Progress Jiu Jitsu Academy Gi | Lightweight BJJ Gi with Free White Belt | BJJ Kimono for Men & Women | Tear-Resistant Jiu Jitsu Kimono for Training & Competition | Women's & Men's Kimono

I've just stared BJJ and have now been well immersed in the world of Gi purchasing for newbies. Its a bit tricky to try and figure out what size you are and so for context, I am a male - 6'1" tall, I weigh 14.5 Stone and I would describe my physique as fairly toned under a small layer of flab...mostly around the tummy. Ultimately, I chose size A3 and tried a few brands. I didn't like the Tatami Competition Gi so much, so I tried the Progress Academy Gi. When it arrived I was really happy as it did come with the white belt as advertised and the fit is pretty much spot on. I wore it to class unwashed and it was fine and I've just washed it for the first time and I would say that it has shrunk a little bit but no more than expected. The top is quite thick and durable but the trousers are quite light - I like this blend especially in the summer. I think I will see how this holds up over the next few washes and will probably buy another one in a different colour for a bit of variety. In all in all I would recommend this Gi. Update: A few washes in now and the trousers have shrunk in length by a good inch or so which is fine if you like the look (i do). The only think i don't like is how rough the Gi top is, I will try and wash with vinegar to soften it up but it is a bit rough. I have also found the colour from the mats we roll on has rubbed onto the knees of the trousers , not sure if that will come out... I have since tried a Tatami the Original gi which is also nice - the perfect Gi for me would be the Tatami top and the Progress bottoms! Update 2: all the mat stains came out no problem. The top is still pretty rough though. In retrospect I still think the gi is good but compared to some recent Tatami offers though (£39 for the ‘original’ gi) it now seems expensive which might be unfair but the Tatami gi’s also have more appointments like nice embroidery and patches etc. I would buy another Progress Academy gi because I like the trousers, but only if they were on offer.

Great quality as always!

Great project, very good price too.

Good quality light weight gi however it is fairly thin so make sure it is not too tight on you as can be prone to rips

As described, good product and quality

Very comfy and resistant

Good material

Firstly I would like to say this Gi, is super stylish and the fit was really good, when I got and tried it on. That’s why it has 2 stars instead of 1 stars. This is my first Gi, I only wore it once and hand washed it with cold water and all the threading is coming a part. I would not recommend this Gi to anyone, it should not be falling apart after one wash.

Ich habe A2 bestellt. Die Hose passt erwartungsgemäß, jedoch fällt die Jacke sehr groß aus. Ich hoffe, dass sie sich noch kleiner waschen lässt

Calidad premium, producto original Muy recomendable

Sehr gut geeignet für BJJ. Leicht, reißfest und bequem. Preisleistung passt.

Excelente…mido 1,65 y peso 85 …tengan en cuenta que enconje considerablemente

Worth the price. True to size. Appears to be tough despite being super light. This is my 1st lightweigh gi, hence, is currently my favorite. Trained in it 3x and washed 4x. No shrinkage noticed so far. Will buy again once A0 black becomes available.
