Important info for the user
How to Choose the Right BJJ Gi Size
Fit Preference: A snug fit helps prevent grips but shouldn’t restrict movement.
Shrinkage: Some Gis shrink after washing. Check if your Gi is pre-shrunk.
Body Type: If you’re between sizes, consider your arm and leg length; ‘L’ (long) sizes provide extra length.
Competition Rules: IBJJF and other federations have specific size regulations.
Why Proper Gi Sizing Matters
A properly fitted Gi enhances your ability to perform techniques efficiently, prevents excessive fabric from being used against you, and improves durability by reducing unnecessary wear and tear.
