Is there a difference between a Jujitsu uniform and a Judo uniform?

My son will take Jujitsu, and need to get a uniform. But, it is hard to find one online. Is a Judo uniform the same thing?|||The collar is one difference, at least in BJJ.


A (BJ)JJ Gi is more durable, since you grab not only the jacket in (B)JJ. Or maybe my Judo Gi sucked in quality. :P


A Judo Gi is pretty much the same. Won%26#039;t matter much now in the start, and they%26#039;re usually a lot cheaper.


They are more common to find, too.


They feel a bit thicker on the top, though. Cause they need to resist the grappling.I found it hard to move on the ground with my Gi.


Competitions allow only (B)JJ Gi%26#039;s, though.


I ordered mine from my instructor and it feels great, so i recommend you speaking with your instructor, but your son have to take his time and feel if JJ is really his style before you put money on more stuff.|||sure


i have been doing judo and jiu jitsu for years. they are basically the same thing, withsubtlee differences.


1. karate uniforms are thinner, they allow for for freeer movement, but are too flimsy for grappling. if you tried to do judo or jiu jitsu in a karate uniform, it will be torn after a few throws.





now we go to jiuKitsu


the important points are if you son is taking japanese or brazilian jiu jitsu.





ufc fighters all train in bjj


the main differencee betweejudodo and jiu jitsu, and bjj kimonos is the brand.





when i walked into a japanese judo/jiu jitsu class in my krugans brand kimono, the sensai immediately said to me %26quot;I see that yohaveve trained brazilian jiu jitsu%26quot;





it is important for kids to fit in. find out what kind of jiu jitsu he is taking and ask the sensai what brand he sells, or recommends.|||Well Judo uniforms are different to Karate or Taekwon-do uniforms because they have to be thicker to resist tearing when grappling. So as jujitsu uniforms have to fulfil the same requirements it should suffice. To be honest you%26#039;d be better off asking his prospective instructor though. They might insist on a particular brand or something.|||Wow, no one here answered the question. They are similar in material but the fit is different. A judogi tends to be longer in the skirt part and have wider sleeves.Where as in Jiu-Jitsu it tends to be shorter with more narrow sleeves.A lot of BJJ gi have a rubber layer in the collar to prevent moisture from softening it up and giving it a better feel.brands like Atama,or HCK and Sirius can be found for a good price.I use Koral and love them. A good judo gi can be a little more affordable to start but not by much.Look on eBay and ask the instructor as they may have discounts.


Good luck.|||his instructor should have access and better prices....and they are the same, some companies will sell this one or that one but they are the same and there are many types of gi. get at least a double weaved, which im sure they will all be....thats what important|||Speak with your sons instructor about the uniform and see if you can order it from him, or if he recommends a place to buy it from. Hope i helped =]|||just buy a uniform from his academy
