It depends, but the best thing to do is to ask your instructor. If they require shorts as part of the uniform, then they should have a pro shop that supplies them. If they don't have your size in stock, then they should give you a free pass until they do.



As far as gloves and other equipment, a lot of places have some community equipment, but the thing is, do you really want to use gear that almost everyone else who walks in the door wears and you really aren't sure how long it has been since it's been cleaned last.



Finally, when it comes to gear do not buy cheap stuff. You will pay for it in the long run as you will have to replace it quicker. Also, if you buy cheap pads, then your partners have to kick or hit cheap pads, which isn't cool. Also, your gym may have requirements as to which vendors that you can purchase for insurance reasons. Check with them first.

You would be lucky to be let off in the second lesson at the gym i was training in. I strongly recommend you get some gear asap as it is quite a physical martial art. If you don't wear gear. I guarantee you will get hurt.
