Caring for your judo uniform is essential to extend its lifespan and maintain its quality. A clean and dry gi is crucial for optimal performance and hygiene.
Before storing or transporting your gi, make sure it's completely dry to prevent bacterial growth and odor buildup. You can speed up the drying process by airing out the gi in a well-ventilated area for several hours before storage.
To maintain your gi's cleanliness, wash it after every use with mild soap and cold water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that can damage the fabric. Gently blot excess water with a clean towel, then let it air dry completely.

To store your gi properly, follow these steps:
- Hang the gi in a well-ventilated area, such as a hook or a drying rack.
- Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Cover the gi with a clean towel to prevent dust and moisture buildup.

Additional tips for drying and maintaining your judo uniform:
- Use a fan to speed up the drying process.
- Clean your gi regularly with mild soap and cold water.
- Avoid using fabric softener or bleach, which can damage the gi's fabric.
