About XMartial BJJ Shorts

Real BJJ shorts need three things: reinforced seams that don't blow out on takedowns, a waistband that stays put during scrambles, and quick-dry fabric that doesn't turn into a wet blanket after five minutes of rolling. Our collection meets all three — plus IBJJF-legal options for competition and streetwear cuts for casual training.

Our collection includes velcro and velcro-less shorts, competition cuts, and casual training styles. Men's, women's, and kids' sizes available. Pair with our BJJ rash guards, spats, or spats shorts for the complete no-gi kit.

Also known as jiu jitsu shorts, no-gi shorts, or grappling shorts, XMartial BJJ shorts are trusted by 100,000+ grapplers worldwide.

BJJ Shorts FAQ

Are XMartial BJJ shorts IBJJF competition legal?

Yes. Our competition-cut shorts meet IBJJF regulations for length, materials, and construction. Look for the "IBJJF Legal" tag on individual product pages to confirm which styles are approved for competition.

What's the difference between BJJ shorts and MMA shorts?

BJJ shorts are typically longer, with reinforced seams built for constant grip fighting and scrambles. MMA shorts are shorter with more stretch, designed for striking mobility. If you're grappling primarily, BJJ shorts. If you're mixing striking and grappling, MMA shorts.

Velcro vs velcro-less — which is better?

Velcro closures are traditional and adjustable — good for changing waist sizes or getting a precise fit. Velcro-less (drawstring or elastic) shorts are more competition-friendly (IBJJF prohibits sharp velcro edges) and more comfortable long-term. Most competitors prefer velcro-less.
