The Hood-Gi is the ultimate fusion of martial arts tradition and modern style. Designed for warriors on and off the mat, this unique piece combines the durability of a gi with the comfort of a hoodie, making it perfect for training, casual wear, or repping the martial arts lifestyle wherever you go.
IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT SIZING: The Hood-Gi is “Fitted”so if you prefer a more roomy fit, or are in between sizes, it is best to go with the larger size. For reference, the gentleman in the photos is 5'9" 160lbs, and is wearing a Medium. As an example, if you wear a medium in most brands and prefer fitted clothing, then a medium Hood-Gi should be fine.

The ripstop material is great. I know this is going to last for years.

Decided to treat myself! 5'10", 180lbs, 42" chest, 32" waist, the large fits nice. Wearing a t-shirt and a light sweatshirt under in the pic.
Not sure about the do-rag yet.. ;-)

Got a large fits perfectly and is warm.
Travis S.
Well made. Great looking
Rory J.
Wife wanted this as a birthday present and loves it.
Aoife H.
It’s high quality and feels like a dream. Try it on and you’ll feel it. Perfect for spring morning training.
Mark V.
Fabric is legit! Look it Legit! Interior is Legit! and for my next purchase, I believe accessories are going to be Legit.
Keith L.
the hood-gi is much more sturdy than I expected which is fantastic
Michael
Excellent quality. I am impressed with the quality and style of the hood-gi. The tube bandana pack is fun and great for me doing yard work.
Ebrahim K.
This is the ultimate tactical garment that I’ve come across. It is perfect by virtue of its practicality, whilst it is also aptly aesthetic. The design is truly peerless, to me-I’d say it’s rather Yūgen given the variation I procured(midnight) and how I will be using it. It is very comfortable whilst also being practical for combat situations. Moreover, it can be worn in a very versatile way. There is nothing that can compare to it anywhere, this is one of a kind and a very worthwhile investment, I am particularly pleased with my purchase and will be a lifelong customer of future editions of the hood Gi and other products. I appreciate the Budo Brothers for bringing something like this into existence. I don’t usually like buying things online but my process with them was very smooth. This is a rare occasion for me where a product has vastly exceeded my expectations regarding its quality, based off of how it was presented and the other relevant information.
Sebree L.
This Hood-Gi exceeded my expectations. Very durable, comfortable and fashionable with a touch of Shinobi elements to it. I went with a 3XL for a roomier feel for fighting and for going out casually and I am happy I made that choice because this Gi is quite fitted.
Red is my favourite colour and it looks absolutely stunning with the waves in the Hood-Gi. I like that I can roll up the cuffs to show off the waves and shorten the sleeves to my liking. The Hood is well roomy too and the magnetic buttons help provide and easy close and open for the Gi.
My only feedback would be is to add a Locker Loop on the Hood-Gi. It would be convenient to have so that it's easier hang it up.
Besides that, this Gi is beautiful, super dope and I highly recommend anyone who wants to purchase it. You won't be disappointed.
P.S: I wonder what this would look like if this was a long trench coat/Samurai Kimono style kind of Gi. ;)
ありがとうBudo Brothers!
Karel P.
Whether you train in the GI or NO-GI, you’ll enjoy the way this jacket wears (I especially like the lining)!
arlie P.
Excellent garment. The quality is next level and so is the style. Everything just works and it's quite original. I enjoy the thoughtful use of pockets and fasteners. The lining is soft with a great pattern. It's just a well put hoodie!
JOHN L.
As advertised, like the look and feel. You can ezekiel with this jacket effortlessly ;)
Herb P.
I've been looking at this jacket for a while and I'm very excited that I finally got one and now I have a second one. I can tell you that the quality is excellent. The fit is awesome and I wear it daily. It's a great all-purpose jacket plus it's got a nice style and fits my lifestyle. Great work budo Brothers. I hope you keep doing more of this
Kron A.
An amazing piece of fabric. Love it!
Elias G.
Amazing design! It’s heavy duty static and functional! Couldn’t be happier! Thanks
Peyton A.
