These shorts are designed by hard core grapplers with an MMA fight in mind. The shorts are made with a cotton grip material that is patten pended. The material was originally designed for a full gi but the material was found to be too rough for a full gi. However for a grip material in the center of the shorts it has proven to be amazing. Armlocks, Triangles, and Omaplatas become unstoppable as your opponents arms and legs get stuck in the material no matter how sweaty they are. The body of the short is made of a light weight stretch material that features 3 inch side slits to allow for easy moments on the ground and for hi kicks. Tripple velcro closer makes sure the shorts will never come off and also works like a gi belt for Kimora defenses. Ciba Antibacterial wash to keep the nasty staff and ringworm from living in your gear.
