Muay Thai Shorts in Mauritius
Muay Thai shorts cut short and wide for the hip, stocked at Nova Sports in Port Louis.
Why the cut is what it is
Muay Thai shorts are short and wide at the leg for one reason: the hip has to travel. You cannot throw a head kick or bring a knee up to the clinch in shorts that bind at the thigh, which is why boxing or fitness shorts feel wrong the first time you try to kick in them. The wide leg is function, not fashion.
The waistband matters as much as the leg. It should sit comfortably without a drawstring cinched into you, because you will be taking knees to it and bending at the hip for an hour. Sizing runs by waist rather than by leg length. Tell us your waist on WhatsApp and we will confirm before you come in. See the Muay Thai range for guards, gloves and pads.
Why are Muay Thai shorts so short?
To let the hip travel. A longer, tighter short stops a head kick and a high knee before your leg does.
How do I choose a size?
Sizing runs by waist, not leg length. Send us your waist measurement on WhatsApp and we will confirm before you come in.
Can I use boxing shorts for Muay Thai?
You can, but they are cut longer and narrower and will restrict your kicks and knees.
Where can I buy Muay Thai shorts in Mauritius?
