Why do BJJ practitioners wear spats?

Spats serve several important functions for BJJ practitioners: they protect skin from mat burn during ground transitions, provide a hygienic layer between skin and shared mat surfaces, and are required at most competitions under gi pants (IBJJF requires spats or fight shorts under gi pants for male competitors). The compression fit also provides muscle support that reduces fatigue during long rolling sessions and aids recovery between training days. For serious BJJ practitioners, spats are a fundamental training accessory rather than optional gear.

Can I wear the Geo Spats under a gi?

Yes — spats are commonly worn under gi pants for both comfort and competition compliance. The compression fit stays smooth under gi pants without bunching. The Grey colourway is a practical choice for under-gi use as it presents cleanly when gi pants are lifted or removed. Blue and Red options suit no-gi training and competition where the spats are worn as outerwear. Many BJJ practitioners own multiple colourways: neutral for under-gi, vibrant for no-gi.

How do the Geo Spats pair with other Geo line products?

The Geo Jiu-Jitsu Spats are designed as part of a coordinated kit with the Geo Short Sleeve Rash Guard and Geo Long Sleeve Rash Guard. The Blue, Grey, and Red colourways in the Geo Spats overlap with the Geo rash guard colourways to enable coordinated no-gi training outfits. Pairing the Geo Long Sleeve Rash Guard with matching Geo Spats creates a full-body compression outfit for competition or drilling-heavy training sessions.

How should I care for BJJ compression spats?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, inside out. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat only — high heat degrades compression fabric and elastic fibres over time. Wash after every training session without exception — spats accumulate sweat and bacteria faster than most other training gear due to full-leg contact with mat surfaces. Avoid fabric softeners, which coat compression fibres and reduce moisture-wicking performance. Consistent proper care maintains compression performance through years of regular training.
