So you\u2019re here to check out a Fuji Freestyle Rashguard<\/span> review…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…and to find out if it\u2019s as good as everyone says it is?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But first… here\u2019s a fun fact:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BJJ legend John Danaher wears a rash guard EVERY day<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How is that relevant to this review?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, I ended up buying this one because it\u2019s a multi-purpose rash guard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s what I mean:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Review: Here\u2019s My Thoughts and Opinions On the Fuji Freestyle Rash guard\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So why did I choose this rash guard over others?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are so many awesome-looking rash guards<\/a> out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you can only have so many superhero rashies or pictures of gorillas playing chess…<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Fuji<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

…then you realise you\u2019ve spent A LOT of money but still don\u2019t have one you can wear in an IBJJF comp<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I picked the Fuji Freestyle Rash Guard because:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. It\u2019s approved as an IBJJF ranked rash guard<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. It\u2019s still stylish with its picture of Mt Fuji and its Japanese writing (Hiragana), but<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Its design is subtle enough that it can double up as a gym training top if I\u2019m travelling and desperate<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    It’s now my go-to rash guard that I pack every time I travel<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Who is the Fuji Freestyle Rashguard for?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    This rash guard is suitable for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Any rank (it comes in all belt colours, both long and short sleeve)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • If you plan on competing in IBJJF competitions<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • You\u2019re on a budget and don\u2019t want to buy multiple rashies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      I personally think that this one looks best because of the red colouring: <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

      \n
      \"Fuji<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

      [It meets the IBJJF No-Gi rash guard colour rules for both white and black belt]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Design & Style: First Impressions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Sometimes you\u2019re disappointed when a product doesn\u2019t look as good as it did in the pictures<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Thankfully, this wasn\u2019t one of those occasions<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      When I first opened the packet I was just as happy as when I was checking it out online<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      It doesn\u2019t quite break the rule:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \u201cMake sure your gear isn\u2019t better than your Jiu Jitsu\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The wife test:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      She doesn\u2019t make fake vomiting noises if I\u2019m wearing it around the house before training (unlike some of my other ones!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Stopping to get fuel on the way to training?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      No-one bats and eyelid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Could you wear it to a wedding?<\/p>\n\n\n

      Fuji Freestyle Rashguard Price: Here\u2019s How I Got Mine Cheap!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      After a lot of Googling, the cheapest places I found it online were:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Amazon<\/span>, or<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Fuji Australia if you\u2019re down under<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        My thoughts on its price:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. It isn\u2019t the cheapest rash guard<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. It\u2019s not the most expensive either<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. It\u2019s quality that will last<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          This makes it a good rash guard for both training and competition, saving me from buying another one<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Fuji Freestyle Rashguard: Sizing and Fit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          Fuji\u2019s rash guard sizing chart is quite simple and based off chest size:<\/p>\n\n\n

          \n
          \"Fuji<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

          I was a bit concerned it\u2019d be too short (that\u2019s why I bought directly from Fuji Australia)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          The Large fits perfect for my height and weight (6\u20191\u201d and 90 kg or 200 lbs)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          And:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          No shrinkage<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          My Results From Using the Fuji Freestyle Rashguard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          I thought the thickness of the material meant durability, but\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          … I would overheat in it<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          The material is surprisingly breathable (unlike some other rash guards that I cook in!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          And because the sizing tends to run slimmer, it\u2019s a bit longer\u2026 So doesn\u2019t ride up while I\u2019m rolling<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Pretty much:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          It\u2019s comfortable AF<\/p>\n\n\n

          \n

          Durability: How Has it Lasted?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          I\u2019ll be honest, I\u2019ve only had it a few weeks<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          It\u2019s shown no signs of wear and tear yet. The stitching is all reinforced, so I would expect that to be the case!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          But the main thing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          It doesn\u2019t stink (because it has anti-microbial fabric, whatever that means)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Conclusion: Very Happy With the Fuji Freestyle IBJJF Ranked Rash Guard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          Overall, I\u2019m really impressed with the Fuji Freestyle Rashguard. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          I highly recommend it especially if you\u2019re wanting a rash guard that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • Can be used for both training and IBJJF competitions<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Is quality that will last<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Means you don\u2019t need to buy two separate rashies, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Still has an element of style<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
