Brazilian Jiujitsu (BJJ) Gi Buying Guide

It looks like the very same issues often appear when individuals start Brazilian JiuJitsu…

Lots of individuals inquire “Can I just use any gi or kimono for BJJ?”

Well, you could, however I highly instruct against it. To the untrained eyes, they look comparable, but are all very different sorts of uniforms. For example, a judo uniform has a loose cut; the sleeves as well as collar will probably be much easier for your opponent to grab and employ against you. And the taekwondo or even karate uniform are extremely slim to make it in BJJ, they’ll tear after a couple of grappling sessions.

Here’s a list of 5 products that I can tell you for a fact you may not realize that you’re missing, but will be very happy with once you’ve bought them:Continue reading
