huge amount of attention in the gym simply because they look so hardcore.
