Introducing the eco-friendly Kids' Judo Uniform 100
To make learning judo easier, we've created a gi that meets all your needs: correct sleeve length, looseness at the shoulders, and a fitted waist so you can move with ease. And the bottoms? They are more durable at the knees for floor combat. And with the elasticated waistband, they're easy to put on!
Eco-design
We have conducted an eco-design process for this iconic product, which has reduced our environmental impact by over 10% through 2 actions:
- The use of recycled polyester in the fabric
- Re-designing the sizing
This has led to a shape that fits kids much better than before.
As a result, we've been able to use fewer raw materials while making a product that's even more suitable for judo.
Which size of gi should you get?
The right size depends on your child's height!
Our gis come in sizes from 100 to 150 cm. We recommend choosing one that's at least 5 cm bigger than your child's height, just in case of any growth spurts (kids generally grow 5 to 10 cm per year).
For example: if your child is 1.35m tall, choose a 140 cm gi.
Grammage and composition: what they mean
The thickness of the fabric is expressed in grams per square metre. This is called grammage. For judo, it's best to have a uniform in durable fabric that holds up during not only grips but in the wash as well!
That's why we chose a fabric in 65% cotton and 35% polyester: it holds up better to pulling and washing.
What about the fabric weight? At 190 g/m², your child will be incredibly comfortable as they learn!
Caring for your gi
We suggest airing out your uniform after every use. To keep them white, be sure to wash them regularly. One pointer? Wash on a cold wash for the first few times. After that, you can wash it in temperatures up to 30°C.
When you dry it, it's best to let it air dry and avoid using the dryer :)
