Description
Unmatched Japanese Quality — The Modern Classic
TL;DR: The Isami Classic BJJ Gi is the ultimate Japanese BJJ gi—now upgraded with a modern lightweight single weave that’s stronger, softer, and faster-drying than ever. This is the new generation of the Classic Gi, made in Japan and exclusively available at ChokeSports. Order yours today and experience the legacy.
Note: The 100% cotton double weave model has been discontinued. We’re now focused on the new single weave polyblend that’s praised by advanced practitioners worldwide for its perfect balance of comfort, performance, and durability.
Made in Japan craftsmanship – Meticulously handcrafted by expert seamstresses for elite quality
Exclusive to ChokeSports – The official international distributor for Isami BJJ Gis
The Isami Classic BJJ Gi has evolved into a modern performance gi while honoring its traditional roots. The new single weave fabric is softer, lighter, and more breathable, making it perfect for everyday training and IBJJF competition. Advanced grapplers appreciate how it balances flexibility and structure, allowing effortless movement during intense rolls.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ William P. from USA “Rolls Royce of Gis. You can tell the craftsmanship is top notch. Very durable but not too heavy. This Gi is also lighter than I thought it would be, surprisingly comfortable and cut competition style. I bought 2 more. Very happy.”
Soft yet strong – Rolls like a dream, comfortable yet built to last
Refined fit – Traditional Japanese cut, tailored for high-level movement
Competition ready – IBJJF-legal with a sharp, minimal look that performs as good as it feels
For nearly 20 years, ChokeSports has been the official international distributor of Isami BJJ Gis, delivering the best in Japanese craftsmanship to fighters worldwide. If you’re serious about BJJ and want a gi that blends tradition, comfort, and performance, this is the one. Train harder. Look sharper. Own a piece of Japanese excellence.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Carlos L. from Philippines “It’s durable to last you for years and it’s soft/light enough for you to roll in both practice and competition. Overall the Japanese don’t F around when it comes to making quality products and this is the best Gi I’ve ever used. I recommend it for anyone serious about the BJJ lifestyle.”
📏 Perfect Fitting Gi
The Isami Classic BJJ Gi comes in standard Brazilian sizes A0–A4. Follow our detailed size chart to find your perfect fit. This gi is not pre-shrunk, but the size chart shows post-wash measurements so you know exactly what to expect. Originally designed with a broader cut, our collaboration with Isami refined it to an IBJJF-approved competition fit that minimizes excess fabric while maximizing mobility and performance.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bruno M. from USA “This gi is so awesome. After many years thinking about getting an Isami and a black gi, I finally got both in one package. Soooo soft. Perfect size (A2). I had pretty much all the gi brands but this one is on another level.”
🧼 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.
