Do spats just help prevent mat burn? Not that I ever trained in a very intense manner, but I rarely wore more than compression shorts under board shorts and a short sleeve compression-style shirt.
Man, I miss BJJ.

Random fighting x fashion thoughts:
Nogi > gi fashion, because I dunno, no matter what you still look like a guy in pajamas.
Shorts over spats are so normal to me now that I don't realize a lot of people find this to be a weird/horrible look on a guy.
The Reebok UFC uniforms are so lame. Clean lines and minimalism have their place but fighting is one of the few times you can wear horribly ostentatious stuff that screams how tough and special you are and it totally makes sense that yes, that's what you should be wearing.
I just realized the other day that VHTS = Very Hard to Submit and this whole time I thought it was something about vegetables.

I talked about this very briefly at .
I used to do lots of different martial arts growing up, and combat cuddles definitely has it's own flavor. A lot of martial arts are traditionally-minded, so the uniforms adhere to this very strict form (which is fine, nothing wrong with that). BJJ and MMA, perhaps because it's newer, or because it got so popular in America, allows for a lot of branding and design in the uniforms, giving it a very conteporary, almost Hood By Air-esque feel. There's times when I legit think that a certain Gi maker would go great with other designers.
Shoyoroll X Supreme
Tatami X Hood By Air
Meerkatsu X Comme Des Garcons Shirt
Some people, like me, will wear BOTH gi and nogi clothes AT THE SAME TIME (i.e. wearing tight compression clothing under their gi, ostensibly as a performance enhancer). I fully admit i wear compression stuff under my gi just because i think it makes me look like Tony Stark in iron man, and i like wearing clothes so much ill take any chance to layer, even in combat cuddles.
Here are some of my favorite spats (which is the term for tights in fight culture, for some reason. maybe a portmanteau of "pants" and "spandex"?). I used to own these but lost them at my academy :(
