I simply cannot kick something 6 feet in the air wearing jeans. Go ahead and try it.
know that you cannot kick as high as you would have if you were wearing something a little bit looser, perhaps even with an element of stretch.
Unlike jeans, MMA shorts will not keep you from kicking the crap out of things that are really tall. Basically, if you can extend your leg to kick something that is six feet tall, MMA shorts will not get in the way. This is because most of the MMA shorts that you can buy have a little touch of spandex blended into the material. This keeps the fabric from ripping as you go about your business wreaking havoc.
Plus, MMA shorts are extremely comfortable. Some clothes are too tight in some places, while being too baggy in others. Although some mixed martial arts shorts may be snug, they will never cut into your skin or make you wish you were wearing some other pair of pants. To tell you the truth, MMA shorts are so comfy, you will want to wear them all the time. It should be a crime to look so good while being so comfortable! Fortunately, it is not and you are unlikely to be arrested for only wearing MMA shorts.
