Grappling & MMA Shorts

Grappling shorts and no gi shorts need three things a regular gym short does not have: no pockets, no zippers and a waistband that stays put through scrambles. This collection brings together no-gi grappling shorts for BJJ and MMA fight shorts built for both striking and ground work. Looking for the shorter Thai cut? See the Muay Thai shorts collection.

No-gi grappling shorts or MMA fight shorts. The grappling shorts are cut longer, in four-way stretch fabric, for rolling, guard work and wrestling: nothing catches, nothing scratches. The MMA fight shorts add a split side seam and a wider leg opening so high kicks and knees are unrestricted, which makes them the better pick for classes that mix kickboxing and grappling.

Competition rules. IBJJF no-gi allows shorts without pockets, zippers or metal parts, in black, white, black and white, or your belt color, with no more than 50 percent of the short covered by a different color. Both pairs here follow the no-pocket, no-zipper rule.

Sizing. Fight shorts run small compared with US streetwear. Measure your waist and order one size up for a standard fit, two sizes up if you like them lower on the hips. The drawstring and hook-and-loop closure absorb a couple of inches either way. Free US shipping on every order, delivery in 7 to 12 business days, 15-day returns on unused items.
