OK! Kimonos is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu apparel brand that focuses on having a friendly vibe. We embrace the fun part of training that encourages life-long improvement. There's a pervasive ultra-competitive attitude in messaging by other brands in this space and OK! Kimonos stands in the face of it. Training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu isn't a zero-sum game, it's a great art that promotes growth and humility.OK! Kimonos specializes in high quality gis. Each kimono is made with durable gold-weave fabric and uses 100% cotton. The design subtly combines the best features seen from the best gis available, as well as some distinct add-ons of our own. Each line leans towards using a higher weight cotton and reinforced stitching. The result is a gi that rolls great and lasts a long time. As the new owner, I do everything from inventory management and forecasting, down to help emails and packing orders.
