Coloured belts
Black, white or black-and-white shirt with at least 10% in the belt colour, visible front and back. 100% belt colour also allowed.
Black belt
Shirt predominantly black (over 50%). Only secondary colour: white, plus a small red area (no fully red sleeves).
Rash guard: general rule
Elastic, body-fitting shirt long enough to cover the waistline of the shorts. No other colours allowed except team/brand logos.
