YOKKAO, one of Thailand’s best-known Muay Thai equipment and lifestyle brands, has officially opened its newest flagship store on Koh Samui.
The new store is YOKKAO’s first location on Samui, adding the island to its growing network of stores in Thailand. It offers the brand’s range of Muay Thai and combat-sports equipment, along with YOKKAO clothing and other apparel.
The brand has also announced that an exclusive Koh Samui Collection is coming soon.
A natural fit for Samui’s Muay Thai scene
The opening makes particular sense on an island that has developed a substantial Muay Thai training scene.
Samui is home to a number of established Muay Thai gyms and training camps, attracting visitors who come specifically to train as well as holidaymakers looking to spend some time learning the sport.
For those staying on the island for a few weeks or longer, having a dedicated YOKKAO store provides another local option for buying gloves, training equipment, shorts, apparel and other fight gear.
It also adds another recognisable international Muay Thai brand to Samui’s sports and fitness scene.
YOKKAO has built a strong reputation internationally for its Muay Thai equipment and apparel, and its expansion to Samui reflects the island’s position as a destination for the growing number of visitors combining travel with combat-sports training.
For visitors already planning to train while they’re here, the new store is a useful addition. For everyone else, it’s another indication of just how established Muay Thai has become as part of the Samui experience.
The YOKKAO Koh Samui store is now open. The Koh Samui Collection is expected to follow soon.
