STORM Judo Rashguard, Compression Top for Under the Judogi Long Sleeve

The STORM judo rashguard is a long sleeve compression top made to live under the judogi: a black base broken up with white and grey brush strokes, with AUN Sports branding on the chest and down the spine. The design is sublimated, so the dye sits inside the fibres rather than on top and will not crack, peel or fade.

Why wear a rashguard under your judogi?

Because the jacket is the problem. A judogi is heavy, stiff cotton, and every broken grip drags that weave across your forearms. A long sleeve base layer puts a smooth surface between your skin and the jacket, which is why judoka reach for one during high-volume gripping and randori. It also wicks sweat away instead of letting a cotton jacket hold it against you.

• Full-length sleeves against forearm friction from heavy gi cotton.

• 88% polyester, 12% spandex compression knit, around 220 GSM.

• Flat, non-bulky build that will not bunch under the jacket when gripped.

• Fully sublimated STORM design that will not crack, peel or fade.

Specs

Is it legal for IJF competition?

No, and it is worth being clear about that. Under IJF contest rules women wear a plain white or off-white t-shirt or body suit under the jacket, and men wear the judogi against the skin. This is training and randori wear. Check the current IJF rule set for your competition before you pack it.

Who is it for?

Made for judoka who train often enough that gripping has cost them skin, and for clubs kitting out a squad in one design. It also doubles as a no-gi and newaza top, so it earns its place for anyone who trains both standing and on the ground.

How do I care for it?
