I love the design of this rash guard. It offers a great blend of a cool, fashionable design on the sleeve whilst being fairly subtle in the other 80% of the top. It makes a nice change from the Tatami tops, which are the most popular in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at the moment and that have huge, bold, graphics across the whole shirt. The dragon design is nice and clear with the overall floral pattern looking really high quality. The white LAFROI logo on the wrist of the opposite sleeve I'm not too crazy about. It's made of a different material to the rest of the shirt and in Jiu Jitsu it may be frowned upon as could offer a little grip to either me or my opponent depending on the position. It's nothing too extreme, but noticeable. For most sports it won't be an issue.
Looking through the reviews, many people were suggesting that you order a size down. I was actually between sizes - the size guide said at 80KG I was a medium/large. That said, I'm pretty top heavy, with a larger chest and not so large legs. I ordered the medium on the basis of many reviews saying to size down and when it arrived it was far too tight for me. Although I could get it on, I found my shoulders and back aching after a short while where the compression was too tight. As such, I returned the medium for a large and found it a much better fit for me (again, I'm 80kg and around 5'10 - top heavy frame). I'd say that if you have a thick build, unless you want/need a skin tight fit then do consider sizing up if you're near the tipping point of sizes.
The fit of the shirt once I got the right shirt was quite nice. I personally liked the fact that you have a tight chest/shoulders, but the length of the arms and torso means there's a bit of looseness there. Although I picked this up for Jiu Jitsu where you do want the rash guard to be fairly tight, I think this little bit of give is perfectly fine and helps a lot with comfort and mobility.
I would say that the materials the shirt is made from are thicker than some rash guards, which I think is why the 'skin tight' fit isn't the most comfortable and I personally preferred to go a little looser via a bigger size. Once I got a size I was happy with though, I really loved the fit and feel.
Overall, this is a superb rash guard for the price. I really love the design and once I got the sizing right the fit and feel is perfect too.
