About Gameness

Gameness sells Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gis, rash guards, shorts, belts, bags and limited casual apparel. Price points sit in the mid-range tier: adult gis run $120-$180, kids’ sets $90-$120, and technical training shorts about $45. The brand operates its own Shopify-powered site and also wholesales to roughly 150 martial-arts retailers across the U.S., Europe and Japan. Founded in 1998 by BJJ black-belt Vince Tamura, Gameness was among the first companies to pre-shrink cotton pearl-weave gis and back them with a 1-year warranty. The “Elite” and “Air” gis remain reference models for lightweight competition gear, while the “Prime” series adds reinforced stress panels without crossing the 1.3 kg mark. All products are IBJJF competition-legal out of the box. Core buyers are academy-regular white-through-brown belts who train 3-5 times a week and want tournament-grade kit that lasts 12-18 months of heavy use. They value understated branding, neutral colorways and the assurance that the cut will pass weigh-in checks, aligning with a “train hard, compete clean” ethos rather than lifestyle streetwear trends. Gameness competes in the crowded specialty BJJ hard-goods space where most players either chase premium fashion or ultra-budget commodity gis. It differentiates by staying laser-focused on function-driven Jiu-Jitsu equipment, maintaining consistent mid-tier pricing, and offering bulk academy pricing direct from its Texas warehouse—avoiding the drop-ship delays common with larger fight-sport conglomerates.
