This Dutch premium short offers the freedom of movement and fit that experienced Muay Thai and kickboxing fighters expect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis short is designed for fighters who train regularly or compete in Muay Thai, kickboxing or K-1. The classic cut with high splits and lightweight polyester fabric gives you the leg movement needed for high kicks and knee strikes. If you're just starting out in combat sports or mainly do fitness boxing, a regular sports short may be more comfortable. The material is smooth polyester: some athletes like this because it doesn't stick, others prefer a softer feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDifference from standard sports shorts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA Muay Thai short like this Caged Classic has much shorter legs and higher side splits than a regular sports short or MMA short. This provides unlimited freedom of movement for high kicks and clinch work, but may feel unfamiliar at first. The elastic waistband sits snugly around your waist and the short sits looser around the legs. Standard sports shorts are longer and fit tighter around the thighs, which restricts Muay Thai techniques but provides more coverage. For authentic Thai techniques, the classic short is the better choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in sizes S, M, L, XL and XXL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from 100% polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSplit on both sides for maximum leg movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElastic waistband\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures Caged logo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen choosing your size, refer to the size chart at the top of the page. Measure your waist circumference and compare it to the chart: the size refers to your waist measurement, not the dimensions of the short itself. The fit varies depending on body type. The model in the photo is 198 cm tall, weighs 90 kg and wears size XL. If you're unsure between two sizes: remember that the elastic band will give, but the short should fit comfortably around your waist without pinching or slipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Caged a good choice for Muay Thai shorts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, Caged is a Dutch premium combat sports brand and a top choice for serious training and competition. The Classic shorts have the traditional fit and durable finish that experienced fighters expect, and are used by many Dutch kickboxers and Muay Thai fighters for both training and competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat size Caged Muay Thai shorts do I need?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure your waist circumference at the narrowest point of your waist and compare it to the size chart. The size designation (S, M, L, XL, XXL) refers to your own waist circumference in centimetres, not the dimensions of the short. Note: the fit can vary depending on body type, so check the chart carefully before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDo these Muay Thai shorts run small or large?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fit varies depending on body type and we see mixed feedback. Some athletes find their usual size too loose, others find it too tight. Always use the size chart and measure your waist circumference accurately. The elastic band provides some give, but choose a size that fits comfortably around your waist without pinching or slipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use these shorts for kickboxing or K-1 as well?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, these Caged shorts are suitable for all standing combat sports: Muay Thai, kickboxing, K-1 and Thai boxing. The high splits and short legs are ideal for high kicks and knee strikes. For MMA or grappling they are less suitable because the smooth polyester fabric provides little grip on the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I care for these Muay Thai shorts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWash these shorts by hand only in cold water with a mild detergent. Do not machine wash, do not tumble dry and do not iron. The 100% polyester fabric dries quickly in the air. Hand washing keeps the elastic waistband and logo looking good longer and prevents damage to the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between this Classic and more expensive Muay Thai shorts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Caged Classic offers the essential features of a good Muay Thai short: polyester fabric, side splits and elastic waistband. More expensive models often have satin fabric, embroidered details or extra-wide waistbands. For training and competition the Classic is completely adequate; the more expensive variants are mainly a matter of preference and appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caged","offers":[{"title":"S","offer_id":47582301552987,"sku":"CGDMTS-108-S","price":39.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":47582301585755,"sku":"CGDMTS-108-M","price":39.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":47582301618523,"sku":"CGDMTS-108-L","price":39.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":47582301651291,"sku":"CGDMTS-108-XL","price":39.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXL","offer_id":48279746773339,"sku":"CGDMTS-108-XXL","price":39.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/7531\/5641\/files\/Caged_Muay_Thai_Shorts_Black.jpg?v=1756102228","url":"https:\/\/thefightcompany.fr\/en\/products\/caged-muay-thai-shorts-classic-black-white","provider":"The Fight Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
