Equipment for sports and combat sambo: how to choose, how much it costs

A regular jacket can be washed in a washing machine. We are talking about everyday windbreakers, demi-season and winter jackets insulated with padding polyester, and down jackets. In order not to throw away your favorite item later, you need to know the specifics of how to wash a jacket in an automatic washing machine.

Attention! The first step is to check the label, which shows signs indicating the correct handling of the item. Usually the symbol of washing is a bowl of water. Crossed out - cannot be washed, you need to go to the dry cleaner. An uncrossed basin with water and a hand immersed in it means “hand wash only.” But if the numbers in the basin are: 30 or 40 degrees, you can wash it in a machine.

Additional signs will tell you whether it is permissible to press the product by machine, and how to dry it: vertically or horizontally.

What is sambovka

Since this type of martial arts is based on throws and holds, clothing should be loose and not restrict movement. For Sambo training, a special uniform was created that meets the needs of this sport.

A sambo jacket is a sambo jacket, which is a modified kimono. Unlike the Japanese version, the sambo jacket is shorter and less dense, but has reinforced seams and shoulder inserts to withstand grips. There are no buttons, and a belt is provided for fastening. At the front, the sambovka has a wide flap, which is used by wrestlers for grappling.

To participate in competitions, according to the rules of the Sambo Federation, athletes can wear jackets of only two colors - blue and red. In small-scale tournaments, a white jacket is allowed, but with a red or blue belt.

A good option would be a double-sided sambovka, which just needs to be turned out to change the color from blue to red or vice versa. A jacket of any color is suitable for training, but it is better not to use white as it is too easily soiled.

Requirements for sambo from the Rules of the sport “Sambo”

  1. A red and blue sambo jacket of a special cut and a belt for it are made of cotton fabric.
  2. The sleeve of the jacket should reach the hand, the width of the sleeve should provide at least 10 cm of clearance between the arm and the fabric along its entire length.
  3. To thread the belt along the waist line, two slits are made at a distance of 5 cm forward and backward from the side seam.
  4. The belt is threaded through these slots, wraps twice and tightly fits the body, and is tied in front with a knot that fastens both of its turns.
  5. The hem of the jacket should be 25-30 cm below the belt line; the length of the ends of the tied belt cannot exceed the length of the hem of the jacket.

Fabric for sambovkas and its density

For high-quality sambovka, only cotton fabrics are used, since they absorb moisture well and do not impede the flow of air. For greater strength and improved appearance of the jacket, no more than 20% synthetic fibers can be added to it. The texture of the fabric can be of two types: “rice grain” and “herringbone”.

The density of sambo boots is one of the most important characteristics, since the fabric must withstand numerous grips and jerks. Preference is given to ribbed cotton material, the square meter of which weighs at least 500 g/m2, but not more than 700 g/m2. The higher the density, the higher the strength. But the increasing weight of the form should also be taken into account. For training, sambovka made of fabric with a density of 280 g/m2 is suitable for children.

There are several ways to estimate the density of sambovka fabric:

  1. According to the designated category of material density: dense, high density, high density, maximum density, super dense.
  2. Based on the stated weight per square meter of fabric in ounces.
  3. The most common indication of weight per square meter is in grams.

How to choose a sambo jacket

The choice of sambok size is often made taking into account future “shrinkage” after washing. But this should not happen with a jacket made of high-quality material, since the use of fabric with a shrinkage of less than 4% is allowed for sewing clothes. Therefore, if you take it with a reserve, then only in case of expected rapid weight gain or body growth.

It should be remembered that a jacket that is too large will be inconvenient for the fighter himself and will make him more vulnerable to the opponent’s techniques. The margin should not be more than 5 cm. The sizes of sambovkas can be selected according to height (that is, for an athlete with a height of 170 cm, size 170 is suitable).

To choose a high-quality sambovka, you need to pay attention to the following details:

  • the presence of inserts on the shoulders (the so-called wings);
  • special slots for threading a belt;
  • natural cotton lining;
  • the manufacturer's logo is located vertically (horizontally) on the front left side of the sambo jacket at the bottom, to the right of the cut;
  • FIAS conformity mark - at the end (bottom) of the left lapel.

The certified Sambo jacket meets international standards for men's clothing sizing for a standard figure.