This is brilliant! I love the style and fit. I wear large with most hoodies, but I wanted a little room. XL was perfect. The quality is top notch. The materials chosen make more sense now that I own it: the rip-stop (but comfortable) collar, the lining, the gi fabric. All of these work well together. They thought of everything, even the left side opposite the buttons, there is velcro to keep that side fastened. It automatically lines up and latches actually.
TBH I initially thought the price was a tad high, but I've spent more on Gi's and this one will get more wear—but last just as long. Now I think the price is a steal. It's so incredibly durable but oddly stylish! I love the midnight liner. It's perfect for casual Gi wearers and/or for those who can't separate the discipline of martial arts from everyday life. Budo Brothers nailed it with this hooded gi. This is one of the best purchases I made this year. (Excellent customer service too.)
George
Good price and very nice quality of materials used!!
Heath F.
Excellent quality and fits great. So happy that I decided to purchase. Extremely comfortable, warm but not too hot. Casual enough to wear every day but also could be worn as a more formal jacket.
Alfredo G.
The sizes don't match, I guess, U.S. sizes. So I got one size too small on my initial order. The team was awesome, easy exchange for the next size up. Even included free shipping. And this jacket is PERFECT!!!! I'm an avid martial artist, so this just fits my personality perfectly. And now it fits perfectly too. Thanks for making all of this hassle free and free of stress.
James L.
Better than expected. High quality and very stunning design. Exceeded my expectations and was pleasantly surprised when unboxed. Also fits perfectly. Will be buying again as gifts.
Eric M.
Great fit and quality all around!
Mark V.
Great fabric, durable yet stylish!
Troy T.
I originally ordered an XL and returned for an XXL. That's on me, they say right there in the description that it's sized like a fitted hoodie. I'd assumed without reading the description, I ordered like I'd order a gi. The XXL fits a little looser across the back and shoulders exactly like I want it and it looks beautiful. Already gotten compliments on it, and that never happens. The bo shuriken sheath is perfect for Zebra steel barrel pens.
For size references, I'm 6'2", 215#, 36" waist off the rack pants, 44" jackets off the rack, button downs off the rack labeled 'LT'
Jonathan K.
Worth it!
Jacob S.
Great quality, awesome fit. I’m 5’10” 180lbs. Large fits great.
Gene E.
I like the utility the jacket possesses and the ability to layer under it when their is cold weather.
Frank L.
The Hood-Gi is a master piece. It looks so cool and the material is very high quality. I like the design of this Hood-Gi and I love to wear it. Thank you Budo Brothers for making such an amazing stuff.
John L.
Great product and great service.
Jason B.
Great product, looks and fits awesome. Durable material and the liner is awesome.
Diane R.
He loved it!! Great quality! Good size with lots of pockets! Very cool!
Donnelle H.
Great quality and looks awesome.
Herb P.
amazing fit and style. Love this and all they do, get one and you will never go back
Dennis B.
Really happy with it fits good looks amazing
Gene E.
Great jacket. I just have to exchange for a larger size
Dennis U.
I purchased a medium and it fits perfectly! The style is awesome and definitely a head turner.
Augusto C.
I bought this to wear on those days when I'm not wearing a structured belt and pants. Most of my EDC "stuff" fits well into the pockets and is not visible. If anything, the unique Gi design draw eyes toward the design and away from anything concealed. So far, so good! It's awesome, especially for FMA practitioners that add blades to their EDC.
John C.
The Budo Bros jacket - sturdily built, fits like a glove, good pocket placement - highly recommended. And with hood up, perfect for Sith Lord wannabe's. ;-)
Ryan T.
love it
David K.
I have one of each color now! My first was the red, but it didn't quite fit, so I upped the size. The midnight version seems to fit the best, but I love them all!
Jordan P.
Wow this thing is awesome! If you are not sure about size and you are close to either going small or going bigger I recommend going bigger. That's what I did and it worked out great.
Corey G.
I am extremely happy with my hooded-gi. From the material to the fit and feel I am beyond satisfied! The functionality of it just adds more to an already amazing product! And I'd also like to thank the guys at Budo Brothers for the help when my package was stalled in transit, really good people. Overall my experience was exemplary and will definitely be coming back!
Jacob M.
