Single weave Sashiko fabric – lightweight and fast-drying
35% cotton / 65% polyester for durability and shape retention
Made in Japan craftsmanship with meticulous construction
The fabric has been upgraded for improved comfort and a softer hand feel. It dries faster and holds its structure through hard training cycles. Reinforced stitching ensures reliability during grip-heavy rounds. This bjj gi jacket is built for experienced practitioners who train consistently.
Classic Design. Flexible Sizing.
Sizes: A0, A1, A2, A3, A4
Colors: White, Black, Blue, Navy
Sold as jacket only (pants not included)
The design stays clean with subtle embroidered Isami logos on both sleeves and classic woven labels. The collar maintains structure while staying comfortable around the neck. Shrinkage rate: approximately 2.9% lengthwise and 2.3% widthwise. Order through ChokeSports — your trusted global source for Isami BJJ Gi products.
🧼 Washing & Shrinkage
Expect Some Shrinkage: Your gi isn't pre-shrunk. It may look a bit large at first, but will adjust to the perfect size after 2-3 washes.
Washing Instructions: Wash at a maximum of 40°C. Avoid bleach to protect the fabric's integrity. Dry cleaning is safe.
👕 Drying
Hang Dry Method: Use separate hangers for the top and pants. Dry in the shade to maintain its shape.
Tumble Dry Caution: If using a tumble dryer, stop at 80% dryness to prevent excessive shrinkage. Then, hang it to finish drying.
🩸 Stain Management & Rotation
Quick Action for Stains: Wash immediately after practice if stained, especially with blood, to avoid permanent marks.
Rotation Strategy: Like many of our customers who train frequently, consider rotating multiple gis. This ensures a fresh gi for each session and extends the life of each one.

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 9 reviews.
Fantastic gi. Few things about this gi that was not expectedSoft - VERY soft, hands down the softest gi i've purchased, let's see how it holds over washesCollar - not as wide as i expected, regular width but not squishySleeve width- wider than your usual Jiu Jitsu cut gi, if you do not like to give away grips or using this for comp - not recommended. I like Ezekiels so this will be perfect!Weight - not heavy at all as i thought it would be, pretty sure this was marketed as a double weave . Can someone correct me if a double weave should translate to a heavier gi? This might be my lack of knowledge Sleeve length - 3-4 inches longer than advertised on the table BUT they did say after washes it will get down to the length in the size chart - so this is perfect!Overall - 9/10 - would love bit more weight but that's a personal preference

G’day Alan,Thanks for the thorough review and awesome photos of your new Isami BJJ Gi Jacket—looks fantastic on you!We really appreciate your detailed breakdown. You nailed some key points: the ultra-soft feel, slightly wider sleeves, and the smart note on sleeve shrinkage. You're absolutely right—this gi is technically a double weave, but Isami uses a more refined cotton that keeps it lighter than traditional heavyweights. Perfect for those Ezekiels, as you mentioned!Thanks again for being a loyal customer from Australia. It means a lot, and we’re always here to help with your next gear upgrade.Best regards,The ChokeSports Team
BJJ Double weave jacket. As always another superior Isami product provided by Choke Sports.I bought an Isami BJJ gi In 2009 in Japan. I still have this gi and although showing wear and tear it is still strong.These gi’s are the strongest and most durable that I know of. Thank you for a quality product
Double-weave sashiko jacket. This is the nicest gi jacket I've ever owned, offering a good balance of durability, lightness, and softness that lasts even through hang drying. The sleeves run a little small, so if you're on size border, you are probably better off getting the size up.
Great gi / excellent service. My gi came really fast coming all the way from Japan. The gi is all I expected it to be , tough yet comfortable. The update emails from Conner were great , definitely will do business with Chokesports for all my MA equipment needs and recommend them to others . Dan
Extremely well-made. Ready-to-wear design and material. I love that it required no pre-shrinking or washing. Clean style, minimal graphics, just legit.

First time i buy a mix fabric, i only had the double weave, and i was amazed of how soft and nice this jacket feels. For sunny day works is gonna be perfect, i liked a lot.

Hola Oscar,Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the Isami Classic BJJ Gi Jacket — and for being a returning ChokeSports customer. That means a lot to us!It's great to hear that the mix fabric totally won you over. Going from double weave to a lighter, softer construction is a real game-changer, especially when you're training in warmer weather. Isami really nails that balance between quality and comfort, and we're glad it came through the moment you put it on.If you have a moment, we'd love to see a photo of your new gi — whether it's a close-up of the fabric or a shot of you on the mats. Feel free to share it here or post on social media with #chokesports!See you on the next roll, Oscar. Best regards,The ChokeSports Team
Soft, comfortable, feels durable, and doesn't feel too stiff like some other Gis. The jacket size leaves enough leeway for shrinkage when washed.