Proper care of sambovka

  • When washing by hand, the sambovka should be pre-soaked for about an hour.
  • You should wash sambovka in a washing machine with care, including the delicate wash cycle.
  • Water temperature - up to 30 ⁰C.
  • Squeeze by hand.
  • It is better to dry on a clothes hanger.
  • Iron with an iron heated to 30 ⁰C.
  • When training 3 times a week, the sambovka is washed once a week. If an athlete goes to sambo training every day, then it is recommended to wash the jacket 2 times a week.

You need to fold your jacket so that it does not wrinkle and does not take up much space. To do this, just a few steps are enough:

  1. Lay the jacket out on a flat surface, with the sleeves at right angles.
  2. Straighten and smooth the fabric.
  3. Take the sambovka at the top and bottom and fold it in half, aligning the sleeves.
  4. Place the folded sleeves over the other side of the folded jacket.
  5. Roll the sambovka again, aligning its upper and lower parts.

Caring for wrestling dogs

To clean wrestling shoes, it is recommended to use specialized brushes.

  1. First, go over the wrestling shoes with a suede brush with short, soft bristles.
  2. If the shoes are heavily soiled, the brush is moistened in a special (alcohol-based) cleaning solution.
  3. Then the suede is thoroughly wiped with a dry cloth.
  4. To dry completely, the wrestlers are stuffed with napkins or crumpled newspaper and dried naturally.
  5. Attention! Suede shoes should not be dried near heating appliances.
  6. Oily deposits on wrestling shoes are removed using an eraser brush or a brush with rubber or rubber teeth. If you don’t have such a brush, you can use a school eraser for cleaning.
  7. Heavily contaminated shoes are washed by hand or in a washing machine, placing the racing shoes in a laundry bag, in the “delicate wash” mode. Water temperature - 30 ⁰C.
  8. To prevent unpleasant odors, it is advisable to ventilate your shoes well after training. To do this, unlace the racing shoes, remove the tongue and remove the insole.
  9. Professional shoe care products can help get rid of odors.

Historical reference

Martial arts historian Dave Coffman argues that the emergence and development of martial arts is a long historical process. In his opinion, wrestling originated one hundred and fifty years earlier than boxing. Many experts associate this hypothesis with the time of the appearance of the first sports shoes. This theory has a right to exist. However, if you dig deeper, you will notice that even in the era of Ancient Rome, many gladiators were shod in special shoes, vaguely reminiscent of modern wrestling and boxing shoes.

The main entertainment in Ancient Rome was gladiatorial fights, which took place in the arenas of huge amphitheaters. The fighters were chosen from among slaves, captured soldiers, and criminals. Before competing in the arena, gladiators were trained and then forced to fight each other to the death. Slave gladiators performed barefoot. However, if they fought under the guise of soldiers, then special shoes were included in the mandatory equipment.

Sandals were made from bull or deer skin. The sole was usually made of wood. The top and straps were attached to it, thanks to which the shoes were fixed on the fighters’ feet. Metal shields (the ancestors of modern shingards) were worn over the shoes. In the event of the death of a gladiator, the protective equipment was removed and passed on to the next fighter.

How to lace wrestling shoes for sambo correctly

The sambist selects the type of lacing taking into account his needs. For an athlete, it is important to securely fix the leg, ensure free movement of the ankle, protect vulnerable areas, and not tighten the lacing, so as not to impair blood circulation in the foot.

The most common lacing options:

  • Cross lacing (“criss-to-cross”, “traditional lacing”). The fastest way to tie your shoelaces. Lacing begins with the toe of the racing shoes. The lace is threaded through the lower holes from the inside so that the ends come out. Then they cross from the inside and are threaded into the next pair of holes.
  • External lacing (“lacing from the inside to the outside” ) . The lace is threaded through the bottom holes from the inside, the ends are crossed and pulled into the next pair of holes. Then the ends cross inside and extend outward. Further, external and external crossings alternate.

How to wash suede sneakers in a washing machine?

Same as we described above. It would not be superfluous to treat it after drying with shoe cosmetics for suede and go over it with a special brush for this type of leather.

After finishing washing, the last important step is drying. According to shoe rules, in the summer the sneakers are dried in the sun, and in the winter on the radiator, placing something soft under them. To prevent deformation and maintain the original appearance, shoes must be stuffed with white paper. Just not newspaper! Otherwise, the printing ink will blacken the inside of the sneakers. Rags, toilet paper, in a word, anything that will quickly absorb moisture inside and allow the shoes to dry well and retain their shape can be used as filler.

