Revgear have just given us a sneak-preview of their brand new gear, the Grizzly product line. It’s a full set of no gi grappling gear; including shorts, rashguards, and even compression pants as well. After spending two years developing this line with some incredible grapplers, they’re confident in calling it ‘top of the food chain’ and they’re ready to release it to the world. We’ve spoken to Revgear brand director Alex Wright before and his passion for the equipment he creates was obvious right from the start; so no doubt a lot of blood, sweat, and tears went in to the design-process.
Revgear are returning to their California roots with the branding as well, as the new line is named after the grizzly bear and it features prominently on the equipment. Wright has also let us know a little about how the equipment was designed too, explaining that Revgear have looked back through all of their older lines and combined that experience with modern materials to put together the best products possible. We’ve already had the opportunity to do a full review of Revgear’s previous no gi products and the results were great back then, but it looks as though they’ve managed to improve things even more this time around.
Revgear have made several big improvements for the Grizzly line, with the shorts in particular undergoing some huge changes. They’ve eliminated velcro entirely and introduced a rubberized non-slip strip on the inside, while maintaining the use of very strong material. The rashguards will be a welcome addition for female grapplers too, as they’ve paid attention to getting the fit just right and they will be available in multiple colours. The compression pants are essentially completely new too, as they took inspiration from popular Crossfit brands by using much tougher material than the majority of options available on the combat sports market and triple-reinforced stitching to improve durability even further.
The Grizzly line of products will all be available soon at www.revgear.com or www.revgeareurope.co.uk, and you can drop code Jits20 into the checkout for 20% off.
