Womens BJJ Gi – Female Cut with Hot Pink Trim

Description

A lightweight BJJ gi designed specifically for women’s bodies. The female cut fits properly through the shoulders, chest, and hips, while the hot pink stitching and trim add personality to the classic black gi. Built for training and IBJJF competition approved.

Why Female-Specific Cut Matters

Generic unisex gis don’t fit women properly. The shoulders are too wide, the chest doesn’t accommodate curves, and the pants are cut for straight hips. You end up with excess fabric bunching in some places and pulling tight in others.

This gi is patterned specifically for female bodies:

Narrower Shoulders: The jacket shoulders are proportioned for women’s frames. This eliminates the wing-like excess fabric that happens when women wear men’s gis, giving opponents less material to grip during training.

Shaped Through the Chest: The jacket has shaping through the torso rather than being a straight cut. This provides proper coverage and fit without excess fabric while allowing full range of motion.

Tapered Sleeves: The sleeves narrow appropriately for women’s arms. No more rolled-up excess fabric at the wrists that gets in the way during grips and transitions.

Hip-Conscious Pants: The pants accommodate women’s hip-to-waist ratio. They sit properly at the waist without gaping at the back or being too tight through the hips and thighs.

Construction and Materials

250gsm Pearl Weave Jacket: Pearl weave is the gold standard for BJJ gis. The 250gsm weight gives you the perfect balance – substantial enough to withstand grips and holds, light enough to train comfortably even in warm gyms. The weave creates a tight, durable fabric that maintains its shape through countless training sessions.

8oz Ripstop Pants: Ripstop fabric is engineered to resist tearing. If a small tear does start, the ripstop weave prevents it from spreading. The 8oz weight is light and mobile – you won’t feel weighed down during movement drills or scrambles. The stretchy drawcord waist adjusts for comfort during different phases of training.

EVA Foam Collar: The EVA collar provides structure without excessive stiffness. It resists being gripped and manipulated during chokes while remaining comfortable against your neck. EVA foam doesn’t absorb as much sweat as traditional cotton batting, which means less moisture retention and faster drying.

Triple Reinforced Stitching: All stress points – shoulders, armpits, side seams, knees – have triple reinforcement. This gi is built to handle the pulling, twisting, and friction that happens during BJJ training. The reinforcement extends the life of the gi significantly.

Double Reinforced Knee Padding: Extra layers at the knees protect both the gi and your knees during groundwork. The additional padding reduces wear in the area that experiences the most abrasion, while the hot pink stitching adds a design element.

The Hot Pink Details

The hot pink trim and stitching create visual contrast against the black fabric:

• Pink stitching on the jacket lapel and seams
• Pink trim on the jacket
• Pink belt loops on the pants
• Pink stitching on the double-reinforced knee padding

If you’re required to wear black for your gym or competition, this gi meets that requirement while still having personality. The pink is accent stitching, not large patches or embroidery.

Training Performance

Lightweight Freedom: At 250gsm, this is a lightweight gi. You can move freely, change positions quickly, and won’t feel exhausted from carrying excess fabric weight. This makes it excellent for technique-focused training, drilling, and longer rolling sessions.

Breathability: Pearl weave has natural ventilation between the weave. Combined with the lightweight construction, this gi stays cooler than heavier alternatives. In Australian gyms where air conditioning isn’t always strong, this matters.

Grip Resistance: The tight pearl weave makes it harder for training partners to establish deep grips. While they can still grip your gi, the smooth, tight weave doesn’t give them as much purchase as looser weaves.

Competition Ready

IBJJF Approved: This gi meets IBJJF (International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation) regulations for competition wear. The fabric weight, gi length, sleeve length, and pants length all comply with competition standards.

If you compete in other organizations, check their specific rules, but most competition organizations follow similar guidelines to IBJJF.

Sizing and Fit

Available in four female-specific sizes: F1, F2, F3, F4

Refer to the size chart for accurate measurements. The female sizes are not simply scaled-down men’s sizes – they’re proportioned for women’s body shapes. If you’re between sizes, consider:

• Size down if you prefer a more fitted gi or plan to shrink it
• Size up if you’re between sizes or prefer more coverage

This gi is pre-shrunk, but expect some minor shrinkage (2-3%) after the first few washes. Wash in cold water and air dry to minimize shrinkage.

Care and Maintenance

Washing: Wash in cold water with mild detergent after each use. This prevents bacteria buildup and keeps the gi fresh. Cold water minimizes shrinkage and color fading.

Drying: Air dry. Hang it outside in the shade or indoors with good ventilation. The lightweight fabric dries relatively quickly. Avoid direct sunlight which can fade the black color over time.

Never Use a Dryer: High heat causes shrinkage and breaks down the fabric fibers. Even if you’re in a hurry, air drying is essential for maintaining the gi’s fit and durability.

Storage: Don’t leave your gi balled up in your gym bag. Hang it to air out after washing. This prevents odor buildup and extends the life of the gi.

What’s Not Included

The gi comes without a belt. This is standard practice – you wear the belt color that matches your current rank. If you need a belt, we sell BJJ belts separately in all colors and sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the women’s cut differ from a unisex gi?
The women’s cut has narrower shoulders, shaped torso, tapered sleeves, and pants that accommodate hip-to-waist ratio. Unisex gis are cut for male bodies and result in excess fabric, poor fit, and more material for opponents to grip.

Will this gi shrink after washing?
The gi is pre-shrunk, but expect 2-3% additional shrinkage after the first few washes. Always wash in cold water and air dry to minimize shrinkage. Never use a dryer as high heat causes significant shrinkage.

Is this gi suitable for competition?
Yes, this gi is IBJJF approved and meets competition standards for fabric weight, length, and construction. The hot pink stitching is accent work that complies with most competition rules, but verify your specific competition’s uniform requirements.

What should I wear under this gi?
Women typically wear a sports bra and rash guard or compression top under the jacket, and compression shorts or spats under the pants. This provides coverage, protects skin from mat burn, and adds a hygiene layer.

How do I choose the right size?
Use the size chart measurements and compare to your height and weight. The sizes (F1-F4) are specifically proportioned for female bodies. If between sizes, size down for a fitted look or size up for more coverage. Consider potential shrinkage when deciding.

Does this gi come with a belt?
No, BJJ gis are sold without belts as standard practice. You wear the belt color that corresponds to your current rank. We sell BJJ belts separately in all colors and sizes.
