Our take

Elite Sports makes the lowest-priced gi that still turns up on review lists. Its current listing gives a 450 GSM pearl-weave pre-shrunk jacket (older listings say 400 GSM, from an earlier version), cotton-poly pants with a rope drawstring, and a white belt in the box. The brand says it meets the IBJJF standard.

The one thing to get right is size. Elite Sports says its sizing doesn't match other brands, and a hands-on reviewer found the jacket ran small, so use Elite's own chart rather than your usual size. The cotton-poly pants are less breathable than all-cotton, which is part of how the price stays this low.

    A light 350 GSM training gi with a white belt. It falls below IBJJF's 380 GSM jacket minimum for juvenile, adult and master competition.
