My Favourite BJJ Pictionary - Name The BJJ Term

New BJJ Gi Shop Update

We are a BJJ Gi UK based web store that aims to provide the best jiu jitsu gi to the growing UK Brazilian Jiu Jitsu community. Essential we have a BJJ gi sale every day!

As we are web based we can keep our over heads low so we can delivery premier brazilian jiu jitsu gis at the lowest possible price and include free delivery. We hope this helps Jiu Jitsu players satisfies the little robot voice in their heads that say "Buy BJJ gi!" or "Buy jiu jitsu gi!"

We are very proud to be official suppliers of the following Gis:

Tatami fightwear (makers of the famous Zero G lightweight BJJ gi)
Gamesness (premier jiu jitsu gi kimono company)
Evolution (UK based gi for jiu jitsu company)
Storm (often referred o as the 'best BJJ gi'
Grab and Pull (a leading Brazilian jiu jitsu gi uk brand)

If you are more interested in a jiu jitsu kimono in a specific colour we have categorised our store by colour too e.g. black BJJ gi or blue BJJ gi.

Whilst looking for a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Gi you may search using the following terms :

If you are looking for any of these we can help

But the bottom line is, if you are training more than twice a week you need extra gis. If it better for your team mates if you are wearing a clean gi at every session. In the winter it can be tough to get them clean!

If you need a gi that is made by another manufacturer contact us and we may be able to approach them and set up a relationship with them that will result in us being able to supply it to your for a discounted rate.

Of course, when you are buying a gi, you may also need a BJJ belt. BJJ belts are purchased less frequently, however you will definitely need a BJJ white belt to start, and then if you progress quickly a BJJ blue belt.

So if  you are looking for a cheap jiu jitsu gi please feel free to check out our gis (my favourites is the Gamesness black jiu jitsu gi), and if you have any questions contact us.

Thanks.

PS If you are ever in Hertfordshire, you are more than welcome to come a roll and train at one of our BJJ classes.
