SanabulEssential Short Sleeve Rash Guard MMA BJJ Wrestling Grappling Jiu Jitsu

I was looking for a short sleeve or sleeveless compression shirt to wear as a rash guard for swimming and scuba diving. I had already ordered and returned shirts from 4 name brand vendors due to either not being happy with the material or the fit (thank goodness for free delivery and return!). I loved the Sanabul look and price (less than most of the others) but was wary having never heard of them before. But having practiced the return process so many times I figured I had nothing to lose and order the purple and black one to match an Oakley bathing suit I recently purchased.The shirt arrived on the day promised. I could see that the color was perfect as I was opening the plastic bag it was packed in. Then I touched the material and it felt great - nice weight; light, but rugged and well made. I shucked my shirt off right in the kitchen and pulled the new one on with the tags intact and my fingers crossed. The material felt amazing on my bare skin and the fit is firm and flattering.I ordered a medium. I'm 5'8" and weigh 144lbs with a 31 inch waist. It's a TINY bit loser in the chest than I would like but otherwise a perfect fit. I loved it so much I ordered a black and blue one the same day to match my dive shorts and wet suit. I can't wait to see how the sharks like it this weekend.

Only rolled in it twice, but I love this rash guard. Seems very durable and is very comfortable. Doesn't get too hot, and fits well with plenty of length so it doesn't bunch up during rolls. I will definitely be buying more

This fits nicely for even a big guy. It holds up well after several months of use/washing.

Fits well. No shrinkage. The only issue I personally had was the sleeves being a but long for a short sleeve and needing to pull them up just a bit. Performs very well.

I've only had this a couple of weeks now, but I'm really pleased with the quality and performance of this rash guard. Perfect amount of stretch, doesn't bunch up when I'm rolling, and is really breathable.Edit 11/17/24: I wear these rash guards 2-3 times a week each and 6 months in I’m happy to report they have held up so well (albeit a little loose due to some weight loss). Just ordered another in a smaller size. I love that they’re slightly looser in the shoulder area while tight enough around the hips to keep from riding up much.

These are great rash guards for bjj for the price. They hold up well. I've been through several rashguards of some of the bigger name brands that cost 2-3 times what these do. These just last. I've got a couple of these that I have been wearing for at least 6 years.

I've had this rash guard now for about 8 months, and I could not be more pleased with it. I initially ordered it because it was so cheap compared to other options, and I had only just begun training BJJ. It fits true to size based on the specifications that were shared by Sanabul in the Q&A here. I'm 5'3" & 170 lbs. The medium is perfect. Clings to the body without being too tight. The design is flattering and the mesh on the sides & underarms allows for great ventilation without being see through. If I had to change anything, I would add elastic or some kind of grip around the hem at the bottom. I usually tuck this rash guard into my shorts or leggings before sparring in order to keep it from riding up. I train often & wash it often, but so far, no signs of wear. Most definitely worth what I paid and more.

I like the material and the feel on my body. Got the right size but the fit on these is extremely weird feeling on the armpits. I know I got the right size and everything because they fit well on my arms and body. Got both short sleeve and long sleeve and both are just weird on the armpit area. Is this just me? I like majority of the stuff I buy from sanabul but I definitely won’t be buying these again. Disappointed.
