What Are The Benefits Of Wearing Shorts Designed for Mixed Martial Arts - Grappling?
Can I wear regular exercise shorts instead of MMA Shorts during training or competition?
 MMA shorts are designed specifically for mixed martial arts.  Generally speaking, premium MMA shorts offer several unique features that submission grapplers and standup strikers can benefit from.
 
Secure Waist Band System
 MMA shorts have an adjustable waist band system that is designed to fit comfortably and stay on securely. 
 
Stretch Material
 Special flexible fabric is used so that the shorts do not easily tear while allowing for a wide range of motion.
 
Wicking Properties (Similar to Popular Athletic Clothing)
 Helps the shorts stay dry during hard training sessions and competition.
 
Split Seam Sides
 Shorts are designed to allow you to move freely so they do not get in the way of strategic positioning or kicking.
 
Quality Craftsmanship
 Split seam sides have reinforced stitching to resist easy tearing and ripping.
 
Fungus Resistant
 Quality MMA shorts go through a procedure that discourages the growth of bacteria common in mixed martial arts.

How to wash MMA Shorts
1.) Fasten the fly and waistband securely.
 
2.) Turn the MMA shorts inside out.
 
3.) Gently hand wash the MMA shorts in cold water saturated in a mild liquid detergent with similar colors only. Do not use bleach.
 
4.) Air dry. Tumble dry low first if you need them to be dry quicker, then air dry.
 
Hand washing and air drying is preferred. Be sure to use a delicate washing mode and tumble dry low if you have to use a washing or drying machine.
 
Always follow the manufacturer washing guidelines if they provide different information.

Why should I care if my opponent wears MMA shorts?
Do you really want to be caught in the triangle of someone wearing a thong?  If they are wearing board shorts not designed for mixed martial arts you will probably get injured because of the exterior pockets and exterior components.

MMA Shorts Size Chart
There isn’t a standardized mma shorts sizing chart.  When in doubt which size to buy, the best thing to do is to buy the size you would wear for dress pants.
 
Also, it is recommended that you buy the next size up if you are between sizes or not a slim build.
