Sanabul has finally listened to the pleas of every practitioner. No more settling for a weirdly fitting “unisex” Gi that doesn’t even seem to fit in one spot properly. We think this is the best BJJ Gi for women in the market right now, based on design and price. Users have said that Tatami does provide a “roomier” fit. You might or might not like that. The skirt is also a little longer than a regular one. The Hayabusa Lightweight Gi provides a distinctive jiu-jitsu training experience that has been tried and tested by many practitioners who are pleased with its features. The Lightweight Gi is made from 420-gsm pearl-weave cotton and the pants are an 8oz ripstop cotton-polyester blend with drawstring providing you with the perfect IBJJF compliant BJJ kimono. A0 – 2.7lbs, A1 – 2.9lbs, A2 – 3lbs, A3 – 3.1lbs, A4 – 3.5lbs, A5- 3.4lbs Hyperfly was officially founded in 2011, after starting out as a family-run business making gis for the Ribeiro University of Jiu Jitsu in San Diego. Now it ships its gis around the world, and sells no gi gear and training accessories like training bags.

Namely, in competition terms, a lightweight Gi will allow you to have a much more relaxed weight cut if you need one at all. In comparison, regular Gis are twice as heavy. While not cheating per se, they do help you turn tournaments into more enjoyable experiences. Plus, competing in them is a lot more comfortable. Once you are dragged into the world of BJJ competitions, whether it be participating in them or simply watching them, you will start to observe a lot of these BJJ Gis. Many competitors prefer this over others as it does exactly what it is advertised to do.Be preshrunk. This means the gi fabric has been shrunk by the manufacturer before it’s made into a gi, minimising – but not removing – any shrinking that will happen once you start regularly washing it. The Hayabusa Goorudo 3 Gold Weave Gi provides a distinctive jiu-jitsu training experience that has been tried and tested by many practitioners who are pleased with its features. After the wash is finished, immediately hang your gi to dry, keeping it away from direct sunlight. Avoiding sunlight is one of the best ways to stop unnecessary fading. Be durable. Longevity is one of the determinants of a BJJ Gi. A premium Gi normally features more stitching and fabric reinforcement all over the Gi compared to a beginner or budget one. One more bit – the drawstrings are made of high-density foam, so you don’t have to worry about stopping the practice/match midway to tighten your pants.

Sanabul is fast becoming a brand that’s rising to the occasion. If they keep up delivering such quality products, they might even surpass some of the “giant” BJJ Gi brands. They offer not just quality Gis, but different designs as well, both at an astonishingly low prices. The perfect Gi to have in your collection, especially as a lightweight option. Be made from good quality fabric. Cotton is the most popular fabric material for Gis. Some budget Gis comes in a blend of cotton and more fabrics, while premium Gis are usually 100% cotton. There are also premium Gis made in hemp which can be quite beneficial in many aspects. Be innovative. A gi brand’s flagship premium gi is generally where they’ll release their cutting edge improvements. For example Origin’s RIFT gi features its SwivelLoc belt as an option instead of a drawstring. For the pants, they have a double layer reinforcement, covering the ankle to the knee area. This is a contrast to an average Gi which most likely will have reinforcement only in the knees. As you kneel, there’s a connection between your knees to the ankle and the ground, making the entire area one stress zone. Additionally, the cuffs are also reinforced with triple stitching and twill tape. Single weave. Single weave technically encompasses other fabric weaves such as pearl weave, but when used to advertise a BJJ gi, it can refer to a basic and affordable weave. Single weave gi fabric is light and cheap, usually used for cheaper gis and children’s gis.As versatile as Gis can get, none offer as much as the Elite Ultra Light. While it is IBJJF legal, as its name suggests, it does come in versions that are not allowed at tournaments. The colors on offer, despite the regular three, are grey, navy, and pink. A1 to A5 sizes are available for each color variant. Extremely cool design and a great fit for both male and female grapplers. This Gi feels as light as a rashguard when you’re wearing it. It features anti-odor and antimicrobial properties and doesn’t allow a buildup of sweat. Virtually indestructible and 100% pre-shrunk. Comes with a free BJJ belt. Your Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Gi serves as your armour and you need it to perform as hard as you do. It also needs to feel and fit like it was custom-made for you.
