That was the inspiration for the design. But she's wearing a... well... it's a skin tight gi. But still. A gi, nonetheless!
It's really, really cool.Very high quality jits kimono, too.

I am not a fan of the designer gi thing... sorry. not something I am into.
like the old nose art of bombers... not on gi's.
but hay, its your gi, your style allows it.. cool. enjoy.
I just like the minimalist, KISS kinda approach. no patches or an association patch perhaps.. other wise keep it plain and clean.

No problem. I love it. Part of what I like about BJJ is that the culture is very much about what you like. While in an IBJJF tournament, you can only wear white, blue or black, outside of that it's pretty much anything goes, provided that the gi is clean and functional.
Outside of the design, the gi is very well made. The pants are sturdy with reinforced stress points and double thick from the knee down to the shin. The jacket is lined with a rash guard material that wicks sweat, and the entire gi is very light. Not the lightest around, but right in there. Overall, it's a great gi that I'd recommend... and they make them in white, blue or black as well.

actually more organizations are moving towards a standard "uniform" now.
Gracie Barra for example now has a requirement of a GB Gi. There are lots of reasons given, but I am sure that the recurring revenue is not among the least of them.

GB for sure, but what others?
I know that the GB guys around here all wear standard uniforms, but they're the only one. You're in SoCal, though. Right? You have a LOT more jiu jitsu in your area, so I'm sure you're more aware of the trends. Are some of the other big organizations moving to mandatory uniform designs?
We have the largest local tournament in the area coming up in a couple weeks. There will be over 300 competitors and they'll wear every color under the sun.
Love it! Wouldn't wear one in the setting where I train or teach, but I love it!

Sweet deal, I like it. The whole WW2 thing has always struck a cord with me for some reason. That's a great design!

http://www.tatamifightwear.com/product.php?id_product=147Steve what are the chances of getting a patch or a sticker of that graphic of the girl in the Gi? Even a digital file would be great. That's really cool. I love WWII planes in particular, hell I work with WWII planes.
That's the only place I know of. Sorry not much help.
