Difference with modern fight shorts

The Venum Classic shorts follows the traditional Muay Thai cut: slightly longer, with wide side splits and a high, elastic waistband. Modern MMA or kickboxing shorts are often shorter, have Velcro closures and are made from stretch material with multiple panels. The Classic model offers that authentic Thai look and feel, ideal if you value tradition and simplicity. Modern shorts sometimes offer more stretch throughout the shorts, whilst the Classic model relies on the split and supple polyester for freedom of movement.
