Thanks Bulltahr! I wear the traditional pants that I own, they just do not seem to fit as well.

JR - thanks for responding. In regards to your questions: European cut generally refers to longer sleeves and pants. In comparison to a Japanese cut which is 3/4 length sleeves and pant legs. Weight of the material - I think 10 or 12 oz would be good. I tend to be on the warmer side. I think a 14+ oz Gi might be too heavy. I am willing to spend $100 a $200 for the Gi. I had thought that the higher end Gis probably would not come in an elastic waist. I mentioned it because so far the traditional waist pants I have do not fit very well. However, that may be a function of a poorly designed Gi.

I am new to the forum and I apologize as I am sure this topic has been brought up in previous posts. I am looking to purchase a new Gi - black (the color my club uses), European cut preferably, and with an elastic waist if possible. My first Gi was a century student Gi, very light weight and not particularly well made. I have followed it with an adidas Gi and a Tiger Claw Gi, both which are OK. I was hoping to find a Gi I really like this time. I am 6’1 and weigh approximately 205 lbs. Any recommendations are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
