I train, but I watched MMA years before I started training and I still wore the clothing and supported the sport. And who cares if they wear it and don’t know a thing about it? All that matters is that they’re putting money into the sport and helping the companies and the fighters. It’s really hard to believe so many MMA fans, or guys that train get so worked up over MMA clothing. Just be happy the sport is getting bigger.

hey bud read the thread and posts before you make your comments... it wasnt in regards to fans or people who are interested in the sport its about the guys who wear a GSP, Rampage Couture shirt (etc...) and have ZERO interest in MMA or even know who the fighter is... they wear because its "cool" to.. THATS WHO IM TALKING ABOUT!

fighters won't pay big bux for shirts that say another's fighter name on them, these shirts are made for fans or for people who u said have no idea what mma is but want to show they are bad ass. its in style thats why people are wearing it.

I know what you meant. Did you even read all of what I said? “who cares if they wear it and don’t know anything about it?” Like I said, as long as money is going into the sport it is fine with me.

Plus, you did say: “I think mma clothing should only be worn by people that train”. So how are you going to tell me to “read the thread and post before you make a comment” (which also doesn’t make much sense) and then say you are only talking about the people who know "zero" about MMA if you apparently don’t even know what the thread is about?

I’m not really trying to give you a hard time, but was giving you my opinion on it.

thts why i sport sprawl/ clinch gear/ inspirit -- not so inurface

i hate the whole goth look of mma tees

^ Seriously, and why are 90% of MMA realated T shirts black? Most of the ones I own are black because that’s the only option (I’m wearing a black punishment t shirt right now actually) White, or Grey or some other options would be nice. I mean there are a good bit in those colors, but not nearly as many.

It’s like this shirt. I really like this shirt, but with all those colors I think it would look much better on a white T shirt instead.

i kinda am with both sides of the thing.

for one i dont like the posers who wear tapout and affliction, normally because they are douchebags and try to look hard at the bars, but when you ask where they train, they look clueless.

but i also agree with the getting the product out there so they can sponser more fighters. hell tapout sponsers my good friend at my gym.

i stay away from tapout and affliction because well, they are the most worn at the moment. i wear warrior wear, throwdown, sinister, koral, vulkan and my gracie shirts most of the time, because you dont see anyone wearing them.

i think its still ok to make fun of the douchebags who wear mma gear because they are complete posers, because some of them completely deserve it! and to the fat guys eating wings @ the bars cheering loudly for the ufc fights, i support them too.

haha i've only seen black, white, and army green... but 90% are black

[crossdx]

Yeah, black seems to be the most (over)used color, which is why I try to find nice shirts in more varied colors before I wind up with a mostly black t-shirt wardrobe.

Currently of my MMA related shirts, I have 1 white, 1 red, 2 brown, 1 gray, 1 green, and around 4 black shirts.

Well..the new KNOXX line is colorful as hell.... but I dont think it has enough skulls and crossbones for the majority of the mma fans.. lol

And too bad you also have to hunt those shirts down because not all of them are offered on their website. KNOXX tends to send a lot of their clothing to boutiqes, stores and other online stores instead ...im thinking they dont want to bump heads with sales with their affliliates or something.
