After a long anticipated wait, the Hit N Move Air Armor Precision headgear has officially launched. However despite the release date being set to August 14th, Hit N Move actually decided to run a test period where they sent out 100 headgears for boxers to try and give feedback. The results were flawless with all 100 boxers giving this headgear a 10/10 and claiming that this is going to be their first choice headgear from this point onward.

A Breakthrough in Boxing Protection

Most boxers hate headgear. They are heavy, bulky and limit your peripheral vision. That is why this headgear was created. To give boxers a headgear that didn’t feel like a motorbike helmet. Using Hit N Move’s innovative multi layered micro padding system, they have created a headgear that offers the same level of protection as other more well known headgears without the bulkiness, overheating and obstruction of your vision. Plus, the headgear’s lightweight design means boxers are able to move their head more freely so they can keep their agility and because the headgear is smaller overall, boxers are able to make smaller and more realistic movements in sparring that will better translate to competition fighting. 

With all this in mind, the founder of hit n move has stated that this headgear took him 3 years to develop and after seeing the result, he knows that this headgear is capable of revolutionizing the boxing world. But it’s not just the founder…

One boxer in the test marketing program had this to say about the headgear, “This headgear is under-promoted; it’s the best protection I have ever felt for a small and light profile.”

THE SCIENCE BEHIND SUCCESS

What really sets Precision Headgear apart is the strong science behind its development. Hit N Move worked with experts at Virginia Tech to ensure this product meets the highest standards of safety and performance. Through a step-by-step testing process, the helmet showed the same protection as traditional models, while improving visibility and comfort – both of which are very important for a great player.

Boxers who tested the headgear during the marketing phase reported significant benefits, including enhanced movement, quicker reactions, and a more natural feel during sparring. The improved visibility and ventilation, which prevent overheating, have also been major selling points, as these are areas where traditional headgear often falls short.

He was not only a 7-time pharmaceutical sales champion in the USA but also one of the top national sales trainers, traveling across the country to educate and consult pharmaceutical salespeople. His involvement in two pharmaceutical procurement firms adds to his expertise and leadership in the industry.

Ozan’s transition from medicine to boxing equipment was driven by his deep knowledge of product development and his love for the sport.

His hands-on approach to training and product testing has been instrumental in the development of the new Hit N Move product line.
