Kimonos Akira is a Brazilian brand from Rio de Janeiro that has its roots in the long-standing martial arts uniform workshop Corpo São. Since 1995, the factory has specialized in producing heavy-duty gis for judo, karate, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, gaining more than 15 years of experience before officially launching its own label, Akira. This background gives the brand a foundation of craftsmanship and reliability that has carried into its dedicated BJJ product line. Akira was established in the 2010s with the goal of providing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioners with affordable yet durable kimonos manufactured on professional-grade industrial machines. The company combines traditional knowledge with modern production standards, ensuring that its gis can withstand the rigors of daily training and competition. Reinforced seams, strong collars, and fabrics designed for longevity are key features across the catalog. The brand’s lineup includes gis for adults, women, and kids, offering a wide range of fits and sizes to support the growing BJJ community in Brazil. In addition to training uniforms, Akira produces streetwear such as t-shirts and hoodies, further extending its identity beyond the academy. With over two decades of manufacturing history, Akira represents a bridge between Brazil’s martial arts tradition and today’s evolving jiu-jitsu culture. The brand’s commitment to quality, affordability, and inclusivity has made it a reliable choice for practitioners seeking gear that reflects both durability and heritage.
