The side splits run higher, which is essential for the high round kicks and knee strikes that characterise Muay Thai. Standard kickboxing shorts are often slightly longer and tighter, which some fighters prefer for sparring or fitness kickboxing. The classic Muay Thai fit provides more airflow and moves more freely, but can take some getting used to if you're accustomed to tighter sportswear. This Caged model combines the traditional cut with modern polyester that is lighter and dries faster than satin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDo the Caged Muay Thai Shorts Classic fit true to size?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, these shorts fit larger than average.

The 100% polyester material is light, flexible and dries quickly, ideal for intensive training and sparring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I wash these kickboxing shorts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWash these shorts by hand only in cold or lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Do not machine wash, do not tumble dry and do not iron. Hang the shorts to dry. Hand washing preserves the quality of the polyester and the elastic waistband, so your shorts last longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat size should I choose if I'm 198 cm and 90 kg?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe model in the photo is 198 cm, 90 kg and wears size XL. Because these shorts fit generously, size L might also fit depending on your preference. Measure your waist and hips and compare with the size chart. Want a slightly tighter fit? Choose L. Do you prefer more room? Then XL is suitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between polyester and satin Muay Thai shorts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePolyester shorts like this Caged model are lighter, sturdier and dry faster than traditional satin shorts. Satin feels smoother and has a glossy appearance, but is more prone to tearing. Polyester is more durable for intensive use and retains its shape better after many washes, while offering the same freedom of movement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caged","offers":[{"title":"S","offer_id":49733013143899,"sku":"CGDMT00003-S","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"M","offer_id":49733013176667,"sku":"CGDMT00003-M","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"L","offer_id":49733013209435,"sku":"CGDMT00003-L","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":49733013242203,"sku":"CGDMT00003-XL","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXL","offer_id":49733013274971,"sku":"CGDMT00003-XXL","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/7531\/5641\/files\/18_329301f4-0cf6-4aea-9cd8-9918edce94bf.jpg?v=1770132916","url":"https:\/\/thefightcompany.co.uk\/products\/caged-muay-thai-shorts-classic-bordeaux-red-white","provider":"The Fight Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
