Sanabul Compression BJJ Spats<\/strong><\/p>\nHow To Pick The Best BJJ Spats<\/h2>\nPrice<\/h3>\n
The price is the most important factor that determines all the others. More expensive does not always mean better, especially on the higher end of things, but the high-end product is much better than the lower end every time.<\/p>\n
The price can range from $12 to $75, depending on the brand and design.<\/p>\n
As I said, the quality is always outstanding after a certain point at around 50 bucks; the difference usually is in the design and brand name.<\/p>\n
XMartial spats are more expensive initially, but they have many sales and coupons you can use, so you can find them at competitive prices for the quality they offer.<\/p>\n
If you don’t have much money to spend on spats, buying a few pairs of cheaper ones is better than a single expensive pair because you need a fresh pair for every training session.<\/p>\n
Materials and Quality<\/h3>\n
The price largely determines the materials used. Two pairs of spats may have the same blend of fabric.<\/p>\n
For example, 85% polyester and 15% spandex, but the cheaper one usually has much less overall material, making it thinner, less durable, and less compressing.<\/p>\n
The blends matter in terms of stretchiness and feel. Choosing is only a matter of preference, as no blend is better or worse than the others; they are just different.<\/p>\n
Flatlock stitching is a must for spats and rash guards because the seams are much more durable, not to mention they lay flat on the skin and are more comfortable.<\/p>\n
Comfort And Fit<\/h3>\n
All spats must be tight-fitting while being comfortable at the same time. This means you must pick up the correct size because it won’t have any compression qualities if it’s too loose, and the fabric will easily ride up. If it’s too tight, you will find it uncomfortable and restrictive.<\/p>\n
One feature I will advise against is the drawstring found on some models, which is completely unnecessary given the tight fit of spats, while it can get quite uncomfortable while rolling.<\/p>\n
Designs<\/h3>\n
More expensive spats are often offered with interesting visuals and designs, while others are just intended to be used as base layer clothing and are pure black.<\/p>\n
XMartial is the king of variety in designs, so if you are looking for something interesting, chances are you will find it there. Other brands like Venum also have some interesting visuals on them.<\/p>\n
Frequently Asked BJJ Spats Questions<\/h2>\n
![\"Best](\"https:\/\/rollingaroundbjj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Best-BJJ-Rash-Guard.jpg\" "\\"Best")
<\/span><\/p>\nWhy Do People Wear Spats in BJJ?<\/h3>\n
Grapplers wear spats for several reasons. The biggest of them is that they protect the skin against infections, mat burns, and scrapes.<\/p>\n
In addition, they shield the skin from sweat and other bodily fluids, while in winter, the extra layer of fabric is always welcome on the freezing mats.<\/p>\n
Spats are not mandatory in BJJ, even in no-gi, and many people don’t wear them, so don’t feel compelled to. But the benefits are real, so you should at least try having spats for a few sessions and see how it feels and make the decision.<\/p>\n
BJJ Spats vs. Compression Pants<\/h3>\n
BJJ spats and compression pants look similar but are not the same. BJJ spats are usually thicker and have better-reinforced seams to withstand more wear and tear.<\/p>\n
Additionally, compression pants are always just one color because they are intended to be worn as a base layer, while BJJ spats come in more exciting designs.<\/p>\n
Some BJJ spats also offer compression qualities, but not all are tight enough, despite what you may read in the product description.<\/p>\n
How Do You Wash Spats<\/h3>\n
Spats are cleaned like synthetic training gear, meaning rash guards and BJJ shorts. The best practices include:<\/p>\n
\n- Wash the spats after each training session<\/span><\/li>\n
- Hang dry, and do not use machine drying. Spats dry up quickly anyway<\/span><\/li>\n
- Avoid washing spats with clothes that have open Velcro straps, which can damage the fabric<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Summary<\/h2>\n
Spats are not mandatory for jiu-jitsu training but have many benefits, mainly skin protection. Depending on your preferences, they can be worn underneath a gi, shorts, or as standalone bottom apparel.<\/p>\n
XMartial produces some of the best BJJ spats with top-quality materials and stunning visuals. But if you don’t have the budget for high-tier spats, mid and even low-tier models will do the job well enough.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Unlike rashguards and BJJ shorts, which everyone doing no-gi grappling uses, spats or BJJ leggings are optional. But if you have sensitive skin, are a bit squeamish, or train on ice-cold mats in the winter (like I do), spats are a must-have.
