Best MMA & BJJ Fight Shorts

Most people believe that they don’t really need special MMA shorts for training. And, to an extent, it’s true that you don’t need it. You can still train using gym shorts. But your training will certainly benefit a lot from having the right gear.

MMA shorts are designed specifically considering the kind of movements you go through in MMA. They’re a lot less restrictive than gym shorts, which gives you greater fluidity of motion. They can also sustain a lot more damage than gym shorts without coming undone, because they’ll certainly be taking quite a bit of pounding during MMA.

The right set of MMA shorts can give you access to a full range of motion, allowing you to kick without issues. They are also extremely comfortable and they dry easily so you don’t have to worry about sweaty shorts while training.

All things considered, if you’re serious about MMA, then you should definitely invest in the right pair of MMA shorts. In this article, we give you an overview of some of the best MMA shorts out there.

Hayabusa Metaru MMA Shorts

Hayabusa Metaru is yet another incredibly powerful and popular MMA short. The best aspect of these shorts is the reinforced stitching. When it comes to MMA shorts, it’s important to have strong stitching because that’s what’s holding the shorts together and they do experience a fair bit of strain. Hayabusa Metaru is designed with double-reinforced stitching so there’s no way the stitching will come undone, no matter how rigorously you use it.

MMA shorts also need to be flexible. That’s why some MMA shorts go for split side seams to provide range of motion while some go for flexible fabrics. Hayabusa Metaru, however, doesn’t choose one or the other. It’s made of an extremely flexible fabric and it also features split side seams. That makes Hayabusa Metaru one of the most flexible shorts out there.

The waistband is also hardware-free and clings to your form without the use of any additional velcro straps or drawstrings, which minimizes the risk of obstructions during a fight. The biggest issue with these MMA shorts is that they’re quite expensive so it may pinch you a little to get several of these. They’re currently only available in three colors — black/brown, black/purple, and black/blue.
