The design core of MMA shorts is to adapt to high-intensity movements such as grappling, hitting, and ground pressure, while considering flexibility, protection, and durability. Every detail is tailored for the safety and performance of the competition.
1. Core design of sports flexibility
Pants length and style: The pants length should be controlled in the upper part of the thigh (10-15 centimeters from the knee) to avoid excessive entanglement with the limbs. A loose straight tube style should be used to not restrict large movements such as squats, kicks, and ground rolling.
Side seam slit design: The slit height on both sides of the pants reaches 1/2 of the thigh, combined with elastic fabric splicing, greatly increasing the lifting range of the legs, and there is no fabric pulling sensation when kicking or sweeping the legs.
Waist Adjustment System: Adopting a wide elastic waistband, Velcro, and drawstring triple fixation, the waistband width is ≥ 5 centimeters, dispersing waist pressure. The drawstring is designed with a hidden design to avoid being hooked during entanglement, and is adaptable to different waist sizes, preventing slipping during exercise.
2. Protection and Wear resistant Details
Fabric selection: The outer layer is made of high wear and tear resistant polyester fiber, with a scratch resistant coating on the surface to resist ground friction, entanglement, pulling, and impact; Some styles add lightweight breathable mesh on the inside to enhance skin friendliness and reduce skin friction.
Key area reinforcement: The crotch is made of double-layer fabric splicing, with triangular reinforcement stitching to enhance tear resistance; Wrap the edges of the pants legs to prevent the seams from wearing and falling off; Use double line locking at the side seam fork to prevent cracking during movement.
No unnecessary decorations: Omitting easy to hook parts such as pockets and metal buttons, all logos (team emblem, brand logo) use heat transfer printing technology, flat without protrusions, to avoid hooking opponent’s equipment or scratching the skin during entanglement.
3. Breathability and practical details
Breathable structure: Mesh fabric is used to connect sweat prone areas such as the waist, abdomen, and inner thighs to accelerate air circulation; Some styles have breathable holes on the back waist to quickly drain sweat and avoid stuffiness and sticking to the body.
Lightweight processing: The overall weight is controlled at 120-180 grams, using ultra-thin high-density fabrics to reduce the burden of exercise and make movements lighter and more flexible.
Easy to care for: The fabric has undergone wrinkle and stain resistant treatment, and is not easily deformed or faded after machine washing. Sweat and soil are easy to clean, making it suitable for high-frequency training.
4. Humanization and safety ingenuity
Sensorless label: Replace traditional woven labels with heat transfer printing, print size and care instructions on the inner side of the waist, without any foreign object sensation, and avoid rubbing the skin on the waist during exercise.
Color and visibility: The main body uses high saturation color schemes (red, blue, black, etc.), and some styles add fluorescent color splicing or reflective strips to enhance visibility during low light training, making it convenient for coaches to observe movements.
Leg design: The legs are designed with micro elastic ribbed or loose edging, which does not restrict the legs and can fix the shape of the pants, avoiding the legs from rolling up during exercise, and preventing ground gravel and grass debris from entering the pants.
