The capsule is rooted in the early days of jiu-jitsu, a period that deeply shaped both Vince and Tokuro during the 1990s and 2000s, when jiu-jitsu was exploding in the U.S. and Japan and beginning to change the landscape of mixed martial arts worldwide.

The collection blends Nepenthes’ signature purple and tie-dye language with the core symbols of both brands. It is bold, but still restrained. Graphic, but considered.

While the inspiration comes from the past, the product is built for right now. The cuts, materials, and construction are designed for modern competitive jiu-jitsu, with a focus on function first, both in training and in competition.

Care Guide

Wash Instructions
  • Separate Colours - Wash your Jiu-Jitsu gi separately from other clothing, especially during the first few washes, to prevent colour bleeding.
  • Cold Water - Use cold water for washing to help preserve the colour and prevent shrinkage.
  • Gentle Cycle - Use a gentle cycle on your washing machine to avoid excessive wear and tear on the fabric.
  • Mild Detergent - Use a mild detergent to clean your gi. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can damage the fabric and affect its performance.
  • Inside Out - Turn the gi inside out before washing to help protect the outer layer and maintain its appearance.
Drying Instructions
  • Air Dry - Air drying is the best option for your Jiu-Jitsu gi. Hang it on a clothesline or a hanger to dry naturally.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight - If drying outdoors, avoid direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent fading.
  • Shrinkage Prevention - If you're concerned about shrinkage, consider allowing the gi to air dry until it's slightly damp and then finish drying it in a low-heat dryer for a short time.
General Care Tips
  • If your gi has patches or embroidery, turn it inside out before washing to protect these details.
  • Regularly inspect your gi for any signs of wear, loose threads, or damage. Repair any issues promptly to prevent further damage.
  • If you train frequently, it's a good idea to have multiple gis to rotate between sessions. This allows each gi to air out and reduces the frequency of washing.
  • Fabric softeners can affect the absorbency of the fabric, so it's best to avoid using them.
Remember to always check the care instructions provided on your gi's label, as they may have specific recommendations for your specific model.
