Questions
How do I care for these satin shorts?
To maintain the quality of the satin, hand wash in cold water with mild detergent or use a delicate machine cycle. Hang dry away from direct sunlight. Do not bleach or tumble dry.
Are these shorts suitable for other combat sports?
While designed for Muay Thai, the high leg slits and durable construction make them suitable for kickboxing or other striking arts where unrestricted leg movement is crucial. They are not ideal for grappling due to the short cut and satin material.
Do these shorts run true to size?
Muay Thai shorts typically run smaller than Western sizes. We recommend consulting the size chart and considering sizing up if you are between sizes or prefer a slightly looser fit.
What is the benefit of the high leg slits?
The high leg slits are a traditional design feature that allows for maximum hip and leg extension, crucial for executing high kicks, knee strikes, and maintaining full range of motion without fabric restriction.
