[@jiujitsujunction]

Thanks for the comment!

[@vivialdo3087]

My old school only recommends white gi, because he has white mats

[@jiujitsujunction]

That mat color consideration definitely makes a lot of sense, thanks for sharing that I hadn’t thought about that before

[@vivialdo3087]

@@jiujitsujunction but he had his old martial art school you could wear any color gi, due to the mats being red and black

[@nutboy2676]

I wanna get a black one so I feel like a ninja lol.

[@jiujitsujunction]

Felt like a ninja when I got mine lol

[@tomsheppard378]

I got a black gi, because it was cheap and I could wash with my other coloured clothes. I have a white gi for judo but is a pain because I dont have many white clothes

[@jiujitsujunction]

I love my black gi, it’s way more versatile for washing like you said, I do the same thing. Thanks for watching!

[@amoghtare3780]

Uhm is it ok if we choose to have two gi of different colours instead of only having one?

[@jiujitsujunction]

You can have any many his as you like, I own 3 personally, thanks for the comment

[@travisjones1481]

I got a blue one, because I like blue 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@jiujitsujunction]

That’s why I bought my blue one too haha.
Thanks for watching!

Clothing doesn't show your rank in BJJ... Unless you're a purple belt, then you need purple rashguard, purple tape, purple earmuffs - otherwise the world won't know that youy're a purple belt.

[@jiujitsujunction]

Purple belt is the belt for getting all the swag haha

[@perrinayebarra]

Doesn’t a white gi immediately get blood stained?

[@jiujitsujunction]

White gis do tend to be harder to keep clean - blood can be rinsed out with cold water and stain treated before washing. Blood getting on your gi isn’t all that common in my experience though

[@govamichael]

If ur getting blood on your grappling Gi, your doing something very very wrong
