I too have that urge and impulse, but I try to keep it under control, cuz otherwise it would destroy me...

hmm, let's see here... over (over applying to all of these, I've had too much cabernet to count precisely) 7 gis, 8 pair nogi shorts, 15 rashguards, 2 pair boxing gloves, 2 pair mma gloves, 2 opro mouthguards that I like but have nothing to really compare them to, 3 pair hitman shorts, 14 pair sprawls, random shorts from clinch gear, ssf gear and others... 3 pairs shin pads, 4 heavybags, a sledgehammer and big honking tire, several medicine balls...

tshirts we won't even get started.

christ this reads like a g&e forum singles ad. and I just came from browsing budovideos. dammit.

My current state of poverty keeps me from developing a proper addiction. But I spend a lot of time looking at gear...

Actually...I dunno how many I have...I think it's about 10...but I'll do a count...

- 4 pair of Truth
- 3 pair of Cagewalk
- 1 pair Clinchgear
- Just bought 2 Nogi Echos (one that I'm not gonna wear for training...one just to lounge in)
- 1 Pride Fightwear

So that's what...11 shorts?...yeah, I guess I don't really have that many, eh?....especially compared to Foz...

That said, I also have a bit of training gear:

- 1 pair Ringside Universal Training gloves
- 1 pair KO Fightgear gloves
- 1 pair KO Fightgear shin pads
- 2 HCK standard single unbleached
- 1 KI karate gi that I wear for TKD
- Twins steel cup
- 1 pair Everlast "High Performance" bag gloves
- 2 Sprawl loose-fit short-sleeve grappling tops

Um...that's it...

Yes, I have a gear buying problem. So far I've avoided buying any clothes, I don't even want to get starting going down that road. In the last six months I've bought:

2 pairs of Ringside boxing gloves
1 pair od CSI MMA gloves
1 pair of Windy slip on bag gloves
1 pair of Top Contender shin guards
1 pair of Windy pro style shin guards
1 shock doc jock
1 Ringside Ab/groin protector
1 pair Rival punch mitts
1 Ringside belly pad
1 set CSI thai pads
and 10 sets of hand wraps
