How to keep your Venum BJJ Gi clean and in top condition

Written by Combat Store AS, June 2025

For those of you who train Brazilian jiu-jitsu, your Venum BJJ-gi is an essential part of your equipment. It is not just a suit, but a tool that must be comfortable, durable and in good condition to support you on the mat. With proper maintenance, you can extend the life of your Venum-gi and keep it fresh and functional. Here, Combat Store AS shares its best tips for taking care of your Venum BJJ-gi.

How to wash your Venum BJJ gi properly

Follow these steps to ensure your Venum gi stays in top quality:

• Wash after each use
  A Venum BJJ gi absorbs sweat and bacteria during training. Wash the gi after each session to keep it hygienic and odor-free.

• Wash the gi alone
  Wash your Venum gi separately from other clothing to avoid damage to embroidery or color transfer.

• Turn the garment inside out before washing.
  The inside out design protects the fabric and iconic Venum embroidery from wear and tear in the washing machine.

• Treat stains quickly
  If you have stains, soak the garment in cold water immediately to loosen dirt before washing.

• Removing odors with vinegar
  If the garment starts to smell, soak it in a mixture of water and half a cup of white vinegar for 30–60 minutes before washing.

• Use mild detergent
  Choose a gentle, high-quality detergent to protect the fibers of your Venum gi.

• Always wash in cold water
  Cold water prevents shrinkage and preserves the strength and color of the yarn.

• Air dry naturally
  Hang the gi on a sturdy hanger in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight to protect the Venum colors.

This is what you should avoid with your Venum BJJ gi

To ensure your Venum gi stays like new, avoid the following:

• Don't leave the gift in your gym bag
  A damp bag will cause a bad smell and can damage the fabric over time.

• Avoid bleach
  Bleach can damage the fibers and discolor your Venum gi.

• Drop fabric softener
  Fabric softener reduces the strength of the fabric and can make the garment less durable.

• Do not use hot water.
  Hot water can cause shrinkage and weaken the structure of the glass.

• Stay away from the dryer
  Tumble drying can cause uneven shrinkage and damage seams and embroidery.

• Don't iron the gift.
  Ironing can damage the collar and other parts of the jacket, which are designed to withstand tough use.

Why maintenance pays off

A well-maintained Venum BJJ gi is not just about hygiene – it extends its lifespan, provides a better training experience and saves you money on having to replace the suit. With these tips from Combat Store AS, you can keep your Venum gi in top condition, session after session.
