Kids BJJ Belts

If your child is planning to start Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, then you will need to acquire an approved uniform for them to wear. Many gyms and training centers for BJJ will not allow people to train unless they are wearing all of the essential BJJ clothing. Included with a BJJ gi set is a kimono top, long pants, and kids bjj belt. The kids bjj belts are important for several reasons. The belt is responsible for keeping the loose bottom of the kimono top tied. The kids bjj kimono top is typically a large and loose piece of clothing. But the Elite youth bjj belt ensures the gi fits more tightly around your child’s body, reducing the amount of loose fabric an opponent could grab onto.

BJJ Kids Belts

Typically, kids bjj gis and belts come together as a full set. But your child might want a belt of a certain length or wear a color that best reflects their current skill level. At Elite Sports, you will find the most versatile selection of kids belts for BJJ available at low, affordable prices.

What Are Elite Sports Kid Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Belts Made Of?

Elite Sports kids BJJ belts are constructed from 100% cotton fabric. The cotton has a comfortable and lightweight feel that makes it easy to tie the belt around your child’s waist. When your child is fighting, they will be able to move freely, whether standing or on the ground.

The belt is built with durable reinforced stitching to ensure the ends don’t fray. Even after the belt is pulled several times during training, it will not easily come apart. Because the belt is made of pre-shrunk fabric, you do not have to worry about the belt becoming smaller after going through the washer and dryer.

Kid Jiu-Jitsu Belts Colors

Kids often like to wear belts with their favorite colors or that represent their current skill level. If your child is no longer a novice and has moved past the white belt rank, you can choose from several colors.

The belts come in the following primary colors: white, gray, yellow, green, and orange. For the colors besides white, they can also come with additional designs, such as with a white or black stripe.

Youth BJJ Belts Sizes?

Because kids who get into BJJ can vary in age and size, Elite Sports made sure to provide the BJJ belts in multiple sizes. The belts can come in sizes C000 to C3. The higher the number, the longer the belt will be. The shortest BJJ belt provided for kids is 72 inches or 183 centimeters. The longest BJJ belt has a length of 98 inches or 250 centimeters. If you need help figuring out the size belt your child will need, you can check the size chart of each color option.
