How Many BJJ Gis Should I Own? A Guide to BJJ Gear Essentials

13 Oct 2024

For Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) practitioners, owning a BJJ gi is a necessity for both training and competition. But a common question arises among both beginners and seasoned athletes: “How many BJJ gis should I own?” The answer can depend on several factors, including your training frequency, competition schedule, and personal preferences. In this article, we’ll explore all the aspects related to the number of BJJ gis you should own. Thus providing insight into how to make the best decision for your needs.

At Novakik BJJ, we offer a wide selection of high-quality BJJ gis. Hence, ensuring that every practitioner can find the perfect fit, whether you need one gi or multiple options for a full training rotation.

Factors to Consider When Deciding How Many BJJ Gis You Should Own

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to how many BJJ gis you should have. The ideal number depends on your individual training habits and goals. Here are some factors to consider when determining the right number of BJJ gis to add to your collection:

  1. Training Frequency

Your weekly training schedule is one of the most important factors when deciding how many gis to own. If you're training 1-2 times per week, owning one or two gis might be sufficient. However, for practitioners training multiple times a week (3-5 times or more), having at least three or more gis is highly recommended. This will help to avoid the hassle of constant washing and drying between sessions.

  • Casual Practitioner (1-2 times per week): One or two gis should suffice. You can rotate between the two. Thus allowing for enough time to wash and dry them between sessions.
  • Serious Practitioner (3-5 times per week): You’ll likely need three to four gis in rotation. Thus ensuring you always have a clean gi available for training.
  • Competitive Athlete (5+ times per week): Competitive athletes often train every day and may even train multiple times a day. For serious competitors, owning five or more gis allows for better convenience and durability. Especially if they are training in both Gi and No-Gi.
  1. Durability and Wear

Another key factor is the durability of your gis. High-quality gis tend to last longer, even with frequent use. However, constant wear and tear from daily training can shorten the lifespan of your gi. Especially if you’re using the same gi day after day. Owning multiple BJJ gis helps extend the lifespan of each one by reducing the amount of wear and washing per gi.

At Novakik BJJ, we offer a variety of durable BJJ gis made from high-quality fabrics like 450-550 GSM pearl weave. These are designed to withstand heavy training sessions without tearing or losing shape. By rotating multiple high-quality gis, you can ensure that they last longer. Moreover, in this way they maintain their structural integrity.

  1. Time for Washing and Drying

The time it takes to wash and dry a gi is another important consideration. After an intense BJJ session, your gi will likely be soaked with sweat. Thus requiring a thorough wash. If you only own one gi and you’re training multiple times a week, you may struggle to wash, dry, and have it ready for the next session in time. This is especially true if your gi is made from a heavier material, which takes longer to dry.

Having a few gis in rotation allows you to properly clean and dry each one without rushing the process. Moreover, it ensures hygiene and avoids bad odors or potential bacterial growth.

  1. Competition Gis

If you plan to compete in BJJ tournaments, it’s often a good idea to have separate competition gis that are different from your everyday training gis. Competition gis are usually lighter and more tailored to provide a snug, IBJJF-compliant fit. Having one or two dedicated competition gis ensures they remain in optimal condition. So, they don’t wear out as quickly as your training gis.

Many athletes prefer to keep their competition gis pristine. They avoid using them in everyday practice, which could lead to faster wear and tear. Therefore, if you’re regularly competing, you may want to have a few training gis and a separate competition gi for tournaments.

  1. Climate and Seasonal Considerations

If you live in a region with extreme seasonal weather, you may want to have both lightweight and heavyweight BJJ gis. For example, in the summer, a lightweight gi (around 350-450 GSM) is ideal for breathability and comfort. In colder months, a heavier gi (around 550 GSM) can offer more warmth.

Owning a few lightweight gis for hot weather and a couple of heavier gis for colder temperatures allows you to adapt to the climate while still training comfortably.

  1. Personal Style and Preferences

Finally, many practitioners simply enjoy owning multiple gis in different colors or designs. This expresses their personal style. Some prefer a classic white gi. While others might enjoy bold colors like black, blue, or even custom designs. Having a few gis in your collection allows for variety. Moreover, it adds a sense of personal flair to your training gear.
