Ross for all my rashguards. Get them for $8 to $15. You gotta spend time looking though.

All 3 you listed are great rashguards. I find myself never using my Sprawl ones anymore though. I like the xf gear the best, it's the thinnest and is very durable, I have 1 I've been using for a year with no problems. The Nogi rg's are a little thicker and also very high quality.

My only complaint about the xfgear is that they are tough to remove once you are sweaty.

If you don't want your gut noticed then definitely go with the sprawl. For your height and weight I'd say a medium would be perfect.

Hmm...Not sure if I mind gut showing or not. I've seen this big guy in my old gym witha nice beergut, and he doesn't mind. His fists were like bricks though. One thing I was worried about was how LOOSE is the Loose grappling top? I wouldn't want it loose like a damn t-shirt. Looking really for something fit, but roomy.

It's pretty loose, it hangs very much like a T-shirt.

I have a couple Nike rashguards and I'm about to order a couple of XFGear rashguards. Both of my Nike rashguards are pilling but haven't ripped yet luckily.

I think I will get a nogi and a XF gear. Now, for t-shirts, I buy Large, because they usually shrink a tad. A medium is kinda perfect for me, until they shrink. Which size should I buy for nogi and XFgear?

BaconTastesGood · 07-26-2007, 03:06 PM

Since most rashies are synthetic, get the appropriate size and assume no shrinkage -- so get medium. And since they're tight fitting anyway, even if it's a little small it shouldn't be an issue.

Buy a quality RG. man they are the shit! I didn;t even realize how helpful they are.

everyone in class was soaked from sweat, and I felt real good and fresh. I wore a t-shirt over the nogi RG and my shirt was bone dry! not a drop of sweat got to it! and I felt nice and cool.

I want the nogi charcoal with the rasberry logo, but they only have medium and XL in stock. I currently have the large which is usually my size.

should I get an XL I mean it will still fit good since its a tight fit shirt anyways.

so what brands keep it in and which brands keep it out?

The more you train the more you realize it doesn't matter what rashguard you're wearing. They all get the job done.
