What to wear in Gi and No-Gi divisions. Gi measurements are checked at the event.

Gi

Material

  • Cotton or cotton-like fabric only, never so thick or hard that it can’t be gripped.
  • A woven-fabric gi is required in every division.
  • EVA or similar filling inside the collar is allowed if the collar meets the size and rigidity limits.

Colour and patches

  • Any colour, any BJJ gi. Judo gis are not allowed in youth and adult divisions.
  • Clean, without tears, and odourless.
  • Patches are sewn on, only in the areas shown below, and never where they would get in the way of a grip.

Belt

  • 4–5 cm wide, in your rank colour, with a black tip. Black belts have a red or white tip.
  • Wrapped twice around the waist, tied with a double knot, with the ends hanging 20–30 cm.

Under the gi
