Fight Wear and Fight Gear
Fight Wear and Fight Gear
Fight Wear and Fight Gear from TapouT, Sprawl, Full Contact Fighter, Punishment Athletic and all the top UFC fight brands. Fight Wear is generally regarded as T Shirts, hooded tops, caps and other fight clothing. Fight Gear is more commonly thought of as fight gloves, groin guards, pads gum sheilds and head guards. Fight shorts can be considered both fight wear and fight gear as although they can double as casual wear they are made specifically for fighters to wear in fights.
Fight wear started with the fight shorts introduced by companies like TapouT in the early days of the UFC. Fight shorts were quickly followed by other fight wear like T shirts and hoodies. These items of Fightwear were normally worn into the ring to keep the fighter warm, but also popularised to be worn outside of fights to shop support for the brand of fightwear. There are now a large number of fight wear copanies producing clothing and apparel.
Fight Gear has a longer heratige than fight wear. Fight gear started with the glove manufacturers. These days it is common for fight gear manufacturers to also produce fight wear to promote their brand. Some of the most popular fight gear is the Thai brands; Windy, Twins and Fairtex for example who have a long history of glove prodction for the highly demanding Muay Thai fighters. Today there are many more companies producing fightgear often from Pakistan. These brands are often cheaper but perhapse lack the experiance of the Thai producers.
There are many different brands producing large ranges of fight gear and fight wear and the majority of these can be purchased at low prices in the UK from Fight Wear Sports Select.