I appreciate the customer service and support. Love the product
Corey
This is by far my new favorite garment lol not only is it built out of top quality materials, it's also extremely functional. I love the inside bo-shuriken pockets and don't get me started on how well it fits. I would have thought they made this one specifically for my body. Anyway I'm beyond happy with this purchase and can't wait to get the other colors!
Charles G.
It is well made.
ROBERT F.
I really love the fit and design. 5/5, would buy again.
Michael L.
First impressions out of the bag shoulders look to narrow.
I was pleasantly surprised they were not in fact the garment really feels Taylor made the fit is spot on. The quality is definitely there very well made the magnetic buttons work very well overall worth the price.
Randy S.
You know how you can buy something 'just because? Been there. The difference here is my 'just because' purchase turned out to be 'just what I needed. This Hood Gi is perfect in every sense. The fit, the construction, the overall feel. Could not be happier! Worth every penny. Budo is quality. Thank you!
Desmond D.
This ist 3rd hood gi! Love the fit and feel! The midnight color is so cool? Alil snugg on the shoulders/lats( I'm a bigger guy), but otherwise amazing as always!
Troy T.
Cool looking lining, heavy and substantial outer fabric. You should pick a size or two bigger than you'd think; it really does fit like a gi you'd roll in.
Nicolas B.
Love the Hood GI, I have one of the first ones in blue and always want the midnight, finally broke down and purchased one. Did 2 extra sizes over this time though, as I like more room to move rather than fitted feel.
Donald W.
This is my second jacket. I plan on getting the gold next.
Anna J.
Looks great.

My Hood-Gi arrived today and it is awesome! The weight of it was the first thing I noticed. It was heavier than I thought it would be in a good way! I typically wear an XL and ordered the XXL and it fits me perfectly and looks great too! The only thing I wish it had was a couple of inside pockets for storage, but that is only a minor gripe on my part.
The color is great and the liner is very nice and feels great while wearing. I like how the pockets are arranged and how it has "secret" weapons pockets, so cool.
Looking forward to wearing it around town!
Carlos I.
I really love the jacket! Thank you for creating it !
Patrick A.
Generous accomodations, well-made, and comfortable. This is my second one, and I love it!
Darryl E.
Awesome look feel and quality. I’ll definitely be back for more. Also I’ll be recommending to others as well.
Daniel C.
Excellent as expected. This is my second one, purchased a smaller size due to dropped weight. Exceptional quality. Comfortable, durable, sharp
Robert S.
Very unique, fits well. Love it.
Torrey S.
Great fit and exceptional quality. It was exactly what I was looking for.
Brady H.
Fits great, looks great, a perfect complement to the Purple Heart items I’ve purchased previously from Budo Bros.
Rodney B.
Looks and feels Great!!
Alvin C.
Item arrived as described and very accurate to its advertised pictures. Loved the very cool hoodie!
Chris D.
Solid Kit!
Paul C.
I love the hoodie. It's fun to wear and warmer than I thought it would be. However, it could use a few more pockets: two on the inside, which would be nice for a phone or wallet, and two larger pockets on the outside instead of just one. It's put together really well, and the lining feels great.
Carlos I.
These jackets are awesome, I bought one for my brother a long time ago and I was waiting to buy me one.
I bought a blue colored and reserved a midnight colored.
They are made for looking good or practicing, I will take mine to Japan when I visit my honbu-dojo.
Nicole
Gift for my husband
He loves it… says it’s warm and has great pocket storage … he’s received many compliments already!
Francisco S.
The jacket feels solid and well made. It is versatile. The lining definitely gives it a nice touch of contrast. However, it is difficult for a big guy with a belly to fully close it comfortably.
Mercedes J.
Originally ordered L in Gold. It arrived within a week. Unfortunately, it was a smidge too tight. The return process took less than 24 hours!!! We had to wait a little longer for delivery because of new years and bad weather. It finally came in last Friday and after wearing it for the past couple of days, IT'S AWESOME! My gentleman loves it and is verry happy with the quality and comfort it provides. Thank you for making such an awesome product!
Michael U.
