Lacross Gloves.

Postby Blitz. » Tue Apr 05, 2011 2:46 pm

This is more so just to calrify something. If a Playing is wearing lacross gloves and goes to grapple its counted towards leather armor right? The Reason i ask is because they're huge and bulky. But another question would MMA gloves count towards the same thing??

3.6.2. A Combatant wearing plastic safety equipment is treated as leather Armor for grappling purposes only


Im like 99% sure the Lacross Gloves go under this rule, but im not sure about the MMA gloves or hand protection with some padding/Bulkiness.

Might sound newby but just making sure. Thanks!

It depends if the lacross gloves have rigid plastic in them. I'd say you're probably fine *not* counting them as armor if they're like most lacross gloves I've seen.

MMA gloves do not count as armor for grappling purposes.

Padded gloves, totally ok, if they have plastic bits and that, then they fall under the leather grappling rule.
