Best sports & outdoors clothing according to redditors

Amazon? One of my coaches recommends these https://www.amazon.com/Sanabul-Essentials-Preshrunk-Special-Sizing/dp/B07CBQ45GF

Please do your training partners a favor and buy a second gi then.

Dude, I'm not trying to be a dick, but that shit is gross. Hygiene is so important in this sport. I can't imagine I'm in the minority on Team "wash after every class"...

If you don't mind me piggybacking off your post, u/UncleSkippy, I also have a A1 white gi, like new (wife wore it twice, threw out her back, and said "Welp I'm done with BJJ").

Same rule applies: if you only have 1 other gi, first come / first serve. It says A1, but it's much closer to an A2. Please look at the size chart in the link!!

Even cheaper, I've rolled with people who have these and they aren't bad

Oh, rollmore. Nice, they give away colored belts with their value gis, another reason to buy from them.

In any case, back to your question - you can get a decent belt for $10 on Amazon (and a Fuji no less, to match your gi). No reason not to buy it separately.

i almost pains me to say it, because i hate their marketing, but Shoyoroll are legit. if you buy a "comp standard" it will be about the same price as any quality gi. they actually have one that you can pre-order now.
since it is your first one i would recommend Sanabul. you can get one for $70 or less and they are not bad quality. i bought one for my wife, because i half way thought she would quit. now a handful of guys i train with own one because they saw hers and wanted a cheap gi. https://www.amazon.com/Sanabul-Essentials-Version-Preshrunk-Fabric/dp/B00P9W4GD6/

I just checked out some on Amazon and wanted to know if this $40k one is worth it....

https://www.amazon.com/Fuji-BJJ-Uniform-White-A3/dp/B00GIHVQBG/ref=sr_1_5?s=sports-and-fitness&ie=UTF8&qid=1527085997&sr=1-5&keywords=bjj+gi

$50 bucks, for a full gi. You're Welcome.

I think Fuji gis are great and cheap. Available on Amazon for around $85 (http://smile.amazon.com/Fuji-BJJ-Uniform-White-A3/dp/B00GIHVQBG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1464968568&sr=8-1&keywords=fuji+gi). They go on sale for $70 on bjjhq.com if you are not in a rush.

I'm just getting started, so I cheeped out figuring it would be worth the risk if it turned out terrible, and I bought this Gi from "Your Jiu Jitsu Gear" on Amazon.

It has worked out fantastically so far.

Sanabul's has their brand of gi for pretty inexpensive on amazon.com with prime shipping.
http://www.amazon.com/RELEASE-Sanabul-Essentials-Version-Preshrunk/dp/B00P9W4GJA

Otherwise, a no frills fuji is a good, relatively inexpensive way to get started.

I have a pair of Sanabul's fight shorts too -- I use 'em for no-gi (with some 'starter' brand spats).
http://www.amazon.com/Sanabul-Essential-Cross-Workout-Shorts/dp/B016YO1YDM

Are you in the US? Or somewhere else?

www.bjjhq.com will sometimes have killer deals on gis as well.

I have a black and red in my rotation for about 4 months now. Durable, cheap, get the job done.

For that amount you can buy either sanabul or elite from ebay both really good starter gis, I own both they had held pretty good.

Welcome...to hell, SINNER! Kano turns his face away from you as a single tear rolls down his cheek.

1. Guard pulling? Try this. It works even better with two grips on
   
2. Yoko tomoe is certainly "safer" than regular tomoe in that uke doesn't fly as high AND you have control of both their arms (if you grip the triceps)
   
3. Gi - REJOICE FOR YOU ARE FREE, BROTHER! Personally, I'd recommend the Grips Primero 2.0 (which is hard to find - maybe try the 3.0) or the 93Brand (which I eventually I got use to; the Grips gi's are preshrunk and the 93 aren't). People have good things to say about the Sanabul gi's too. Me? I'm getting a black gi with orange collars and a nice Cobrai Kai patch on the back...just to let whitebelts know that yes, I heel hook on the first date. My wife has also drawn me nice unicorns and rainbows to put on my pink gi pants.
   