Absolutely phenomenal piece of clothing - one of my favorites. Heavy, durable, and the hybrid modern style with a classic martial arts feel is extremely unique. A note on coloring - the exterior is a 100% black color. Some of the photos make it look a bit blue-ish (almost aizome), but it's a pure black. Personally, I think this is great and makes the lining really stand out without any clashing hues. Will be following to see what else you come out with!
Anne H.
Fits well and looks great.
Moi B.
Jacket unbuttoned with the slightest pressure and fabric attracts dust easily
Jeremy D.
This thing is awesome. It's heavy enough to wear in the winter, quality material, feels great and looks dope. I love it.
Rebecca B.
I got this for my husband for Christmas and all I can say is I got it right. He loves it and the size is perfect. Thank you!
Michael W.
Bought for my son. He loves it!
Aaron E.
Gi fitted really well! I needed a size larger as I wanted to wear heavier clothing underneath. I plan to get another size smaller in spring when the weather is warmer.
Only issue is the side velcro likes to catch on things if worn unbuttoned.
Anne H.
The item is great but I need to exchange for larger size.
Mary M.
VERY pleased!
Diana
Bought it for my hubby. He loves it. The texture and weight are amazing.
Romy P.
My husband was so happy . He had been talking about this hoodie for so long , the sale really helped . He is in love with it! Great material, it got heaviness to it and very well made.
John K.
The jacket looks, fits, and feels great. Wish the magnetic snap buttons were a bit stronger, though (or had a supporting zipper or other fastener). But overall, solid product.
Gillian K.
Great communication and customer service!
Jessica S.
Love this hoodie! I have been wanting one for a while so I got one with the coupon and I love it. Thank you!
Marc C.
Bought a size 2x which fits just fine for my shirts. But the Gi was way too small very disappointed! Not to mention it will shrink when washed as well. I hope Bhudo bros will allow an exchange.
Tyler C.
I absolutely love the GI hoodie. Good construction, comfortable fit, the hood is super deep. I'll definitely bring buying more from Budo Brothers!
Daniel M.
This is my favorite jacket I've ever owned. The style is awesome, and the fit is perfect. Also, most hoods on jackets tend to run a little small, but there's so much room in the hood that it can be worn comfortably.
Caitlin M.
My boyfriend absolutely loved this. He wears a M and likes fitted so I ordered him the M and it was true to size. Quality is amazing and there are a lot of details to it. Great product and worth every penny.
Megan A.
I ordered the wrong size and needed to exchange. The customer service was awesome (shout out to Erik). Quickly and easily exchanged for the correct size. The hood-gi itself is great quality, made to last. The fabric is comfortable, it's warm, and most importantly it looks super cool. 5 out of 5 stars, highly recommend to all aspiring ninjas.
Randall Q.
The quality of this thing really blew my mind. The material and construction is top notch. I can't wait to see how this thing feels once broke in more. This has to be the most original design I have seen for martial arts gear in a long time. Was excited that it came with a neck gaiter in my hood-gi's color as well. The full on sheath for the Bro-Shuri is insane cool. Also love the magnetic buttons. This thing is sharp
Erik B.
It's add something new to my wardrobe
Bobby W.
I love the way the Gi fits very nice quality, heavy duty
mark m.
Very good quality and sizing was spot on. Very happy with my purchase.
Rev Jamey P.
Product made with amazing quality..
Fit is perfect
I’m 5’7” 200lbs I bought a large and love it !
Jeffrey L.
Erik was the best! I ordered the wrong size and he was very pleasant and professional with making the exchange. The replacement Hood GI fits well and looks amazing! Thank you so much! I would definitely recommend purchasing products from Budo Brothers!
Jorge S.
The only thing, and it is on me, I miscalculated the size, other than that, it is awesome!
Allen
Fits great, looks great. It's definitely the most unique hoodie I own.
Luis
The texture and fabric feels awesome, the design lives up to its name. Would definitely recommend this item to a friend
Lindsey G.
I love this Hood-gi! It's a super high-quality product, it fits great, and it's sexy as anything. Thank you Budo Brothers!!! You guys are great.

Post workout with this epic @budobrothers hoodie. Good for covering up all the bruises after getting tossed in to a shark pit of jujitsu class. Check these out if you can. - Ed
