Description
The Isami Tora BJJ Gi: Japanese Precision, Built for the Mats
ChokeSports.com is the official international distributor of Isami — your direct source for authentic Japanese BJJ gis. The Isami Tora BJJ Gi combines iconic Japanese design with modern single weave performance (65% polyester / 35% cotton). Handcrafted in Japan with reinforced seams, a no-back-seam jacket, and an IBJJF-legal cut, this is a gi built by people who understand what happens on the mats. Order yours today and train in something worth wearing.
Exclusive Drop: Cotton Double Weave Tora (ChokeSports Only)
The cotton double weave Tora is back — and you won't find it anywhere else.
ChokeSports negotiated directly with Isami to bring back the 100% cotton double weave jacket for the Tora line. This version is no longer available in Japan or through any other retailer. It's a ChokeSports-exclusive, produced in small batches only while the original cotton fabric stock holds out.
Jacket: 100% cotton double weave — heavier, structured, traditional feel
Available in White and Blue only — Black cotton fabric is no longer in production
Stock runs approximately 1–2 sets per size, A0–A4 per batch. ChokeSports will continue making these available in small runs, but once the fabric supply is exhausted, this version is gone for good. If the cotton double weave is what brought you here, move on it.
Single Weave Tora: The Daily Driver for Serious Grapplers
No back seam — full range of motion, nothing pulling where it shouldn't
Lightweight and fast-drying — stays manageable through back-to-back sessions
IBJJF-legal competition cut — minimal excess fabric, maximum edge on the mats
Size A0 through A4. Not pre-shrunk — the size chart shows post-wash measurements so you know exactly what you're getting. As Isami specialists and official international distributors, ChokeSports.com guarantees you're getting the real thing — the same gi trusted by serious practitioners across decades, now available in the version that suits how you train. Whether you go single weave or lock in a cotton double weave set, the Tora delivers.
Sizing the Isami Tora BJJ Gi
The Isami Tora 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 our chart lists post-wash measurements so you know exactly what to expect. Designed with a refined, competition-approved fit, the Tora Gi minimizes excess fabric and maximizes your edge on the mats.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Edward from USA "Every detail about this kimono is top notch. Fit, quality, material—all excellent. Many brands focus on the jacket, but Isami perfects both the jacket and pants. Buy with confidence."
🧼 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.
