'The Zen' Jersey

Part of the APEX Predator Series — our performance and fightwear line. Deep dusty red base, mint green APEX logo on the chest with the Japanese kanji 禅 (Zen) set alongside it. "Zen. Peaceful and calm." printed small in the centre back. Clean, minimal, and quieter than most things we make.

The details:

• Lightweight, moisture-wicking polyester. Built to breathe through long sessions.
• Velcro-resistant — holds up to rashguards, gi cuffs, and the occasional rogue strap.
• Super-stretch fabric with full range of motion.
• Fine mesh panels down the sides for airflow.
• Raglan sleeves, ribbed collar, regular fit.
• Sublimated graphics — won't peel, won't fade, won't crack.
• Woven APEX label on the inside neck, external woven label with Designed in the Lowlands. Reach the apex with us. Fighters are the new creatives.

The story: The design started with a Japanese poster that caught our eye — dusty red, mint green, nothing else. No illustration, no slogan, just two colours doing a lot of work. We kept the same restraint: the APEX mark, the kanji, one small line of text, and that's it. The result reads calm even though the colours are bold — which is what Zen actually means. Not empty. Focused.

Who it's for: Training, drilling, competition warm-ups, the walk to the gym. Works well for the session where you want to show up without the graphics doing the talking for you.

Care: Cold wash, inside out, max 40°C. Standard performance-wear care.

The Kit: Designed to pair with 'The Zen' Fightshorts as a full kit. Available together or separately.
