Venum Contender Kids BJJ Gi (Black)

RECOMMENDATIONS 

Jiu-jitsu gis are training and combat uniforms that must be comfortable. Accurate sleeve and leg length is important. To ensure a good fit, be accurate with both measurements.

All venum gis are pre-shrunk. Choose the larger size for a larger gi and longer sleeves / legs. Choose the size below for a more fitted gi and shorter sleeves / legs.

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR GI

Over the years there have been many myths on how best to care for a BJJ GI, here, we will explain to you how best to care for your new Tatami Fightwear BJJ GI. Please note that the instructions and advice given in this section are purely for Tatami Fightwear products as other brands may use different methods during production.

WASHING YOUR BJJ GI

The most important thing is to wash your GI as soon as you get home from training, it is essential to wash the sweat out of your GI to avoid skin infections.

Some people may tell you that you have to wash your BJJ Gl in vinegar to keep the colour, or bicarbonate of soda to keep it crystal white. None of these are necessary with Tatami Fightwear BJJ GI's, here is how to best care for your Gl.

• Always wash your BJJ GI at 30-40°C. Washing on a higher temperature can not only cause excessive shrinking but can also warp the collar of the jacket. All of our BJJ GI's have a collars made from a core of EVA rubber giving it strength and durability.Washing and drying on high temperatures can cause the collar to warp out of shape
• Always wash your Gl inside out, this prevents other clothes or indeed the Gl itself from rubbing the fabric. Particularly in coloured BJJ GI's this will help to keep the Gl's correct colour for longer
• If possible wash with an organic or non-bio detergent this will minimise the chemicals interacting with the fabric of Gl
• We are very proud of the colour fastness of all our BJJ GI's. They are treated with a special dye sealing process in manufacture so there is no need to wash with any other products (i.e. vinegar, bicarbonate of soda, etc)
• Air-dry your GI when the wash-cycle ends.
