Good place to look for cheap rashguards?

So just to clarify, is it acceptable to hang dry a rashguard worn on say Tuesday, until a class on Friday, wear it, then wash it with a second rashguard worn on Wednesday and Saturday?

Or one wear, one wash is the norm? The UA I have now doesn't really stink after class, but I'm thinking wash it for the bacteria and the like.

I am not sure why I was quoted in the same post as your question... because it has nothing to do with what I said...
 
Check out surfing shops. $20 or so. F getting robbed on a $60 rash guard because it's for "MMA".

Just got a quiksilver rashguard for $20 and it feels great! The feel, fit, material, and movement feels better than most of my compression shirts. Plan on getting a few more for sure. Based on reviews I will second the notion to go size up if between sizes.

Only complaint which I figured beforehand is the collar is a bit high so you definitely look like your about to go surfing. I ended up just folding it in and it seems to stay that way during training; and looks better. Might put 2-3 stitches in for it to stay put.
 
Back 3 weeks ago, I picked up 2 Knuklehead Fightwear Rash guards at Kinji San in Brooklyn. They were like $25 - $30. They also fit the best out of the Fuji & Manto rash guards they have.

You would have to call them.
 
Second the surf shops, my favorite rashies are a Volcom, O'Neil, Asics and Scramble for the long torso and 3/4 sleeve. Nike Pro is also good. All of those rashies (with the exception of Scramble) were $20 or less.

For the most part they are all the same stuff. I won't pay over $35 for a rashie and even then I feel like it's a luxury item since the Scramble is specifically designed for rolling...
 
I get Under Armour and the like (my favorite is a Nike I got for $17) on clearance at TJ Maxx. Never had a problem.
 
Hi ,

We have older style Atama rash guards that are on sale now.
Plus, sherdoggers get a 10 % discount.

Thanks,

QUOTE=Traum77;66088709]I've been getting by with an Under Armour heat-something-or-other as my under-gi rashguard for BJJ for the last couple weeks now, but washing it after every class is, I'm sure, shortening its lifespan.

So I figure I should invest in a few other rashguards. Is there an online store that specializes in these, so I can try a few different price points and see what works best? I'm ordering a new Gi in the coming weeks too, but all the rashguards on the sites I've gone to are either extremely expensive (over $60) or out of stock.

Any other pointers regarding rashguard purchases would be appreciated too. I'm pretty much a newbie.[/QUOTE]
 
Do you guys prefer longsleeve or shortsleeve rashguards?
 
I use a short sleeve, but Im noob and I notice other ppl and instructor use long sleeve.

any reason why? I suppose arm movement on the mat.
 
I generally use long sleeve for more protection either under the gi or under a t-shirt (for no-gi and standup training).

I used to buy lots of Under Armor and even Everlast "compression" shirts which do nicely as moisture wicking, but the durability was not there.

Now I have dedicated rashies from MMA brands like Nogi, Rupture, and Manto. They seem to hold up a lot better, especially with all the rubbing and stretching that will happen to them while doing bjj.
 
Yeah, I'm just an idiot. Disregard.

You are also kinda rude,loads of people have made suggestions in here to help and I don't recall you saying 'Thanks' to anyone.:(
