Every sport has a uniform, and Brazilian Jiujitsu is no different.
Some schools call for a "kimono", but for me, that the wizards of the image of the geisha are. My preference is to call it, what we have increasingly in judo has called a "GI". What we call, but you may have had a decent job, because you save money and long-term problems.
Some people use a karate-gi, for its first class of Brazilian Jiujitsu. This could be good for you, for the first time, but I bet they do not harbor the same place when you connect to your second class. The narrow neck, it is much easier for your opponent smothering him, and it's a bit like a clash with piano wire around his neck obstruction (i.e., it hurts)! The ease of construction of a style of karate-gi, as soon as will tear apart, and grabbing all grips fighting in Brazilian Jiujitsu.
Brazilian Jiujitsu for a gi is generally difficult to cotton fabric with a sustainable fashion, for all the training stresses. You meet and build single and double fabric 'of construction. Gi weave an easier, cooler, but less long-lived. Double armor gi’s are thick, hot and difficult. It is also difficult for an opponent to a good control over material for a double thickness of armor gi, which is why most people compete in two tissues.
Several manufacturers also offer fabrics goals thickness somewhere between a single and a double room. The construction of geographic information systems, cotton synthetic mixtures. And, of course, all claims that the best combination of weight, conservation and comfort.
One possibility is to create a cheap armor Judo-gi perhaps $ 50 to $ 70 is much better than nothing, but there are still two problems. First, lightweight Judo gi probably a thin neck, and that means you're going to gag more often. Judo also requires a flexible and not as Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, which means that you have with your opponent to deal better with you. If you are strapped for cash, but may be the best option (for now).
Personally, I think it is important to at least some kind of training will be, because you get 95% of all situations of self-defense...A gi is specially designed for Brazilian Jiujitsu usually closer and a tightening of mounting sleeves as a setback for the judo gi. Some manufacturers go too far and produce geographic information systems feels good in your body, but too close Brazilian Jiujitsu competition. If you want to join a competition, and then make sure what are the gi competition rules.
One final point, how to wash and dry the gi. Unless they are employed, most of the gis is to cut a few centimeters in the arms and legs, if you wash them in hot or dry in a hot dryer. I do not bother to dry my gi separately, so you can buy a gi, a few centimeters long in the arm and the first Pant. As I have always wash (hot) and dried, shrinks a bit and ends in general, gives me a great facility.
At one point, you want both held, so that you can use, while the other is drying.
Years, could gi Brazilian Jiujitsu one of each color in the time since it was white. Times have changed, and now you can see, blue, black, red, green, pink, and even (for women) gi’s in the market. Some competitions do not allow anything more than white, blue or black, believes that before the purchase, which gi camouflage, especially if it is the only one who can afford!
Some prefer plain white gi without decoration. Some schools require you to fix the school, especially if they compete. Brazilian Jiujitsu other professionals to take the thing to fix, a whole new level, will be provided with ornamental patches that resemble racing cars in Formula One is just a part of free speech in Brazilian Jiujitsu possible.
Finally, let me say that, even if your interest is in confrontation or the presentation of MMA you may want to be a gi. Personally, I think it is important to at least some kind of training will be, because you get 95% of all situations of self-defense. If you have a walk from the fighting in spandex shorts, then most of the attackers are probably to avoid attack...
