Details

Some grapplers want a gi they can grip into the ground for a decade. The Heavyweight in white is that gi: a 550 GSM pearl weave with the dense, planted feel of a traditional kimono and the longevity to match.

What does 550 GSM feel like on the mat?

Substantial. The heavyweight pearl weave (a tight cotton weave at 550 grams per square metre) sits heavier on the shoulders and gives a thick, hard-to-control collar your training partners will feel. White keeps the classic look while the weave does the heavy lifting.

Who is it for?

For the grappler who values durability and a heavy, old-school drape over featherweight speed. It rewards hard daily training and cooler gyms.

Care: cold wash, hang fully and allow extra drying time given the dense weave. Skip the dryer to protect the cotton.

Frequently Asked Questions

How heavy is this gi?
The jacket is a 550 GSM heavyweight pearl weave, noticeably denser than a standard 450 GSM competition gi. You feel the difference the moment you put it on: thicker collar, more substantial cloth, a traditional heavy feel.
Why choose a heavyweight gi?
Durability and feel. The dense 550 GSM weave shrugs off years of hard grips and lapel work, and many grapplers simply prefer the solid, classic drape of a heavy gi over a thin tournament cut.
Is the heavyweight gi IBJJF legal?
In white, blue, and black it uses IBJJF-approved colours and A0 to A5 sizing. Note that some events cap gi weight or run tighter checks, so confirm your specific tournament rules; the heavy weave is best suited to training and durability-focused athletes.
Will a 550 GSM gi take longer to dry?
Yes. A denser weave holds more water, so hang it fully and allow extra drying time. That same density is what makes it last, so the trade-off favours longevity.
Is it too hot for everyday training?
It runs warmer than a lightweight gi. If you train in a hot room or cut weight often, a lighter weave suits better. For cooler gyms and grapplers who like a substantial gi, the heavyweight is ideal.
