Our verdict

A long-sleeve rash guard for grappling and no-gi training, in 85% polyester and 15% spandex with a rubber waistband. Tatami makes it in belt colours for jiu-jitsu; under MMA it is a training top, not competition kit.

Tatami's ranked long-sleeve rash guard is made from 85% polyester and 15% spandex. It has an inside rubber waistband to keep it in place. It is sold in white, blue, purple, brown and black, plus orange and green in sizes XS to M. Tatami does not state whether the fit is compression.

Tatami makes it as a ranked top for no-gi jiu-jitsu and calls it "IBJJF legal", which is the manufacturer's own claim. Belt-colour rules are a jiu-jitsu requirement: MMA has no belt ranks. Amateur MMA rules require a short-sleeved top in your corner colour (IMMAF rules 2021, section 15; UWW Article 1.2), so this long-sleeve top is for training.

Best suited to

MMA and no-gi trainees of any level who want a long-sleeve top for grappling rounds.

Consider skipping if

You need a top for an amateur MMA bout: those rules require short sleeves in your corner colour. You want a short-sleeve top for MMA striking sessions (see the Venum Contender). You want a stated compression fit (see the RDX T15).

Why we rated it this way

Comfort (3): a confirmed rubber waistband, but no fit or seam detail.

Materials & Construction (3): Tatami states an 85% polyester, 15% spandex fabric, the usual build for a rash guard.

Value (3): A mid-range price for a polyester-spandex top with a rubber waistband, which is what rash guards at this price normally offer. Its belt-rank colours are for jiu-jitsu and aren't a requirement in MMA.
