These premium lined board shorts feature a lightweight, durable outer shell engineered for movement, breathability, and all-day comfort.
At the core is a built-in compression shorts liner—providing secure coverage, moisture-wicking performance, and confidence through every scramble, drill, and round.

Durable. Comfortable. Built to perform.
Available in youth sizes YXS–YXL.
Artwork
These specialty kids' board shorts feature graphics designed exclusively for Gaidama by world renowned artist Meerkatsu. Each piece is a playful rendition of a Jiu Jitsu Circus, including trapeze artists performing arm bars and heel hooks, a balancing strong man on a unicycle getting arm barred from a triangle position, a pair of clowns throwing down a Harai Goshi, a lion tamer applying the Mata Leão AKA a Rear Naked Choke, a tiger winning a side control pin, and a bear preparing to finish a Kimura on a third clown. Highly detailed line shading and coloring reminiscent of vintage circus posters pair with a big top background, ombre effects, and illuminated carnival-style marquee lettering in this fun, original, and artistic masterpiece by the legendary graphics designer, Meerkatsu.
