@@shamirsaborio9324 Yes, cleanliness is next to godliness. May see staph/MRSA infections otherwise. I suppose one could just use detergent, but not all are created equal. Persil is the best.

Turn your gi inside-out when washing; it protects the colour and will fade less over time.

I am a very sweaty person naturally. I have multiple gis so I can wash and hang them up to dry. I feel you on the females with make up thing. Love and respect to all the female martial artists out there, but I hate ending a class covered in mascara.
I wash my gis with distilled white vinegar and baking soda with a light amount of detergent because a lot of detergent actually makes your gi absorb sweat and bacteria and might smell worse then I just hang dry it after and my gis never smell bad.
Ryan, unless your detergent was running low, you need to loosen the cap on the top so it will come out faster and you don't spend all day trying to fill the machine.
Very good video. The best advice I can give to avoid smelly gis is to add 4 to 8 ounces of lavender Fabuloso with your washing detergent. Fabuloso is anti-bacterial and leaves my gis smelling freaking awesome.
I wash my gi in the wash all by it’s self with sun laundry detergent, dawn dish soap or palm olive with oxy, with. Scent booster I put all this in the wash fill the washer up with the water, and then put the gi in. Comes out fresh and clean every single time. I tumble dry on very low heat.

I put Oxi-Clean in an old cooler and let mine soak for a day or so. I started doing this with all my T-shirts a couple years ago because like the man said, as soon as my body warmed up even I couldn't stand the smell.

I used one gi for almost a year(2 hours a day, 5 days a week) and washed it after every use and it never stunk. Almost showered before hand and washed after
I don't get it. Just use detergent and water. Why would your gi still smell? WTF is wrong with you if it STILL smells after you wash it? Try downey it has a nice scent.

