Ladies. I`m having problems keeping my Gi white. We all perspire a tad during training, but even when my Gi is clean it looks a bit minging.

If your Gi doesn't have any cloured stripes, badges etc on it then i'd try bleach.

Now i can't remember what it is my mum used to use on sweat marks, something which i thought was absolutely rediculous but it actually worked,.. don't quote me on this but I *think* it was vinegar :? ,.. doubt it would do any harm if it isn't the right thing, just remember to wash it out or yoou realy will stink :-))

Thanks for the suggestion. I`ll try vinegar on a small area first. If it doesn`t work i will add some tomato sauce and eat the damn thing. I will let you know the results.

I never had trouble with sweat stains, but whenever I got a new belt it would leave a ring about my uniform. I use oxyclean and it takes all the stripes out of it. I know it's safe because I have embroydering and badges on it and they still look fresh.
