I am just wondering where everyone gets their gear to wear for jiu Jitsu on and off the mat?
Personally I don't want to be seen wearing Affliction , Tapout gear ect.. off the mat this seems to be
the look of the new arm chair quarterbacks (those who think they know the sport but don't actually train) I would rather get my stuff from someone who is a bit more underground who supports and sponsors BJJ Athletes who are just getting started in the sport, or those who have been at it for a while even but possibly do not make it their career, but enjoy training and competing and do not want to get lost in the sea of people who do not train and wear (the newest fad brand name stuff to look cool gear).
I discovered BJJ Legion not long ago http://www.thebjjlifestyle.com/ they gave me a discount on the gear I bought from them for joining "The Legion" on their website which also gives opportunities to earn sponsorship even if your a white belt which I found pretty cool.:thumb02:
Anyhow all that leads me back to the question I started the post with.
Where do you get your gear from, and one additional question who gives you sponsorship if any to compete locally?
