Hey friends, it’s Lizzie! If you’re in the UK or Europe and you’ve found one of my Hayabusa posts, there’s a good chance you’ve already typed LILO into the checkout and watched it do absolutely nothing. That isn’t you doing it wrong. Hayabusa runs a separate European store, and it takes a different code.
So here’s the short version, and then everything else worth knowing before you order.
The code is LIZZIE
On the Hayabusa Europe store, my code is LIZZIE — not LILO. It takes 10% off, and you enter it in the discount box at checkout the same way you would anywhere else.

Why there are two different codes
This trips up more people than anything else I get asked about. Hayabusa operates the US store and the European store as separate shops, with separate stock and separate checkouts. An ambassador code is tied to one of them.
- LILO — the US store
- LIZZIE — the UK and Europe store
If you use the wrong one, nothing dramatic happens. The box just tells you the code isn’t valid, and a lot of people assume the code is dead and buy at full price anyway. That’s the bit I’d like to stop happening.
It won’t stack with a site-wide sale
Worth being upfront: it’s one code per order. If Hayabusa is running a real site-wide promotion, my code won’t stack on top of it. That’s not a loophole anyone can get around — it’s how the checkout is built.
So the rule is simple. When there’s a big sale on, take the sale. When there isn’t, use the code. You never do worse by checking both.
What I’d actually spend it on
I’ve been kickboxing for ten years and I’m a Hayabusa ambassador, so take that for what it is — but these are the pairs I genuinely train in, not a catalogue list.
The T3 is the one I reach for most. I have them in white, pink and black, and the wrist support is the reason. It’s the pair I’d buy if I were only buying once. My full write-up is in my long-term T3 review.
The T360 in 12oz is what I use when I want a cardio-intense session and to build strength. Lighter on the hand, and the dual-cross strap locks the wrist down properly.
The E1 is the softest of the three and noticeably more cushioned. It’s what I put on for a long heavy bag session, partly because it absorbs more and partly because it gives my favourite T3s a rest day. I broke it down in my E1 review.
If you’re weighing them against each other, I compared them properly in T3 vs E1 and T360 vs E1.
Get the size right before you order
Sizing is where people lose money, and it has nothing to do with which model you pick. Hayabusas run snug before they’re broken in, and the fit changes completely once you’re wrapped — so trying a pair on bare-handed in your living room tells you very little.
Read my sizing guide first, and if you have smaller hands like me, this one is the more useful read. A returns process across borders is nobody’s idea of a good week.
Shopping from Australia?
There’s a separate Australian storefront, and you can shop it here. I’ll update this page the moment I have anything confirmed about codes for that store — I’d rather say nothing than send you to a checkout with a code that doesn’t work.
In the US instead?
Then you want LILO, and everything you need is on my main Hayabusa discount code page.

What to expect on shipping and currency
The European store checks out in your local currency, not USD, so there’s no separate conversion step to think about at checkout. Shipping timelines from the EU store are also separate from the US one — if you’re ordering ahead of a specific date, build in a few extra days versus what a US reader would expect.
If you’re not sure which store you’re on
Check the currency shown at checkout before you enter any code. If it’s showing GBP or EUR, you’re on the right store for LIZZIE. If it’s showing USD, you’ve landed on the US store and LILO is the one that will actually work.
Which code, which store
| You’re shopping | Store | Code |
|---|---|---|
| UK & Europe | Hayabusa Europe (prices in GBP/EUR) | LIZZIE |
| United States | Hayabusa US (prices in USD) | LILO |
| Australia | Separate AU storefront | None I can confirm yet |
What the gloves cost before the code
US list prices for reference, so you can sanity-check what you’re seeing: E1 $99.99, T3 $169, T360 $169, T3 LX $199. Your local store will differ on currency and tax, but the ranking between models holds.
If the code doesn’t apply
Nine times out of ten it’s the wrong store rather than a dead code. Check the currency at checkout first — that single check resolves most of the messages I get about this.
The other common cause is a site-wide sale already running. It’s one code per order, so when a bigger promotion is live the code simply won’t stack on top of it.
Before you order from the EU store
Two things worth doing in order. First, work out your size properly — cross-border returns are slower and more annoying than domestic ones, so getting it right the first time matters more here than it does in the US. My sizing guide covers it.
Second, decide what you are actually buying before the code goes in. It is one code per order, so a single larger order uses the discount better than two smaller ones placed a week apart.
What I would buy first
If it is your first serious pair, the E1. If you already know you are staying with the sport and want to buy once, the T3. If your wrists are the thing you notice after a hard session, the T360.
That is the entire decision for most people, and it does not change based on which store you are on — only the code does.
If you are shopping from somewhere else entirely
The two codes above cover the US and the UK/Europe stores. For Australia there is a separate storefront linked above, and I am not going to promise a discount there until I can confirm one works. I would rather send you to the right shop with no code than the wrong shop with one.
Worth a read before you buy: every Hayabusa model, ranked and is Hayabusa actually worth the money.
Ordering from Britain specifically? I’ve written up the UK code and the £80 free shipping rule in more detail. And if you’re shipping into the EU, be aware that the €180 threshold catches most single-pair orders.
Your Questions, Answered
What is the Hayabusa discount code for the UK? LIZZIE, used on the Hayabusa Europe store. It takes 10% off.
Why doesn’t LILO work for me? LILO is the US store’s code. The European store is a separate shop and needs LIZZIE.
Does the code work during a sale? No — it’s one code per order, so it won’t stack with a site-wide promotion. Take whichever saves you more.
Is there an Australian code? Not that I can confirm yet. The Australian storefront is linked above, and I’ll update this page as soon as I know more.
Which Hayabusa gloves should I start with? The T3 if you already know you’re staying with the sport, the E1 if you want something softer and more forgiving to begin on.
Why does LILO not work in the UK? Because it is the US store’s code. The European store is a separate shop with its own checkout, and it takes LIZZIE.
What currency will I be charged in? The European store checks out in your local currency, so there is no separate conversion step for you to work out at checkout.
How long does shipping take to Europe? Timelines come from the EU store rather than the US one, so build in a few extra days versus what a US reader would expect if you are ordering ahead of a date.
Can I use the code more than once? Treat it as one code per order. If you are buying several things, putting them in a single order is usually the simpler route.
Is there an Australian code? Not one I can confirm. The Australian storefront is linked above, and I would rather link it plainly than promise a discount I have not verified.
