Starting in 2009, the IBJJF mandated that all participants in IBJJF sanctioned no-gi tournaments had to wear IBJJF approved uniforms.
The IBJJF does not mandate that you buy any of these products specifically, you can wear any rashguard that is composed of your belt color and your shorts must be black. However, buying these pre-approved shorts and rashguards will eliminate any possible confusion and resulting disqualification.
