Free Tip for a Cleaner and More Epic BJJ Kimono

Here's a simple tip for a cleaner and fresher smelling BJJ Gi - Dry it outdoors.

This is different from simply letting it air dry indoors. Outdoor, you're letting the sun's rays unleash some whoop ass on odor and disease causing bacteria still lurking within your freshly-washed gi.

There's just something about laundry that's been hung out to dry in the sun. You know what I'm talking about if you've ever worn something that's been dried on a good old clothes line. It just seems to be cleaner.

Give it a shot with your smelly gis, MMA shorts, and even rash guards. Make sure you watch out for shrinkage as you would when you put a gi in a mechanical dryer.