  • The upper material is natural or elastic wear-resistant artificial leather, the inner materials are Windstopper fabric, nylon, suede.
  • Protective inner layer: material - 100% polyurethane foam, usually one-piece, 12-15 mm thick. There are models in which the occipital part is a separate part. Special overhead or hidden cushions protect the auricle and have a horizontal stripe in the center to protect the eardrum.
  • Fixation system: for reliable positioning of the helmet on the head, fixation systems are provided - parietal, occipital, jaw. Parietal fixation is represented by loops and cords, jaw and occipital fixation by straps and buckles.
  • The FIAS mark of conformity for combat sambo on the helmet is located on the strap of the occipital fixation system, the manufacturer’s logo is in the middle of the frontal part of the helmet.
  • The “FIVE STAR” helmet from the Russian manufacturer Green Hil is certified by the International Sambo Federation and is approved for combat sambo competitions at any level. The price of the model is 7,000 rubles.

Advice. When choosing a helmet, you should pay attention to the following criteria:

  • convenience and comfort. The helmet should not squeeze the head, dangle or block the view;
  • quality of material, seams, internal protective layer.

It is recommended to use helmets with additional ear protection and choose models with thick padding. Before purchasing, you need to measure your head circumference. But in any case, the athlete needs to try on the helmet and evaluate his feelings.

A properly fitted helmet fits tightly, but does not compress the athlete’s head. A helmet for children is not bought for growth.

Care. Proper care of your helmet will extend the life of your protection.

  • Hand wash in soapy water. Rinse under running water. Machine wash at 30 ⁰C, no drying. Dry the helmet with material with good absorbent properties. Dry in a well-ventilated area.
  • After training (competitions), wipe the inside of the helmet with a damp cloth. Leave the protection to dry in a well-ventilated area.
  • To prevent the growth of bacteria, treat the helmet 1-2 times a week with products with antibacterial and disinfectant properties.
  • The helmet should not be stored in a closed plastic bag. This leads to a musty odor and bacterial growth.
  • To prevent deformation of the helmet, do not throw the protection away or leave it in direct sunlight.

Proper drying

Careful preparation of the item, the right mode and the right detergent will not save your favorite jacket if it is not dried correctly. This stage requires special care.

Firstly, the almighty shortcut will tell you whether there are any peculiarities in drying a particular item. On it you can find symbols for vertical or horizontal position, as well as recommendations for using machine drying.

Secondly, you should always take the washed jacket out of the machine right away. Do not leave it overnight. An unpleasant smell is guaranteed to accompany the owner of the item everywhere. And the wet filler cakes quickly.

For some items, the manufacturer does not recommend spinning even manually. In this case, you need to hang the jacket on a rope and place a basin under it. After some time, the water will drain and you can hang the item on hangers.

For thin nylon windbreakers, it is worth choosing hangers according to size. Better - plastic, repeating the shape of the shoulders. A wet item may become deformed at the protruding parts of an unsuitable hanger.

How to dry a down jacket

The down jacket should be wrung out without twisting: the compressed clumps of down will then be difficult to straighten out. Hang on hangers.

The main rule is to shake the item as often as possible during the entire drying time. This will help avoid stagnation and ensure ventilation of the internal filling. Constant hand beating promotes the evaporation of moisture, the jacket “inflates”, filling the space between the feathers with air. Packed lumps of filler disrupt the thermal properties.

Short-term methods will not work here: if you hang a jacket on a radiator, hard, dried lumps will form inside, and a hot, directed jet from a hairdryer will also do harm. The highly heated surface of the iron deforms the upper fabric, which most likely contains synthetic fibers.

Advice! Do not iron a down jacket. Feathers and down will straighten out during wear and provide the correct shape to the product.

Jackets made of holofiber and padding polyester

These materials like to dry vertically with ventilation, allowing air movement from all sides. Dries quickly.

It is not necessary to take contaminated outerwear to the dry cleaner to restore it to its original condition. You can save money by choosing to wash your clothes in an automatic machine at home. In order not to spoil your favorite outerwear, you need to carefully study the information labels and follow simple recommendations on how to wash your jacket. Purity and quality are guaranteed.

Reviews and experiences of athletes

P.S. In order to shed a lot of light on the topic of cleaning shoes using detergents, we have collected discussions from our customers on the topic of washing sneakers.

