Custom BJJ Team Gear: The Complete Guide for Academies

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.

The Core Gear Types

**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.

Planning a Full Team Order

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.

Designing Before You Order

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.

What Every Order Should Confirm

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum order for custom BJJ team gear? It varies by item — 25 units for gis, rash guards, and apparel, and 50 units for fight shorts and spats. Every product page shows its exact minimum.

Can I order gis and rash guards together in one quote? Yes — email us the items and quantities you need and we'll send back one combined itemized quote rather than separate quotes per gear type.

How much does a full team kit cost per athlete? It depends on order size and decoration complexity, but ordering a full kit (gi, rash guard, shorts) together in the 50–150 unit range per item typically gets the best per-unit pricing — see our full cost breakdown for specifics.

The Bottom Line

Custom BJJ team gear spans gis, rash guards, shorts, spats, and apparel, each with its own pricing and minimum order size. Plan a full team kit together rather than one item at a time, confirm fabric and IBJJF-compliance details upfront, and build in real lead time before a season or tournament date.
