How to wash your Jiu Jitsu kimono

  • January 9, 2023

Here are the best ways to wash a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) kimono, also known as a gi:

  1. Pre-wash: Before washing the gi, check for any stains or areas that may require extra attention. Use a stain remover or pre-treatment to target these areas.
  2. Use cold water: Use cold water to wash the gi. Hot water can shrink or damage the fabric, and also can cause the colours to fade.
  3. Use mild detergent: Use a mild, pH-neutral detergent that is free of bleach, fabric softeners, and other harsh chemicals.
  4. Wash separately: To avoid snagging or damaging the gi, it is best to wash it separately from other clothing.
  5. Hang dry: Once the gi is washed, hang it to dry. Do not put it in the dryer, as high heat can shrink or damage the fabric.
  6. Iron if needed: If desired, you can press the gi with a warm iron to remove wrinkles and restore crispness, but keep in mind that high heat can also damage the fabric, specially if the gi is made of cotton.
  7. Keep it clean: wash your gi regularly and before each competition to maintain the kimono clean and hygienic.
  8. Keep it folded: Fold your gi properly when storing it, and keep it in a cool and dry place.
  9. Avoid using fabric softeners: fabric softeners can damage the fabric and reduce the grip of the kimono making it more slippery to grip.
