Shop Gym Gloves, Caps & Hats in Singapore
Whether you're training in the gym, running outdoors, or just heading to a session, the right headwear and gloves make a genuine difference. From structured baseball caps that keep sweat out of your eyes to lifting gloves built for serious pulling sessions, this range covers the practical side of training kit without compromising on look or feel.
The collection spans everything from slim headbands and beanies to reversible bucket hats and full-coverage lifting gloves — designed to move with you, not against you. Each piece is built with the same attention to detail as the rest of the range, so you're getting gym gear that actually holds up.
Who Hats & Gloves Are For
If you're into weightlifting, powerlifting, or any kind of barbell work, a good pair of gym gloves is worth having in your kit bag. They're particularly useful for anyone who trains with high volume or heavy loads and wants extra grip and wrist stability during pulls, rows, and pressing movements. The MP Lifting Gloves are built with added wrist support and extra padding for exactly this kind of training.
Headwear suits a wider range of people — from those who train outdoors in variable weather to anyone who just prefers to keep hair and sweat away from their face during a session. The range works for gym-goers, runners, and casual wearers alike, with relaxed fits and adjustable styles that make it easy to find something that suits how you train.
When to Use Hats & Gloves
Lifting gloves are most useful during compound pulling and pushing exercises — think deadlifts, pull-ups, barbell rows, and bench press. Wearing them consistently during these movements can help protect your hands over time, especially if you're training multiple days a week. They're also a solid choice for anyone returning to training after a break, when skin on the hands tends to be less conditioned.
Caps and headbands earn their place across pretty much every training scenario. A slim headband like the MP Tempo Slim Headband works well during indoor cardio or HIIT where you want minimal interference — its 4-way stretch moves with you and the soft-touch fabric keeps irritation low. Caps are better suited to outdoor runs, walks, or casual gym use where sun and weather are factors. Beanies and ear muffs come into their own for cold-weather outdoor training or early morning sessions.
Hats & Gloves Benefits
Better Grip and Hand Protection
Lifting gloves add a layer between your hands and the bar, which matters when you're working with heavier loads or high rep counts. The extra padding in the MP Lifting Gloves distributes pressure more evenly, reducing discomfort during long sets and helping you focus on the movement rather than your hands.
Wrist Support During Heavy Lifts
Wrist stability is often overlooked, but it plays a real role in how safely and effectively you can move weight. Full-coverage and standard lifting gloves with wrist support — like the MP Lifting Gloves — give that extra structure around the joint, which is particularly useful during pressing and overhead movements.
Sweat and Sun Management
A good cap or headband keeps sweat from running into your eyes mid-set, which sounds minor until it happens at the wrong moment. The MP Baseball Cap features embroidered eyelets for ventilation and an adjustable velcro strap so you can get the fit right. For outdoor sessions, headwear also provides a practical barrier against sun and wind.
Versatile Across Seasons and Settings
The range covers warm and cold-weather needs in one place. Reversible bucket hats and relaxed baseball caps work year-round, while beanies and ear muffs are specifically designed for colder conditions. Whether you're training inside or out, there's a format that fits the session.

FAQs
Are gym gloves worth it in Singapore's climate?
Gym gloves are genuinely useful in Singapore's humid conditions, where sweat can affect grip during heavy lifts. Gloves like the MP Lifting Gloves add padding and wrist support that help you hold your form during pulling and pressing exercises, regardless of how warm the gym gets. If you're doing significant barbell or dumbbell work, they're a practical addition to your kit.
What types of gym headwear are available?
The range includes baseball caps, relaxed-fit caps, slim headbands, beanies, bucket hats, and ear muffs — covering everything from indoor cardio to cold-weather outdoor training. Styles come in multiple colourways including black, ecru, storm, dark emerald, and deep sage, so there's flexibility depending on what you're wearing them for.
What's the difference between standard and full-coverage lifting gloves?
Standard lifting gloves cover the palm and lower fingers, leaving the fingertips exposed for better bar feel. Full-coverage versions — like the MP Full Coverage Lifting Gloves — enclose the full hand, offering more protection across the entire grip surface. The right choice depends on your preference for hand sensation versus coverage during lifts.
Which headwear would you recommend for indoor gym sessions?
For indoor training, the MP Tempo Slim Headband - Ivory is a strong option. Its 4-way stretch means it moves with you through any exercise without shifting, and the soft-touch fabric reduces scalp irritation — useful for longer sessions. It's minimal in profile, so it won't interfere with headphones or equipment.
Can I buy gym caps and hats in Singapore from Myprotein?
Myprotein ships gym caps, hats, and gloves to Singapore. The range includes multiple cap styles — from structured baseball caps to relaxed-fit and appliqué designs — as well as beanies, bucket hats, and headbands, all available through the Singapore site.
How do I choose the right size cap?
Most caps in the range feature an adjustable velcro strap at the back, meaning one size fits a wide range of head sizes without needing to select a specific fit. The MP Baseball Cap uses this adjustable system for a customisable, secure fit. If you prefer a more laid-back feel, the relaxed-fit styles offer a slightly roomier silhouette.
Are the gloves suitable for both men and women?
The lifting gloves are designed for anyone who trains with weights, regardless of gender. The added padding and wrist support make them practical for anyone working with barbells, dumbbells, or cable machines. Sizing details are available on individual product pages to help you find the right fit.
Who designs the hats and gloves?
Myprotein's in-house design team develops the hats and gloves range, applying the same focus on function and training-specific detail as the wider MP apparel collection. Each piece is built with active use in mind — from fabric choice through to fit and construction.
How should I care for my lifting gloves?
Most lifting gloves can be hand-washed or machine-washed on a gentle cycle — check the care label on your specific pair for exact instructions. Allowing them to air dry rather than tumble drying helps maintain the padding and shape over time. Regular cleaning keeps them fresh and extends their lifespan.
Is the headwear suitable for outdoor use in Singapore?
Baseball caps and bucket hats in the range work well outdoors, providing shade and ventilation during outdoor runs, walks, or training sessions. The MP Baseball Cap's embroidered eyelets allow airflow, which is particularly useful in warm conditions. For cooler outdoor sessions or early mornings, the beanie and ear muffs options cover cold-weather needs.
