Wash Instructions
-
Separate Colors - Wash your Jiu-Jitsu gi separately from other clothing, especially during the first few washes, to prevent color bleeding.
-
Cold Water - Use cold water for washing to help preserve the colour and prevent shrinkage.
-
Gentle Cycle - Use a gentle cycle on your washing machine to avoid excessive wear and tear on the fabric.
-
Mild Detergent - Use a mild detergent to clean your gi. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can damage the fabric and affect its performance.
-
Inside Out - Turn the gi inside out before washing to help protect the outer layer and maintain its appearance.
Drying Instructions
-
Air Dry - Air drying is the best option for your Jiu-Jitsu gi. Hang it on a clothesline or a hanger to dry naturally.
-
Avoid Direct Sunlight - If drying outdoors, avoid direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent fading.
-
Shrinkage Prevention - If you're concerned about shrinkage, consider allowing the gi to air dry until it's slightly damp and then finish drying it in a low-heat dryer for a short time.
General Care Tips
-
If your gi has patches or embroidery, turn it inside out before washing to protect these details.
-
Regularly inspect your gi for any signs of wear, loose threads, or damage. Repair any issues promptly to prevent further damage.
-
If you train frequently, it's a good idea to have multiple gis to rotate between sessions. This allows each gi to air out and reduces the frequency of washing.
-
Fabric softeners can affect the absorbency of the fabric, so it's best to avoid using them.
