Jiu Jitsu Gi Size Chart

Gold BJJ Gi Size Chart

This size chart is for unisex sizes (A0 to A5) for all of our gis. We also offer our gis in womens' and kids' cuts.

You might find that your frame is suitable for multiple sizes - gi sizing is a matter of personal taste. If you like a tighter, more slim fitting cut you should err toward the smaller size. If you prefer extra room in your gi you can choose the larger size in your range.

While we use pre-shrunk fabric in all of our gis, you can still expect some shrinkage (especially if you're washing in hot water, or tumble drying). A good rule of thumb is heavier weight gis (like our Valiant or Calavera) will shrink more than lighter weight gis (like our Aeroweave). For more information on gi shrinkage, check out this video.

Not sure if you're choosing the right size? We get it, gi sizing can be tricky. That's why we offer totally free pre-paid returns.

The Man in the Arena

Made for competitors (but a great gi for everyone), the Valiant Gi was designed with input from Gold BJJ's actively competing athletes.

Features include:

  • Ultra comfy rash guard neck liner, highlighting Teddy Roosevelt's inspiring "Man in the Arena" speech.
  • Heavyweight jacket and pants for easy grip breaking.
  • Super clean white-on white or black-on-black aesthetic.

Built for Competition

The Valiant Gi is perfect for competitors looking for a heavier, harder to grip gi.

We designed this gi with an extra thick 550gsm Pearl Weave jacket, and heavy duty 12oz ripstop pants.

IBJJF Compliant

The Valiant Gi has been carefully made to comply with all IBJJF competition regulations.

While this gi was constructed with competition in mind, it's an excellent every day gi - especially in colder climates and seasons.

Please note that our gis do not include belts.

We proudly back all of our products by the Gold BJJ Guarantee.

If for any reason you're not thrilled with your purchase, we'll replace or refund your order no-questions-asked.

    Best Gi by far

    This Gi is quality and will last. Compared to my others this one is a tank. Fit a little large but can shrink. I love it.

    Decent heavy weight gi

    I love the “man in the arena” poem inside the jacket. Getting thrashed is no problem in this jacket. The pants are a boxy, stiff fit, even after washing it weekly. I still like Gold BJJ for my journey needs!

    A great gi

    I think the Valiant gi is a great gi. I prefer the heavy weight gi’s. This thing is definitely heavy! It’s Like wearing a suit of armor. The only very small negative on this gi (if you would even consider this a negative) is my training partners have mention the difficulty of getting grips on both the top and pants and that the weave is brutal on there face. I would agree this top is not soft and feels like sandpaper. But I like the gi. Also I wanted to mention and give kudos to Gold bjj for giving veteran and first responder discounts. Their discount is the best in the industry that I have seen. Thank you Gold
