what color gi do you wear and do you know the reason for this color

 

I'll bite. What's the reasoning behing a white gi (which is what I wear)?

White, but you should also have put red on there becuse they are probably the third most popular colour of Gi.

 

purple?

my current school you either have to wear all white or white bottom/black top. i think my favorite uniform ever, though, was one of those chinese shirts with the frog buttons, which was green, and black pants. it was the most comfortable, and the blasted thing stayed closed, unlike the japanese gi tops :evil: also, it was green, so i could represent irish pride :wink:

I like to wear the black gi top with black pants. We have the option of wearing all white or mixing the colours, but it's not usually done.

 

We have different 'clubs' in the school, like the Black Belt Club, Master's Club, SWAT Team and Instructors Assistants. There are different colours for the uniforms in each of these ranging from red top w black pants w red stripes; blue slash top w black or blue pants; and of course the different patches sewn on the gi tops. It's actually quite cool and doesn't make the classes boring with all white gi's. The different coloured belts also add some colour.

 

For outside tournaments, all white gi's are the norm.

 

For Judo, I wore all white, with different colour belts.

I only wear a gi for judo which is either white or blue. Blue was instituted for competition to allow easier judging of matches as two judoka can quickly turn into a intertwined blob of arms and legs. Thankfully a judoka must wear a gi of one colour, never mixing the top and bottom.