MA practice should never be a source of discomfort to anyone. Physically taxing? Yes. But a source of discomfort that makes it nauseating? No. If the problem persists, then don’t roll with that person until the problem is fixed.
I live in a barracks and lack the ability to hang clothes on a line. I stick my gi in the dryer with heat. I been told that they will shrink if you dry with heat, so I check them after about 20 minutes to see if they're dry.
If your gi is not preshrunk, it will DEFINITELY shrink in a dryer. Even if it IS “preshrunk,” it will STILL SHRINK in a dryer, albeit somewhat less. What I do is get a gi that is a “size up” in some way. For instance, I am a “big” A1, meaning that a brand new (unwashed) A1 fits me just right. When I wash it, it won’t fit me anymore. So, depending on the brand, I’ll buy an A1L, A1H, or A2, and then wash normally in cold water with a hot dryer and dry it all the way through, so it typically fits me well enough after the 3rd (or so) wash.
Plain soap and cold water always worked best for me. You can always bleach it, as well. For others, Oxi-clean in addition to your laundry detergent works well. Of course, if you train on dirty mats, you’ll have a heckuva time keeping your uniforms white. In which case, I would recommend wearing colored ones. Often times, when I am teaching at other schools, I’ll bring a blue or a black one. I don’t want to potentially embarrass the school Owner if his mats are less than tidy, nor do I want to risk staining a nice white gi.
I’ve got a method that works really well. Wash you white GIs with OxyClean Whitening in Hot Water. Every so often use Mrs Stewart’s liquid bluing. Here’s where you gotta be really careful. Start the wash with hot water and the oxyclean and detergent. Add 1/4 teaspoon (like 4-5 DROPS) to 1 QT of water (an empty Gatorade bottle works good). Cap the bottle and shake it up. Slowly add the diluted bluing to the wash. If you have a front loader you can pull out the soap tray and dribble it down into the drain hole to add it to the wash.
Just train with it as often as you can. The movement and just the overall wearing of the garments will losses it and mold to your shape. I know this is late but in case anyone with the same question reads this.
Kama Jiu-Jitsu got it thank you. Btw it was a serious question. Thanks for the quick reply. My first 1 shrunk 6 inches all around and turns into shorts when I open my guard. Looks ridiculous so now I’m being extra careful
Elijah Eternity yes. 2 cups of white vinegar and the hottest temp and it will get rid of all that mildewy funky smell that won’t die - no laundry detergent. Then run a normal cycle.
Andrew Kim try a nylon bristle brush and bar of Fels Naptha. Get the collar slightly damp and rub the Fels Naptha into the stain and agitate it with the brush.
Been experimenting with dryel cleaning it works great on my suits and robes so thought I'd try cleaning my gi that way its worked great so far and eliminates any excess shrinking . Looks clean and smells fresh and new . I'll update in couple months cuz these are still fairly new gi's lol
@@jacobr0sas_62 I have discontinued the practice lol . It works well if u have a light class or just doing drilling etc but it the dryel is not really cheap so that sucks too. I have a lot of gis like a lot lol so reg Coldwater wash and dry on low is best practice imo there's great companies whose gis don't shrink and the ones that do u can kinda figure out a system to shrink what ya need etc
Have you tried Charlie's Soap? It works really well getting rid of the bad odors. Almost threw away my favorite rash guard due to smell of heating up when rolling
Thanks for the video. What gi brand would you recommend for larger guys? I'm 6'0 tall and weigh about 315. I want to start taking lessons and most sizing charts online don't go that high.
tankdogg7233 I don't know about Gi's your size. I do want to say is don't get caught up in buying expensive GI's (name brands). BJJ is expensive enough as is. I have GI's that I've purchased off of Amazon for $60-70 and they hold up well. Most expensive GI I have is a Combat corner 2.0 which cost around $90. Just buy the biggest size or perhaps look at a Judo Gi.
I would recommend the Fuji all around in a6. It runs a little big on me at 6'3 and 300 lbs and even when I washed it a lot and shrunk it down, it still fit great. It's a tank, and very well built for 100 bucks.
Never too late. we just got a guy who signed up a wile back and he’s 60. He’s now a good friend who comes to all our functions. You just have to find a good gym 👍
What do you think of people that wear socks? We had a guy that did, he was very clean and I'd actually rather roll with someone that had on jj socks. I hate feet hahaha. Some people joked about it but your thoughts.
Ben Bates In my experience, whenever I've had only one gi, i wash it every time i use it. Preferably, work on getting one or two more when you are able to.
I just started and was told by multiple black and brown belts that if I'm going to compete it is bad juju to wash the belt. May you pls share your thoughts on this.
Superstition. Yeah, keep your body and your gi clean, but let your belt have staph, bacteria, and other crap on it, right? I wash mine. But that’s me. Many don’t.
McCoy87 it works fantastic. Best solution for funky towels too. Run the clothing with 2 cups of white vinegar with no detergent and run it on hot with extra rinse. Then re run with detergent.
Use 2 cups of baking soda and 4 cups of white vinegar and it will fizzle up but run with no soap. Then run a second cycle with your normal soap and softener. I've used this for years on musty towels and it works every time. Good luck!
There's probably no advice for this. But my BJJ school requires that students only wear gear with their school's brand to class. So I have ONE gi that I bought from them. Their gis aren't crazy expensive, but they're not cheap either. I don't have the money to buy 5 of them at their price point to have new gis every time I need one. So I have to just wash this one to death.
A little late, but there are gis you can get that are pretty plain. Then you can have a patch sewn on by a tailor for cheap. The school should allow this. Unless they only allow you to buy gis from them, but I've never heard of that. I would bring it up to your instructor saying you need more gis but it's not easy for you to afford their's. Been advancing in rank these past 2 years?
Jesus Jones,I know what my Sensei meant! And because of that I do wash my belt,but I do it manually! I kind of wash it dry,anyway it’s clean and no germs
@@gibbacool2009 yep. Good choice bro. I recommend watering down some disinfectant in a basin and then just let it soak for a little bit. Don't need to scrub it or even shake it.

Any tips for getting stains out of a white go collar?
Andrew Kim try a nylon bristle brush and bar of Fels Naptha. Get the collar slightly damp and rub the Fels Naptha into the stain and agitate it with the brush.
I think I recall hearing that fabric softener ends up reducing the amount of water your clothing can absorb and to use it sparingly.
some of them, Downy, especially. the Kirkland one doesn't seem to affect that as much.
Fabric softener clogs up the fibers in the fabric and keeps it from breathing.
Epsom salt can be used as an alternative.
