Bandeira, the Flag Reimagined.
The deep green and weathered yellow make a bold design without being loud. The diamond that wraps the torso follows your rotations and shows the moment you turn up the pressure. For anyone who trains with Brazil on their mind, every session.

The story of the design
What the rash guard Bandeira says
Bandeira means "flag" in Portuguese. Here, Brazil's flag is cut apart into bold, graphic pieces. The forest green base keeps the fine grain of real fabric. A yellow diamond panel, weathered and cut with sharp angles, wraps the torso from chest to back. At the center of the back, a navy circle carries a scatter of small white stars, like a night sky. A yellow trim traces the raglan seams and outlines the shoulders. A flag read as a graphic piece, not a souvenir.
Built for BJJ, no-gi, grappling, and luta livre. Also check out our BJJ rash guard, no-gi rash guard, and grappling rash guard selections.

Material and care
Built to last, round after round
A rash guard is judged by the 50th wash and the 200th guard pass. Here's what makes the Bandeira hold up.
- 230g/m², dense knit
- 12 %spandex
- 4-way stretch
- Protects your skinThe rash guard shields your skin from the mat: it limits burns and friction against the gi or your opponent.
- Stays lightThe polyester-spandex blend wicks away sweat: the piece never gets heavy, even after several rounds.
- Never rides upFitted without squeezing, it stays in place through guard passes, reversals and takedowns.
- A design woven into the fabricThe Bandeira design isn't printed on the fabric, it's in the fabric: it stays soft and never feels scratchy, wash after wash.
Cut and sewn by hand: the placement of the design may vary slightly from one piece to another.

What size should I take for this rashguard?
True to size, compression fit: take your usual size. Between 2 sizes, go up for more room, go down for a compression fit. The table gives body measurements, not garment measurements. Returns within 30 days, exchange at your cost unless defective.
Does the design hold up in the wash?
Yes: the design is printed into the fibre, with no surface coating. It won't crack or come off in the wash. Wash at 30°C maximum, inside out, with no fabric softener, and air dry.
Does the rashguard stay in place on the ground?
Cut: fitted, with 12 % spandex. The piece follows your movement without flapping or giving anyone a grip. Fitted to your size, it stays close to the body.
Rash guard or compression tee?
The rash guard carries the design across the whole surface, from collar to wrists. It protects the skin from friction and mat burns in no-gi BJJ, grappling and MMA.
The compression tee is plain and understated: one colour, the Rashu badge. It supports the muscles and can be worn on its own or under the gi.