4. Solo Drills: Look into FlowFit2 (which is a nice, discrete program of 15 minutes), or put something together yourself from the source material, or consider bag or ball drills. Shadow uchikomi (on the ground) are viable also. Eg - bridge, go to turtle, sit through etc

This is all you need bro, my first and only gi....I train 4 times a week with it and still love it 6 months later, great price too!

When you want a good quality gi, at a good quality price, look no further than: The Sanabul Essentials Version 2 Ultra Light BJJ Jiu Jitsu Gi with Preshrunk Fabric!!!!!!!!!!!!!
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CFVA0XI/ref=twister_B00P9W4FH8

what is your budget range?

personally i have tried:

Habrok

Gr1ps


So far I have the most mat time with the Gr1ps gi that I own and have been super happy with the fit/weight/durability of it, and just got a new one for Black Friday. I just got the Habrok but so far I like it.


Quite a few people that I have trained with have had the Sanabul gi and they seem to hold up well. The people I know that have them like them.

Someone posted this one last week, I picked one up and the quality is great for the price. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K2SSD5Y/ref=twister_dp_update?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

The Sanabul Essentials Gi is only $70 and they're pretty nice for that price point.

those aren't cheap... I'd rather get this Flow or Fuji from Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/Sanabul-Essentials-Version-Preshrunk-Fabric/dp/B00P9W4GD6/

check out the fuji all around on amazon, bout as good it gets for the price. I have 1 that's 2 years old and still in solid condition. You'll probably have to buy your own belt and a mouthguard is a good idea if you're going to be sparring.

Check out the FAQ for more answers https://www.reddit.com/r/bjj/wiki/index

consider asking the parents of the other 50% to make some donation. to buy 2 gis for their kid from like amazon, the Sanabul is real cheap, and donate one.

For a new BJJ gi, I'd go with a regular Fuji judo gi from Amazon, as they tend to be a bit cheaper and it'll do for a starter gi. You can also look at various review/recommend sites for a starter BJJ gi.

If you're really hard up for money, you may also just ask some of the other students there if they have any old gi's your size that you could borrow.

You can get Judo gis on Amazon for $40 - $60. The sizes are different though.

Amazon

Buy this gi in white. It's $50. I bought the blue one a year and a half ago, it's still going strong. If I forgot to have a clean gi, I'll wash this thing and dry it on hot, it will dry in 25 mins. It doesn't shrink, it's pretty decent, and it's held up to the most neglect and abuse I've ever shown a gi. I love it. It's like your used car with 320k miles that starts every time. I think I've worn it 4 times in 24 hours before.

You have to click on the used ones:

They are still in the packaging, I believe they are ones that are returned, like someone bought it, it didn't fit so they returned it to Amazon, they can't sell them as new anymore, even though they are.

Mine was perfectly new, not even washed once, with all the tags still on it.

http://www.amazon.com/Fuji-7000-A10-PARENT-BJJ-Uniform/dp/B00H87UA2G

I own a pair of Fuji's and they are both great training Gis for cheap. A good place to start.

For the rest of it? It's going to be the hardest thing you've ever done in your life. Remember that you are only competing against yourself. You should only be concerned with whether you are better now than you were 6 months ago. That's the only progress measurement that matters.

It will not shrink enough, and you will be swimming in it.

Gi-shrinkage is somewhere in the 7% to 15%

Edit: if you need a cheap quality gi, Sanabul has gis for $65 here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P9W4GJA/ref=twister_dp_update?_encoding=UTF8&th=1&psc=1

I in a similar situation as you, I am pretty new to BJJ so I have a cheap 50$ gi my gym sells. But I have been eyeing https://www.amazon.com/Fuji-BJJ-Uniform-White-A3/dp/B00GIHVQBG/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1510337995&sr=8-3&keywords=fuji%2Bbjj%2Bgi&th=1&psc=1 for Christmas. I don't think it comes with a belt though.

Keto is great too, I have been a bit off the wagon recently but still loosing weight and feeling good so I am just going with it. I have been having 100 or less carbs a day and just lowering my fat a bit and its working for me, I think doing BJJ 3 times a week is what is driving that though.

https://www.amazon.com/Fuji-BJJ-Belt-White-A2/dp/B00GIHZ2H0/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

A few of the guys at my gym have bought these, they seem pretty solid for only being $69. I'll probably buy one soon to test out if my weight loss has gotten my ass from A4 to A3 yet.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P9W4GAE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_xrAjzb1WCVRC2

I’ve got this one:

Sanabul Essentials v.2 Ultra Light Pre Shrunk BJJ Jiu Jitsu Gi (A1, White) See Special Sizing Guide https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P9W4GD6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_o-4wCbPVGM096

I’ve been rolling with it twice a week for about 8 months. Still feels pretty new. I’m in Texas so the lightweight is nice during the long summer.

Probably not top quality, but seems like a great value given my experience with it.

No one can answer that for you. $75 dollars would be cheap relatively.. but your instructor is also only a blue... better be the best blue belt in your state lol.

I just got this gi today and rolled in it... it's damn comfortable and light weight and cheap (and looks awesome): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VIKD418?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

Also www.gr1ps.com is having 50% off with "gr1ps xmas" code at checkout. Waiting to receive that one.

Sanabul gi's are like $55 on Amazon. they are perfectly fine and just as good as gi's Ive bought that were 100% more $. The only knock I have is they come with twill pants and not ripstop. They make a "pro" gi too that is cheap, its liek $85 i think.

cheap one

I ordered the white one from that page

They are thicker and seem to cool better imo. I like these and they're cheap.

Sanabul is pretty cheap (for a gi, still kind of expensive in general) and is well regarded. I think it runs big though. Based on what I know, which is not much (I haven't been training long enough), we're at the point where even budget Gis like this should hold up for a while:

Edit: It looks like your jiu jitsu gear is a bit cheaper and comes with a free belt.

Most everyone at my gym wears a mouthpiece when they roll.

For spats, you can get a pair of sanabuls at a very reasonable price on Amazon. I like them and they're going strong after 8 months.

Sanabul Essential Mens Tights (Large, Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KT2MFCO

Pick up some compression shorts to go under them while you're at it.

Fuji indeed. $70's a deal, but is that including shipping?

Amazon has a new $69 gi with free shipping, I think, that's actually decent according to the reviews. I now own one, and while the fabric seems a little light, it didn't shrink in the dryer (I shrink all my gis and hot wash/dry them) nearly as much as I thought it might and has held up well so far.

It doesn't feel quite as nice as the Fuji intuitively, but neither has gone bad on me. Actually, I got a Fuji that had only been used twice on CL right after getting it, so I can compare the two and see which falls apart first.

I'll get back to you in a couple years and let you know.

Wow what a great deal! I'd buy one for that price right this moment. Sadly if I google for that same thing I get https://www.amazon.com/Fuji-Double-Weave-Judo-Uniform/dp/B00GII15Q6?th=1&psc=1 which is $95.00 for size 7. Congrats!

I don't know if anyone else will see your question and I usually don't chime in on gi-buying discussions, since I am not familiar with the brands available in North America, but I suggest going to Amazon (even if you don't intent to buy there) and use their customer ratings to find a product.

You could try this one for example (may come without belt though):

I've been happy with Sanabul. Seems like a lot of value for what you pay: http://www.amazon.com/RELEASE-Sanabul-Essentials-Version-Preshrunk/dp/B00P9W4GD6/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1464976339&sr=8-2&keywords=sanabul

there ya go

Thanks so much for the input. All I have to go off of is the online promotion pics. Looking at the Amazon listing, it looks rather light? Am I incorrect? I'd love to see pics!

quick search, also search here for brown belts (i remember a similar question for that color, might have more brand names listed), also check out rollmore.com / mmawarehouse / or any other big sites that sell belts and lots of brands.
