The jacket is crafted from a light and comfortable 380gsm Star Weave fabric, and it’s paired with 10oz Rip-Stop cotton pants designed for both competition and everyday training.
Inside the Gi, the collar features an original sublimated artwork rendered in our unmistakable Half Sumo Irezumi style. A large, soft screen print embellishes the inner jacket—designed to gently fade over time, giving the kimono a rich, vintage character as it ages.
The exterior is finished with high-definition patches, embroideries, and prints that add depth and authenticity to the garment.
We have also included a unique high quality Gi bag. This bag is fully machine washable so you can just throw it in the wash along with the GI.
The GI fits like a modern tapered GI - It is pre-shrunk, but please allow for an additional 4% to 8% natural fabric shrinkage after the first few washes.

OUR DESIGN PROCESS
The Half Sumo design process begins with the simplest tool: a line on paper.
Before a dogi, rashguard, grappling short, T-shirt, hoodie, or accessory becomes part of a finished collection, it starts as hand-drawn artwork. For co-founder and designer Luigi Scarcella Perino, drawing has always been a natural form of expression. Half Sumo Collective grew from that instinct, shaped by childhood afternoons spent reading manga, years of martial arts training, and a visual world built from Japanese woodblock prints, ukiyo-e, irezumi-inspired tattoo art, graffiti, street art, and combat sports culture.
