PHENOM XHG-270 HEAD GUARD

XHG-270 Head Guard

The XHG-270 represents the pinnacle of impact protection within our cheek protector head guard range, developed for boxers who demand elite-level shock absorption without sacrificing visibility, mobility, or balance.

Based on the same streamlined, low-profile platform as the SHG-270, the XHG-270 has been purpose-built around XRD® Extreme Impact Protection. This advanced padding technology is engineered to absorb extreme impact energy, working in combination with underlying foams to manage and reduce peak forces before they reach the head, maintaining consistent protective performance strike after strike. The result is a head guard designed for higher-intensity sparring, where protection is critical but speed and awareness cannot be compromised.

The XHG-270 features a redesigned internal structure and optimised padding architecture that integrates XRD® panels into key impact zones. These are strategically positioned across the forehead, cheeks, and ears to provide maximum protection where it matters most, while preserving a compact, agile feel on the head.

Despite its enhanced protective capability, the XHG-270 remains remarkably balanced and comfortable. Its ergonomic profile sits close to the head, reducing bulk and pressure points, helping to limit neck fatigue during longer, harder rounds. The refined padding geometry maintains clear sightlines and excellent peripheral vision, allowing boxers to track punches, angles, and movement with confidence even under pressure.

Craftsmanship is evident throughout. Reinforced stitching in high-stress areas ensures long-term durability, while premium leather piping enhances structural integrity and adds a refined, professional finish that improves with age. Precision-embroidered branding completes the premium aesthetic.

Fully adjustable top and back lace closures, combined with a secure quick-release chin buckle, provide a locked-in, custom fit that minimises unwanted movement during training.

Finished in premium leather with a semi-aniline, moisture-wicking inner lining, the XHG-270 delivers outstanding comfort, durability, and confidence-inspiring protection, making it the ultimate choice for boxers seeking advanced impact absorption without compromise.

Weight: Approximately 11.5 oz

How to Measure

To measure your head for a boxing head guard, follow these steps:  

1. Use a flexible measuring tape. If you don’t have one, you can use a piece of string or lace and then measure it with a ruler.
2. Wrap the tape around the widest part of your head, just above your eyebrows and ears. Make sure the tape is snug but not too tight.
