Are the Hexagon MMA Shorts suitable for both striking and grappling?

Yes — the Hexagon shorts are designed for full MMA training. The four-way stretch fabric handles the full hip extension of high kicks, the split-hem design allows unrestricted leg movement, and the dual-closure waistband resists the pulling and tugging that grappling and clinch work creates.

What is the split-hem design and why does it matter?

The split hem is a vertical cut on the outer sides of each leg that opens up during kicks, removing the fabric tension that restricts leg height. Standard shorts without a split create resistance at the hem when you throw high kicks or attempt full hip extension on takedowns.

Can I use Hexagon MMA Shorts for BJJ no-gi training?

Yes — MMA shorts with a four-way stretch fabric and flatlock seams are appropriate for BJJ no-gi training. If you prefer a more traditional loose short for no-gi work, the Hexagon MMA Shorts are an excellent choice.

How do I care for these shorts?

Machine wash cold or warm on a gentle cycle. The shorts are tumble dry safe, though air drying extends the life of the stretch fabric and colours. Wash inside out to protect the hex print.
