GreenDragon Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I am looking for suggestions on a good jiu jitsu gi for less than $90.00USD, I might be in the market for one very soon. The search function reveals many threads about this, but new Gi's come out all the time and new members sign up here all the time, so I thought re-posting the question might yield some fresh results. The gameness single weave looks good at $85, but I have heard it sucks...from one person, who sells gis and was telling me the Ouano gi is a better buy for the money $80 (supposedly it is a one piece gold weave)(maybe his margins are better on the Ouano)?Anyone own either of these gis and can comment?Anyone suggest a different gi for less than $90USD that is as good or better?

chrisval Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 My school uses the basic white Hayashi Brand. I bought my son a blue one for Christmas too...very nice, takes tons of abuse and cost about $50. The white ones start at about $40, and you can also get it in unbleached. The tops are very nice, the pants fairly basic drawstring with minimalist knee pads.We dressed ours up with some patches from our parent school (Charles Gracy) the look really good.http://www.martialartsmart.net/Uniforms_Judo_Jujutsu.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UseoForce Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 I can't remember how much single weave Atama's are, but I have one and love it! If it works, use it!If not, throw it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenDragon Posted June 19, 2006 Author Share Posted June 19, 2006 I could be mistaken, but I heard that a Judo Gi and a Jiu Jitsu Gi were different...the Jiu Jitsu Gi is cut to fit a little tighter and a Judo gi is cut to have a little more play.

ps1 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Yes...you are correct about the cut differences in the BJJ gi and a Judo gi. If your instructor has a wholesale account with Atama, you can get them for around $80. Otherwise that brand will cost around $100 plus shipping.
