93brand designed their original "Goose OG" as a nod to the part of history that planted the seed for our love of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to grow here in the US. Speaking, of course, about the display at UFC 1 back in 1993, wherein combat sports fans - the ones lucky enough to find a decent footage of the PPV - watched as a not-so-intimidating Brazilian guy handled much larger opponents in "no rules" fights. Personally, I remember my older cousins telling me about how Bloodsport was now real-life. One by one they surrendered to his superior tactics and style. The unfamiliar style and Royce's success got a lot of us curious about this obscure art. Is it Brazilian? Is it Japanese? "Royce" sounded like a white guy name so me, personally, even more confused. But it set the stage for Jiu Jitsu's popularity today, and without it I'm sure many of us would not have found the so-called Gentle Art. But the use of unbleached natural-color cotton along the collar made the original Goose OG illegal for IBJJF competition. So here we have the updated 2020 IBJJF approved edition of, one of 93's strongest and most resilient Jiu Jitsu Gis. Specs include:
