  • Ranking Jiu Jitsu Gi’s

    If you’re like me, you probably spend a fair amount of time in your Gi.  The feel, the fit, the performance, grip-ability, etc. of the Gi make it more than just a piece of clothing.  But I have always had a hard time finding a really good comparison of various Gi’s that I felt was really credible.  I stumbled across one today however, that I really wanted to share.

    This Jiu Jitsu Gi comparison does a spectacular job of taking input from a lot of different Gi owners, and then applying some really insightful logic to the findings.

    Their end finding?

    Well, while Shoyoroll comes out on top, from a price to value point they highly recommend Padilla and Sons or Sirius.

    But don’t just run with this summary.  I highly suggest you head over and take a look at the full study.
