Split seam or closed seam shorts?

Just reading a bunch of reviews, trying to figure out which fight shorts I want to buy and was hoping for some input from you guys.

With the all the stretchy type material that goes into these types of shorts is a closed seam design adequate for training? I mean i'm just starting out so it's not like i'm throwing kicks at peoples heads or anything (i'm so unflexible right now i don't think i could throw anything higher then someone's waist).

I must admit just from an aesthetic standpoint i prefer the closed seam so if they'd work i'd buy them but if the open seams really do make that big of a difference when grappling and stuff then i'd go with those. If i do go with open seam i'm debating between the sprawl vflex or saving $10 and going with ssf...couldn't find anyone saying anything bad about the sprawls though so it's a tough choice.


EDIT: whoops....spent so much time reading reviews in the review subforum that i posted this in the wrong place...could a mod move this to teh discussion forum, thanks.
