Outfitting an academy with custom gear means navigating gis, rash guards, shorts, and apparel, each with their own pricing and minimum order rules. Here is the complete picture.

Custom BJJ team gear covers a specific range of products built to order for academies and competition teams — not off-the-shelf retail apparel. This guide rounds up every gear type available, what each one costs, and how to think about outfitting a full team.
**Custom BJJ gis** run $44–$68 per unit with a 25-unit minimum order, built in pearl, single, or gold weave from 350–550 GSM fabric — the highest per-unit cost of any team item, reflecting the fabric and construction involved.
**Custom rash guards** and the short-sleeve variant run $16–$28 per unit, also at a 25-unit minimum, using full sublimation printing that allows unlimited colors at one flat cost.
**Custom MMA shorts and Muay Thai shorts** both run $14–$22 per unit with a 50-unit minimum, built for no-gi training and competition.
**Custom performance t-shirts** are the most flexible item, running $8–$31 per unit at a 25-unit minimum depending on fabric and print complexity.
**Custom spats** round out the no-gi lineup at $14–$22 per unit, 50-unit minimum, typically ordered alongside matching rash guards.
Outfitting a team with a full kit — gi, rash guard, and shorts — costs less per athlete when every item is ordered in the 50–150 unit range rather than right at each item's minimum. See our full breakdown of custom team gear cost for exactly how order size and decoration method affect your total price.
Getting a design right before placing an order saves real money and avoids a costly reorder. Our guide on how to design custom BJJ academy gear walks through color scheme, logo placement, fabric choice, and decoration method in the order they should actually be decided.
Regardless of which item you're ordering, confirm the same core details every time: exact fabric weight and construction, IBJJF-compliant colors and specs if your team competes, the minimum order quantity and how pricing changes at higher volumes, and a realistic production and shipping timeline — commonly several weeks plus shipping, so order well ahead of a season or tournament date.