Denis, creation date Mon, 2010-11-22 23:52. From the real experience of an athlete: I advise you to try Persil gel for washing sneakers.

First coat your sneakers with it. Wait about 10 minutes. Next, send it to the machine. I was extremely pleased with the result.

Author Guest, creation date Mon, 2010-11-22 23:52. I came to this method without the help of others (about using a laundry bag), when my almost fresh sneaker from the Muzino office got caught between the lid of the washing machine and the spinning drum, as a result of which part of the sole was cut off, the sneaker was badly damaged, but still... it served me faithfully and faithfully (now I bought new ones). After that option, I wash my sneakers only in a shoe bag.

Author helloshut, creation date Sat, 2011-04-23 23:23. And I wash sneakers along with other sports items.

Traditionally, when your feet are all dirty, then almost everything else also needs to be washed, and after washing in the shower, you don’t see much dirt, so you don’t have to worry about it.

Author darthex, creation date Thu, 2012-05-03 22:46. I washed it according to the advice here. The first time I used liquid soap and washed it in a bag - the result was zero. I washed it again immediately. Persil powder without any bags. - The result is simply excellent. In both options, I washed it at 30* for 30 minutes on a hand wash without spinning.

Author darthex, creation date Thu, 2012-05-03 22:49. Oh yes, I forgot, the Asics Enduro 7 crosses did not fall apart or deteriorate, they look no worse than fresh ones, and you can’t tell the difference =)

Author Guest, creation date Fri, 2012-08-24 22:58. I wash my sneakers in the machine.

After washing, like new.

Author Grigoriy, creation date Sun, 2012-11-25 13:51. I myself came to the point of washing sneakers in the machine. If I run not on the highway, but through forests and fields, where there is much more dirt, then sometimes every 1.5-2 months I wash my sneakers in the car. For 700 km in 2 years, it is normal for you to wash your sneakers with soap. For huge sizes, you need to either wash them or change the sneakers for fresh ones, because... they ring specifically.

Author Guest ira, creation date Wed, 2014-10-15 22:05. I just washed my son’s Adidas sneakers.

Indesit machine. I put it in a pillowcase, threw in an old towel and a rug. At first I set it to “sports shoes” mode. Halfway through, the car stopped... Here I almost lost my mind - I feel sorry for the car, and the sneakers are not cheap, and in general... a woman’s panic. But I switched to the short wash mode. We stretched and did push-ups, like little ones!!! I only advise you to leave more rags. They wring out well, but when washing, the bag with shoes dangles and rattles quite noticeably.

We do it the old fashioned way: digestion

There is another proven method for whitening gray or yellowed socks. Turn on the stove and start cooking. There are three ways to boil white socks.

Method No. 1

  1. Dissolve five tablespoons of baking soda and two tablespoons of ammonia in five liters of heated water.
  2. Dip the socks into the container and “cook” them for 20-30 minutes.
  3. After this, all that remains is to rinse the clean product in water.

Method number 2

  1. Add sliced ​​lemon slices (at the rate of one slice per liter of water), crushed pieces of laundry soap or a handful of washing powder to boiling water.
  2. Using tongs or a wooden stick, dip the prepared items into the lemon-soap solution.
  3. Boil for 10-15 minutes.
  4. At the end of the procedure, rinse your socks.

Method number 3

  1. Boil five liters of water in a saucepan with one sliced ​​lemon.
  2. Boil the citrus for no more than five minutes and remove.
  3. Place pre-washed white socks in acidified water.
  4. Boil them for 20-25 minutes.
  5. You don’t have to rinse your clothes; the socks will have a delicate lemon scent.

“Hot” methods are only suitable for bleaching cotton socks. For synthetics and delicate materials, never heat the water above 30°C, but the soaking time in this case can be increased to three hours. The boiling procedure is also contraindicated for woolen products: under the influence of high temperatures they shrink significantly.

First lesson.

What should you take?

photo from the website https://sambo.ru

So, you preferred sambo to all other martial arts, perhaps you have already met a coach and even attended several classes. During classes, you could see that part of the group was training in blue kimonos, another part in burgundy ones, and some even in snow-white ones. Be that as it may, you will also need to purchase a special uniform for sambo training - a jacket or kimono. If 10-15 years ago sambo jackets were a drawback and fighters mainly trained in judo kimonos, now it is not so difficult to purchase a sambo jacket.
