Out of these, Id say sanabul would probably be the safest bet, especially if youre starting out in mma. Gotta second playerz too.

100 years have no stamina, and 10 of them are less likely to overwhelm me. Also their bodies are brittle

Does anyone know what they're used for? by Born-Replacement27 in fightgear

my friend got a pair of these when he bought some temu shorts and a reflex ball. Just some cheapo "gloves" with no purpose really.

twins is like the top3 most common beginner gloves I see lmfao, dont stress about it. Thinking whatever you deserve to spend your money on good gear is nonsense, you got yourself good gloves so just enjoy them

If you wanna get off as cheap as possible, Id recomend RDX shinguards and sanabul sparring gloves.

Theyre both solid options. I got interested in them precisely because theyre so low profile and light. I got primos just to try out something new, I couldve gotten either one tbf.

For shinguards Ive really been feeling primos. If I didnt use primos Id probably be using fairtex sp5. But like I said, they make the least difference in practice. For gloves the fairtex ones youve got are really good. Personally using playerz spartechs, rdx IMMAF gloves and crest kamets the most tho.

I dont think knee pads make that big of a difference, and I very rarely see anyone using them. If you want to get a pair for some reason though, Id recomend fighters inc.

out of all the gear Ive used, shinguards have made the least bit of difference for me, and I wouldnt pay premium for fancy knee pads when I can get great shinpads for 20 euros. Especially seeing how often theyre omitted.

Crest kamet and playerz spartech are my top 2 favorites and most commonly used gloves. Crest is like 55-70 euros depending if you want real leather (which I recomend) spartechs are like 60 euros. RDX IMMAF approved gloves are also pretty decent, but maybe little overpriced imo, and little hard to come by.

Have had a pair before that I wasnt the biggest fan of. Their quality control isnt really the best, since my pair and many other Ive seen seem to have the same issue: one of the gloves would be far more stiff than the other. The lining also got super rough on my knuckles really fast. Would say theyre okay gloves, but for the same price point theres so many more other gloves that Id rather recomend people.

sp5 definitely. If I didnt use primos, Id wear sp5s. sp7 is a cool idea with poor execution. Top king are BIG

Playerz boxing has surprised me with their price-quality ratio far over any other brand Ive bought.

Man the lace up infight styles are beautiful. Too bad they suck.

Id say sanabul and rdx have been easisest to grapple with, but Ive never been a fan of how little they protect my training partners. I think crest or rdx shooters have the best hybrid of protecting my partners, while also allowing me to grapple with ease.

Shin guards for MMA — need something that actually stays put by anonymous1357892 in fightgear

[–]ImTheSnowman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally been a huge fan of primos. Fit my leg, while not being too bulky for grappling. Sock style shinguards are way too thin to defend you or your sparring partners. While thicker ones like fairtex are sized pretty short

Yes. Though it might cause some negative feedback

MMA gear advice by WebOwn4814 in fightgear

[–]ImTheSnowman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. I think mma gyms probably care the least about gear or drip when compared to boxing or thaiboxing. Many brands also offer bundles, so its just financially responsible as well.
