A re-edition that beats everything The de Sede boxing glove, DS-2878, manufactured at 7:1 scale, is a re-edition from 1978 and brings popular boxing into your own four walls – whether for boxing fans, the young at heart, boxing athletes or aficionados of the cult. As with the original, the detailed boxing glove figure comes with a two-color cover, the typical folds at the edges, and a striking lacing at the glove opening, which is also the foot end of the sofa. Soft de Sede leather and ingeniously detailed upholstery ensure extraordinary seating comfort. Matching to the re-edition of the DS-2878, de Sede boxing fans can get their hands on a very special accessory: a punching bag made of leather. Be it for cult decoration or real training equipment, boxing flair finds its way into the living room. Joe Frazier and Muhammad Ali would have loved it. Contrasting colors are used in the upper and lower areas, and the filling is made of real leather remains. This revolutionary filling enables a new training feeling, the punch and kick movements are optimally dampened and at the same time heavily weighted, just like a real opponent. The boxing accessory is secured on a mount made of DS-ARISANO, a leather known for its stable, saddlery properties. The punching bag is attached to the ceiling with a three-part metal chain fixture. It is 1978. That was the year when Muhammad Ali fought Leon Spinks, twice – and inspired designer Ueli Berger, who had been delighted with the futuristic design of de Sede sculptures during the Swiss manufacture’s early years.
