Care Guide

Keep Your Gi Pristine

It is recommended that REiHO uniforms be washed after every wearing in cold water with a neutral, non-alkaline laundry detergent. After washing, immediately hang up to line dry.

Cold Water Only

Hot water causes shrinkage and fabric damage

Wash Separately

Never mix with other garments

Line Dry Indoors

UV rays cause discoloration and weaken fabric

Uniform Cleaning

Step-by-Step Wash Guide

Follow these steps carefully after every training session to preserve the quality, shape, and longevity of your REiHO uniform.

The Result

If you follow these steps your uniform will stay clean and last for many years.

01

Turn your do-gi inside out for more effective cleaning.

This can also help prevent discoloration from sweat.

02

Wash your do-gi by itself (no other clothes) after every use in COLD water only.

03

Use a "neutral" (pH 6.5 to 7.5) non-alkaline detergent.

04

If possible, add a second rinse cycle or stronger rinse setting to wash away any remaining detergent after washing.

05

Immediately after washing, hang it up inside your home to dry to avoid UV rays "sunburn" damage and wrinkles.

Made in Bangladesh

With the Made in Bangladesh Uniform, the cotton will become stronger and softer with every proper wash — improving with continued care over time.

Belt Maintenance

Black Belt Care

If your belt is dirty then we recommend hand-washing with mild detergent in cold water. As with the uniform, hang it out to line dry immediately after washing.

Hand Wash Only
Gently hand-wash with mild detergent. Machine washing can unravel stitching and distort the shape.
Cold Water
Use cold water only — never hot. Cold water preserves the belt's color density and fabric integrity.
Line Dry
Hang immediately after washing. Lay flat or hang indoors to maintain shape and avoid UV fading.
No Ironing
Avoid ironing your belt. The embroidery and fabric structure can be permanently damaged by direct heat.
