Shoyoroll Batch #136: Competitor Retro Kimono Black Edition with Bag

Step onto the mats in timeless style and unmatched performance with the Shoyoroll Batch #136: Competitor Retro Kimono – Black Edition. This limited-release jiu-jitsu gi is a celebration of classic Shoyoroll craftsmanship blended with modern performance upgrades. Designed for athletes who demand both heritage aesthetics and high-level functionality, this kimono stands as a testament to Shoyoroll’s legacy of innovation and attention to detail.

The Competitor Retro Kimono brings back the signature look and feel that made early Shoyoroll releases so iconic, featuring retro-inspired embroidery, minimalistic branding, and a clean, traditional silhouette. The all-black colorway adds a sense of understated power and sophistication — perfect for practitioners who appreciate a refined yet commanding look on the mats. Every stitch, fabric choice, and design cue reflects the brand’s dedication to creating gear that performs as beautifully as it looks.

Premium Construction & Materials

The jacket of the Batch #136 kimono is crafted from high-grade pearl weave cotton, balancing durability, comfort, and breathability. The mid-weight construction ensures you can train year-round — light enough to move freely during intense rolling sessions, yet strong enough to endure countless washes and competitions. Reinforced stitching along stress points adds long-term resilience, giving you a gi that truly lasts.

The pants feature durable twill cotton, engineered to provide strength and flexibility where it matters most. Reinforced knee panels enhance protection during takedowns and scrambles, while the tailored cut minimizes excess material that could slow you down. A traditional drawstring waistband ensures a secure and adjustable fit for every athlete.

Both the jacket and pants have been pre-shrunk and treated to maintain color depth and integrity, so your gi keeps its clean black finish even after months of consistent use.

Retro Design with Modern Edge

The “Retro” moniker isn’t just for show. Shoyoroll revisits its early roots with vintage-style woven patches and minimal logos that capture the nostalgia of the brand’s golden era. Subtle embroidery details on the shoulders and lapel showcase the Shoyoroll insignia with a tone-on-tone finish for a sleek, professional aesthetic.

The kimono comes with a matching black premium carry bag, made from heavy-duty canvas with the Shoyoroll logo patch — perfect for keeping your gear protected and organized between training sessions or when traveling to tournaments.

Fit & Comfort

The Shoyoroll Competitor Retro Kimono is designed with a modern athletic cut that offers a perfect balance of mobility and structure. It sits comfortably across the shoulders without restricting movement, and the tailored body provides a sharp, competition-ready look. The fabric has a smooth, soft interior that reduces skin irritation during long rolls, making it ideal for both training and competition.

Whether you’re a seasoned black belt, a white belt just starting your journey, or a collector of iconic BJJ gear, this kimono delivers the premium feel and technical quality synonymous with the Shoyoroll name.

Performance for Every Level

Engineered with feedback from top-level jiu-jitsu athletes, the Batch #136 kimono is built to perform under pressure. The pearl weave jacket provides excellent grip resistance, making it harder for opponents to maintain strong holds. The twill pants move naturally with your body, enhancing agility during guard play, passing, and transitions.

Every element, from the reinforced lapel to the high-quality stitching, has been tested to meet competition standards. This gi isn’t just about looks — it’s designed for performance, endurance, and comfort at the highest levels of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
