SanabulEssential Compression Tights Men No Gi Jiu Jitsu Spats

These feel so awesome that I wanted to write a review as soon as I put them on. Definitely buy these!I've had these on my wishlist for a very long time, and finally made the purchase. I'm 6',2.5" @ 190 lbs., usually wear a size 34w x 34l in Dockers, for example, and for these Sanabul spats I chose size Medium. I have ectomorph body type with a small but definite beer gut. They fit spectacularly.These feel luxurious. I can hardly wait to train JJ in these. I'm probably building them up too much, and now that you've read this, they won't feel so luxurious. But at least you will probably be satisfied. Probably proper sizing will have an effect.I had a couple pair of regular running spats that I'd gotten from discount stores, but not made for grappling. I finally bought a pair of Gracie Triangle Spats-XLarge. I'm 6'2.5" @ 190lbs. The Gracie University store website said Rener and Ryron 6'4" and wear a size Large, but I get claustrophobic/overly-sensitive to clothing, so I bought the XL. After seeing some of the other guys in my JJ class wearing snug spats, and how they fit, but also thinking that more stretch might cause the material to thin out a bit, feel lighter and thus feel more comfortable, I started trying smaller sizes.So, I bought the Anthem HELO-X spats in Medium, which in some ways fit good, but I need to try them in Large. The Anthem spats are designed to fight hardcore without shorts on. They have a drawstring, but also have a thin band of material that totally stops stretching at a certain point. There's no way they'll come off in a real fight. That point of maximum stretch happens to be barely enough for me to even get them on. This is also true of the cuff. The cuff maxes out at a pretty small diameter, and I have to be careful putting my foot through, so as not to rip them. I should have bought them in Large, however: The Anthems are just slightly loose above the ankle, and don't hug the bottom of my leg. It's kind of weird that the cuff is so tight, yet the section directly above it has slack. The Sanabuls hug very well from waist to cuff, to give a bit more of that second skin feel than the Anthems. The Anthems certainly hug almost all over, like a second skin, given that they are smaller than the recommended size, but they don't feel as luxurious as the Sanabuls.And by the way, don't be thrown off by the word luxurious. These are bona-fide grappling spats. They are more substantial than regular fitness spats. I've only owned them for a few minutes, but they feel like they are designed to take the abrasion of grappling, and guard against rash.I will definitely be buying more of these. In fact, although I will be buying one size up & one size down, just to see how they vary. They really feel stretchy enough to be comfortable & fit well at different amounts of compression.Also: I bought grey. I light the satin finish reflects light & shadows just like what I was hoping for.The waist band is surprisingly comfortable, given that I bought smaller than recommended size, and have a bit of a belly.

great comfortable and durable spats for BJJ. great value for the price. very happy with this purchase, even bought a second pair!

relatively inexpensive and fits/wears well. a staple to my NoGi collection

My husband got these pants to do Jiu Jitsu in. He loves it. He is 6'4", so they are slightly shorter on him, but he usually wears them with long socks, so he doesn’t mind. Great quality and comfort.

Used it for jiu jitsu. Fit great and held up.

I purchased this rashguard pants back in March of 2019 and mainly use it for BJJ twice a week consistently. To this present day, the quality of this rash guard has been impressive! Rash guard is extremely comfortable, is also great to wear under clothes as a great insulation to stay warm during freezing winter weather, has survived hundreds of wash and dry cycles from washing machines. I highly recommend this rash guard, and would definitely buy it again.

Fit like a sleeve and very comfortable while working out.

I have used these for over 6 months, and they still feel great, I liked them so much that I purchased another, of a different color. They are comfortable hold up really well.

Son prácticas, las utilizo para hacer ejercicio

Bought these for no-gi Jiu Jitsu. Great fit, comfortable, and do the job. Wear them on average 6 hours of hard rolling a week and they show no signs of wear. For Gracie Barra guys, the logo does not show enough so you can wear it at those gyms (at least at mine).

Excelente calidad

Buenos spats por el precio. Son de buena calidad y me quedaron como esperaba (Large - mido 1.73 y uso 32-33 de cintura).

When I first opened the package and took a look, I thought to myself “uh-oh, these look like they are too small” (Size Medium, I’m 5’6 weighing 150 lbs)I tried them on and they actually fit super well. They are really flexible and feels like I have nothing limiting my Range of Motion while wearing a Gi. Buy them!
