I have a Thai friend who is willing to ask her sister to buy and ship MT gear to me. I'm hoping to save some money on good equipment. They told me fairtex is good but expensive since they have to order online. (not the same city) With shipping I'm not saving anything. What are the other best brands I should get from there? I'm looking to get these items I don't mind mix and match. 1. boxing gloves 2. Thai Pads 3. kick shield 4. shin guard 5. focus mits Thanks for the help.
Twins and Top King are your best bets outside of Fairtex. You should also consider picking up shorts as well -- what runs ~$50 in the US you can pick up for ~$15 in Thailand LOL. Also, a kick shield is useless if you're getting Thai pads -- get a low kick "suitcase" pad instead. What city are they shipping out of?
