A Style Guide to Buying Muay Thai Shorts

When it comes to buying Muay Thai shorts there is an unlimited amount of choices to choose from. Like the sport of Muay Thai itself, the shorts used in competition have evolved from long boxing shorts to countless varieties of style and color.

How to Wear Your Muay Thai Shorts with Style - A Guide for 2020

One of the biggest things that separates Muay Thai fighters from other martial arts is their shorts. Outside of Vale Tudo shorts/MMA grappling shorts, Muay Thai shorts are by far the shortest fight shorts you will find in any martial arts. Muay Thai fighters are notoriously known for hiking up their shorts to the shortest possible length. To the untrained eye, the constant rolling up of the shorts looks strange. You will notice that most people who are just starting out, keep their shorts long as possible. And, once that person starts improving their skill and technique, they will slowly...
