Gi Shrinking Considerations
None of our gis come pre-shrunk, so they might seem bigger than expected upon receiving them. Wash the gi in hot water and dry in high heat to reduce its size by a few inches. You may have to repeat the cycle an additional 1-2 times.
Wash Info
Wash your training gear in cold water with a mild detergent immediately after training to avoid discoloration and odor. Do not use bleach, otherwise the embroidery will fade and the cotton lifespan will reduce. Alternatively, we recommend using a splash of white vinegar.
Drying Info
You can dry your gis on a low heat cycle. We recommend you hang dry your dry-fits and rashguards.
Returns
Our customer service is just as important as our jiu-jitsu. We are committed to getting it right! If you’re not 100% satisfied with your purchase, simply return the item within 30 days of receiving your order for a full refund on the returned items or an exchange for another item.
Please checkout our Return Policy for more information.
Received a gift that's not quite the right fit or style? No problem! You can return gifts for store credit or exchange them for something else within 30 days of the original purchase date.
