    Default need help choosing gear guys!

    What’s up guys my names andy ive recently started training in MMA and need help choosing my gear
    Looked around a few sites and found a few good deals, I figured I would need:
    Shinguards
    Boxing gloves, these or perhaps these
    Groin guard
    MMA gloves
    Rashguard
    Gumshield
    i also saw an MMA begginers pack
    which looked good value for money.. thoughts
    Do you guys think this is everything I need to train? if not please by all means make some suggestions

    Thanks, Andy.

    If you're only just starting i wouldn't buy expensive gear just yet, get some shin guards from caged steel, i got my groin guard from here only cost a tenner and it's decent, i got a cheap gumshield from JJB sports, and i recommend Sandee boxing+mma gloves from any decent store on here, check out ckamartialartssupplies, anacondacombat or okakafightgear.

    When i start training in the advanced classes i'll start buying better gear

    Caged Steel for most of your base kit - Gloves , Rash Guard etc
    Opro Platinum for the shield and basic groin box is the way to get started.

    If your after a pack let me know what kind of money your looking to spend and I wil see what I can sort for you , as I always try and take care of guys on here if i can
