Review: Excellent Quality and Lite - This Gi is excellent. The fit was great and it was lite cool and very tough. The pants at first looked really wide but they sinched down with no issues and the length is perfect for me at 6'5". Definitely worth the money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Starter/Training Gi That Gets the Job Done
*by G***J on November 16, 2025*

I’ve been training in the Venum Contender 2.0 BJJ Gi for a bit now, and it’s turned out to be a really solid choice. The material feels sturdy without being overly heavy, and it breaks in quickly after a few sessions. Definitely comfortable enough for regular training. The fit is pretty good overall—slightly on the slimmer side, but not restrictive once you get moving. The stitching and reinforcements feel dependable, and so far it’s held up well during rolling. For the price, the durability is honestly better than I expected. My only heads-up is that it can shrink a little, so washing on cold and hang-drying is the way to go. After that, it settles into a nice, natural fit. Nothing too flashy in terms of design, but it looks clean, feels tough, and performs well. If you’re looking for a reliable budget-friendly gi for training, the Contender 2.0 is a strong pick. Would definitely recommend it to beginners or anyone needing a dependable backup gi.
