ONX Combat Rash Guard – Short Sleeve

HEAVY-DUTY COMPRESSION BUILT FOR COMBAT SPORTS.
Most rash guards cut corners on weight, and thin fabric is what rides up, goes see-through, and wears out at the seams. This one is built heavier on purpose. A 300 GSM polyester and spandex fabric holds compression, stays opaque, and takes the friction of daily mat work in a short sleeve cut.

Combat Rash Guard | Short Sleeve

Heavyweight MMA & BJJ Rash Guard

The ONX Combat Rash Guard Short Sleeve is an MMA rashguard and BJJ rashguard built heavier than the standard. Its fabric weighs 300 GSM, or grams per square meter, the standard measure of how heavy and dense a fabric is. A higher GSM means a denser, tougher fabric, and that density is what matters here: most rash guards sit at 180 to 220 GSM, so at 300 GSM this one stays more opaque under stretch, holds up longer through daily mat work, and delivers firmer compression. The short sleeve cut keeps the arms free for grips while the heavyweight fabric holds everything in place.

This is the short sleeve version, cut for athletes who want their arms free for clinch and grip work or who train in warmer conditions. If you want full-arm coverage and abrasion protection, the long sleeve version uses the same 300 GSM build. Sublimation-ready construction makes either one a fit for gyms and teams building custom fightwear.

Construction

Built to Hold Up, Round After Round

HEAVYWEIGHT 300 GSM FABRIC
A dense polyester and spandex fabric that stays opaque under stretch and holds firm compression. Heavier than the standard 180 to 220 GSM rash guard, built for durability and a premium hand feel.

ANTI-RIDE FIT WITH SILICONE GRIPPER
A silicone waist gripper and athletic cut keep the short sleeve locked in place. No shifting or riding up mid-roll, so you spend zero energy adjusting it.

FLATLOCK STITCHING & REINFORCED PANELS
Flatlock seams sit flat to reduce chafing during grappling. Reinforced stress panels hold up in the high-friction areas where lighter rash guards break down.

MOISTURE-WICKING, QUICK-DRY
Pulls sweat off the skin and dries fast to keep you cool through long sessions and back-to-back rounds.

UV PROTECTION & LOW-PROFILE COLLAR
Built-in UV resistance takes it from the mat to outdoor and surf training, and a low-profile athletic collar stays flat and out of the way.

FAQ

Short Sleeve Rash Guard FAQs

What size should I order?

The short sleeve rash guard runs true to size in S, M, L, XL, and XXL. Order your normal size for a compression fit. The cut is snug by design for a second-skin feel, so size up if you prefer a looser fit. Sizing is consistent across all four colors.

What is it made of, and how heavy is it?

Polyester and spandex at 300 GSM. GSM means grams per square meter, the standard measure of fabric weight, and 300 GSM is heavyweight, well above the 180 to 220 GSM of standard rash guards. That density is what gives it durability, opacity, and firm compression. Polyester handles moisture-wicking and color retention, while spandex adds the 4-way stretch and shape retention.

Should I choose short sleeve or long sleeve?

The short sleeve keeps your arms free for grips and clinch work and runs cooler in hot training environments. The long sleeve version, built from the same 300 GSM fabric, adds full-arm coverage and abrasion protection for colder conditions or more mat contact. Choose by climate and how much coverage you want.

What sports is it built for?

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, MMA, wrestling, functional fitness and CrossFit, plus surfing and outdoor training thanks to the built-in UV protection. The heavyweight fabric and anti-ride fit suit grappling and striking equally.

  • HEAVYWEIGHT COMPRESSION FEEL: A dense 300 GSM fabric delivers firm muscle support and a structured second-skin fit. More support and stability than standard lightweight rash guards.
  • 4-WAY STRETCH MOBILITY: Stretches in every direction for a full range of motion. Shoulders and arms move freely through scrambles, shots, and submissions.
  • ANTI-RIDE ATHLETIC FIT: A silicone waist gripper and athletic cut keep the short sleeve in place. No shifting or riding up during rolls and transitions.
  • MOISTURE-WICKING QUICK-DRY FABRIC: Pulls sweat off the skin and dries fast to keep you cool through long sessions. Ready for back-to-back rounds and repeated wear.
  • UV PROTECTION: Blocks sun exposure for outdoor training and surf. The same rash guard works on the mat and in the water.
  • POLYESTER AND SPANDEX CONSTRUCTION: A polyester and spandex fabric built for abrasion resistance and color retention. Flatlock stitching reduces chafing and reinforced stress panels hold up where grappling wears gear down.

Thin rash guards fail in the same places every time: they ride up, they go see-through, and they blow out at the seams. The fix is weight. We built this at 300 GSM, well above the standard 180 to 220 GSM, so the fabric stays opaque under stretch, holds firm compression, and survives daily mat work. Heavier fabric usually costs you mobility. The 4-way stretch is how this one stays dense without slowing the athlete down.


Every ONX product is designed to help athletes perform at their best. This rash guard was built to protect your skin, support your muscles, and hold up through the demands of real combat sports training — from BJJ and MMA to wrestling, functional fitness, and beyond. Heavy-duty compression that works as hard as you do.

ENGINEERED WITH PURPOSE

"I have watched too many guys tug at a rash guard between rounds. That is wasted energy and broken focus. I wanted one that stays put and does its job. This one is heavier than what you are used to, and that is the point. It holds you in, it does not ride up, and it lasts. The short sleeve keeps your arms free for grips while the fabric does the rest."
— Trevor Wittman, ONX Founder & Coach
