Per Manufacture- Rethink Your Rashguard. You hear a lot about moisture wicking shirts, now feel the difference of moisture repelling shirts. While most rash guards are designed to keep your sweat away from your body, they do very little to keep your training partner’s sweat off of you. The SPRAWL Repeller does just that. The Repeller fabric is treated at the fiber level so that it never absorbs moisture making it sweat and blood repellent. This also makes for a very fast drying garment. These properties make the SPRAWL Repeller especially well designed for contact sports such as grappling and wrestling. This Repeller fabric is soft, comfortable and breathable with a little bit of stretch. It has an athletic cut making it not too loose and not too tight. The new SPRAWL repeller is a unique advancement to traditional rashguards. This enhancement makes them the perfect protective garment for grapplers and MMA athletes.

First Impression- When I first pulled this rashguard out I noticed that it was nice and thick. I also like the fact that it had very small logos and a clean look to it. Also the seams were well done and felt like it was going to be durable.

Construction- The feel of this rashguard is unlike any other I have. Most feel like spandex where as this one just has a nice soft feel to it. It is made out of 100% nylon and has excellent stretching ability. It is made here in the United States so of course that’s going to be a pro for it. All stitching is done very well and has no loose threads. The one and only logo it has however is screen printed so we will see how long that lasts.

Fit- The fit of this rashguard is good. Unlike most rashguards which are skin tight this one has more of a loose feel to it which I liked. I ended up going with a medium which is perfect causing it to not be too loose. It stays in place well and as long as it is tucked in your shorts does not ride up. One thing I did notice however is I could definitely notice I was wearing it. Not in an annoying way just could always feel it moving with me. I did mange to stay fairly cool and not over heat like I have with some of the skin tight rashguards I own.

Stand up- This rashguard works excellent in the stand up game. It allows plenty of range of motion and really feels very natural while wearing it. Something I noticed about it is how fast it dries. I could easily have this thing soaked and it a matter of 10 minutes would be almost completely dry again. The repeller fabric does exactly what it says it does, and because of the fact that it is a loose fit rashguard it did not rid up of shift at all.

Ground- I really got to see what this rashguard was all about once I used it for ground work. Normally when wearing a rasguard on the ground it becomes soaking wet both you and your partners sweat. Well it did get wet with my partners sweat but only on the outside. I could actually see the beads of sweat that would appear on the outside of the rashguard. Now while I would think that would make it not breath so well I would be wrong. Keeps me just the right temperature. It felt good while wearing it but like I said before I could feel it was there. That is the one place where the tight fitting rashguards have this one beat. Other then that it did not ride up or shift.

Pros-

*Excellent Construction

*Quick drying

*Good fit

Cons-

*Screen Printed logo

*Plain looks could be bad to some

Overall- This is an excellent rashgaurd. If you are in the market for a new one or are just looking to add another piece of gear to your collection this is definitely a product I can recommend. The price of this rashgaurd is about $53.

First Impression- I pulled this rashguard out of the box and was immediately impressed by how it looked. I took it out of the plastic that it came in and the material is very soft and seemed thicker than other rashguards that I have. Looks great and I cant wait to try it. I also really enjoyed the japanese theme throughtout this rashguard.

Fit and Finish- I wear a shirt size medium so that is the size of the rashguard that I got and either my body is sized weird or the rashguard is. I found it to be quite tight on my arms and upper body but looser around my waist and stomach. However the quality and finish of this rashguard are top notch. No threads out of place or loose and the stitching is very high quality. I also noticed this rashguard is longer then most that I have which I think is a good thing as you could get a good tuck into your shorts with out it rolling or creeping up on you. All of the graphics are sub laminated but they seem to be even deeper in to material then most so I highly doubt that they are going to crack or peel.

Stand up- For stand up this rashguard works excellent. Not only did it stay where it is suppose to it did a very good job of wicking away moisture. I also found that it kept my body just the right temperature as some rashguards I have used in the past have caused me to over heat due to either thickness or how breathable the material is. The more I use this rash guard the more I like it.

Ground- This rashguard also works very well on the ground. Once again does an excellent job of wicking away moisture. On the ground it did creep up a little but nothing that I could not deal with and I did not ever have to re-tuck it. I also decided to wear this under a gi and for the most part kept me from getting gi burn. While under the gi it did an excellent job of keeping me just the right temperature.

Pros-

High Quality

Very Breathable material

Good moisture wicking

Sub laminated graphics 

Cons-

Weird Sizing

Overall- I really liked this rashguard and other than the odd sizing it is an excellent product. If you are looking for a rashguard at the top of food chain then I would give this one a try. This is definitely a product I would recommend. The price for this is around $60.
