How to Make Your Martial Arts Gear Last Longer

Maintaining your martial arts gear is essential for both hygiene and longevity. Here are some tips:
  1. Wash Uniforms Regularly: Use cold water to prevent shrinking, and air-dry to maintain the material’s integrity.
  2. Disinfect Protective Gear: Wipe down gloves, shin guards, and headgear with antibacterial wipes after each use to avoid bacteria build-up.
  3. Hand Wraps: Wash hand wraps after every use to prevent odours and bacteria.
  4. Store Equipment Properly: Keep gear in a cool, dry place to avoid mould or mildew, especially after training sessions.
Proper maintenance extends the life of your gear and keeps you safe and hygienic during training.
