BJJ Gi Manufacturer for United States Brands

Top-rated BJJ gi manufacturer supplying United States brands and importers. OEM cut-and-sew, MOQ 50 pcs, BSCI + OEKO-TEX certified, full export docs (US HS...

BJJ is one of the fastest-growing combat-sports markets in the US (estimated 800K+ active practitioners in 2026), and we've manufactured for about 18 US BJJ brands since 2019. Most are gym-affiliated (each gym wants their own private-label academy gi) or DTC brands targeting the hobbyist tier. Pearl weave fabric weights: 350 GSM (light competition), 450 GSM (standard competition), 550 GSM (heavyweight training). All three are pre-shrunk on receipt and tested for IBJJF compliance (collar thickness, lapel width, sleeve length, gi-pants gusset). For brands selling into the competition market, the 350 GSM is the most popular because IBJJF rules are stricter on heavy gis. Real landed cost for a 450 GSM standard pearl weave gi at 100-pc MOQ to a US 3PL: ~$28 FOB Karachi + $2.50 sea freight + $5 US import duty (15.6% on cotton garments) + $0.60 3PL = $36 landed. Sells at retail $90-150 for the premium hobbyist tier. Decoration: embroidery on chest, sleeve, and lapel; printed patches; custom labels; contrast collar/cuff color; private label hangtags. IBJJF-legal patch positions are documented in their rulebook — we follow it. Custom academy/team patches go through us as a digitizing service ($30-50 per logo, 48-hour turnaround). Pants are sold separately or as part of a gi+pants set. The pants weight typically matches the gi (450 GSM gi → 350-400 GSM ripstop cotton pants). Drawstring or cord-loop closure standard. What we don't compete on: kids gis under $15 FOB. The construction cost on kids gis (smaller fabric quantities, smaller patterns, but same labor) doesn't favor Pakistan at sub-$15 retail. Vietnamese factories do this better.

Shipping BJJ jiu-jitsu gi uniforms from Pakistan to USA

We ship BJJ jiu-jitsu gi uniforms from our Daska, Sialkot factory to USA buyers via three standard routes: • Sea freight (most economical) — Karachi to Long Beach 28-32 days, Karachi to New York/NJ 35-40 days. Goods are loaded at Karachi Port after rail or road haul from Sialkot Dry Port. Recommended for orders 200+ pieces. • Air freight (fastest) — New York JFK, Los Angeles LAX, Chicago ORD, Atlanta ATL — 3-7 days from Lahore via DXB or DOH. Used for samples, urgent reorders and trade-show shipments under 50 kg. • Express courier — DHL, FedEx, UPS, Aramex for samples and very small orders (under 30 kg). 2-5 business days door-to-door. Major USA ports we ship into: Long Beach, Los Angeles, New York/New Jersey, Savannah, Houston, Oakland. DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) is our default for USA clients — we handle all export documentation, freight booking, destination customs clearance and final-mile delivery. Your buyer signs once at their warehouse and the goods are theirs.

Import duty and trade terms for BJJ jiu-jitsu gi uniforms into USA

No Section 301 surcharge applies to Pakistan-origin (only China-origin is hit by 7.5-25% additional tariffs). Standard MFN duty applies — typically 12-20% for apparel categories — with no GSP since Pakistan's US GSP eligibility has lapsed at the federal level. Net effect: Pakistan-origin still beats China-origin landed cost by a wide margin once the 301 surcharge is factored in. Payment and contract terms commonly used with American buyers: Wire transfer T/T 30/70 (30% deposit, 70% before shipment) is standard. Letters of Credit for 5,000+ piece orders. PayPal and credit cards available for sample charges only. Communication: all communication in English; US Pacific and Eastern time-zone overlap means same-day responses to morning email. Trade documentation we issue with every shipment includes commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin (Form A where preferential rates apply), insurance certificate and inspection certificate. Mutual NDA signed within one business day before any technical specification is shared.
