I prefer MMA Elite, because it is only $10, and I don't really like TapouT stuff.

Re: Poll: Does wearing Martial Arts gear attract confrontati
Sorry, i didn't read the poll properly. Are Affliction and Tapou shirts considered MA gear? Usually i'm wearing shorts, crappy shirt, wraps, cup and a mouth piece. and that's about it.

Terribly designed overpriced T-shirts are not MMA gear.

Our Walmart sells MMA Elite clothes.
I've never personally seen a fight over a TapOut or whatever shirt, but from what I heard on these boards it seems to happen.

The legendary post by Jack Mcvite
Jack-McVitie said:
I ended up wearing the black one. Cool huh?
I had a couple people ask me if I was a fighter I told them I train a bit and I beat some dudes *** in the parking lot after the movie.
a lot of people came out of the theater hyped n s**t so I called this one guy out who was shadow boxing in the corner.
Everyone gathered around like at the school yard. I went for the flying knee but he countered with a right straight.
I got the takedown easy, he wasnt expecting it. I tryed for an armbar but he defended good. I got side mount and droped some pound and ground before someone pulled me off his battered body.
I then took off my shirt and started challenging random clowns in the crowd who thought they were cool. I wish I had it on tape cause it was pretty bad ***! woulda youtubed it I said "Who else want some? Who want some of Hollywood Jack?"
Then security came and everyone took off.
what a great night. I'm gonna go see the movie agian next week and wear the red shirt this time. My buddy is bringing the camera so it will be on youtube if I happen to serve some clown again.
Its a great movie. you guys should all check it out!

Queue up all of the McVitie jokes...
As far as the poll, anything can attract confrontation. Someone wearing a red shirt in a neighborhood where the local gangs color is blue could attract confrontation. It's not normal and doesn't happen everywhere, but I'm sure it has happened.

Re: Poll: Does wearing Martial Arts gear attract confrontati
I wear my mma gear to Children's Hospital and sign autographs because I train UFC and my autograph is going to be worth tons o' cash when I uppercut KO Dominic Cruz, Jose Aldo, Frankie Edgar, Georges St. Pierre, Anderson Silva, Shogun Rua, Cain Velazquez, Gilbert Melendez, Nick Diaz, Ronaldo Souza, Dan Henderson, Alistair Overeem, Joe Warren, Eddie Alvarez, Ben Askren and Cole Konrad on successive weeks. The total fight time will be less than 20 minutes, and I will fight all the fights at 133 lbs.

You wouldn't believe the situations I get in to when I wear my sumo gear around town, especially when I have to pick my kids up at school or I'm hanging out in front of the women-only gym waiting for my wife.

Re: Poll: Does wearing Martial Arts gear attract confrontati
I wear my mouthpiece at lunch. You should see me take down a Big Mac with that thing in. It draws some stares, sure, but they just be jelly.

I think it's more of a racist prejudice against the people of Japan and the beauty of their ancient culture, that I, as a pasty-white 5'11" 120lb Anglo with an unfortunate case of chronic body acne and rampant hair growth, am trying to honor and represent through practicing the graceful and majestic art of Sumo.
That and haters be hatin'.
