Girls' grappling gear?

I love alliteration.

Has anybody seen grappling clothes - particularly shorts - made for women? I've done some looking, and can't find anything, and I tried on guys' grappling shorts, which are totally not going to work. I don't want any funky padding in odd locations, I just want them to fit properly.

I really don't want to try to make something like that, because I dislike sewing non-formal clothes for myself.

Sprawls should work fine. They don't have padding anywhere.

Wear the BJJ gi to your judo class and watch everyone be all "WTF????"

Edit: Just checked again. It's a gold weave. Buy it anyway because gold weave blows away 90% of Judo gis on the market based solely on the fact they can't mummify you with the sleeves.

I tried on several different brands of shorts in town, I'm not sure whether or not sprawls were one of them. None of them fit me properly, all were either too gigantic or too tight somewhere. I think you're not supposed to have hips, for the fit.

ATM, I'm not in the market for another gi. Mine doesn't fit great, but it's workable.

I still do play soccer, and I don't particularly want to wear through/rip all of my soccer stuff, like I'm currently doing to it.

I've worn a thong to grapple ... not something I care to repeat in this lifetime. :P

They don't sell sprawl shorts in stores, AFAIK.

These remarks are not even funny in jest anymore.

ICY particularly likes how the pink complements the David Boreanaz patch on the back of his gi (NOT GAY).
