Shureido Gi and Adidas Shoes

[mattys]

Well, my with my Christmas list being complete and ordered, I decided to brag and ask. I ordered a Shureido MIDDLE weight (not heavy) black gi, and a pair of Adidas TKD-2000 Martial Art shoes. I'm alright with the thought of the mat shoes, but I am somewhat concerned about the Shureido gi. I know wonderful things about Shureido, and I have heard the hype about the Shureido heavyweight gi, but nothing about the middle, and I hope that I'm not disappointed.

 

Anyone here with a middleweight Shureido gi?

It's an excellent middle weight do-gi. The fabric lasts well, hangs beautifully and has all the quality characters of the heavyweight do-gi (of course, with an exception of the thickness and weight of the fabric).

 

It will serve you well and last for a long time.

The Addidas shoes I got tied only at the top of the arch, ie no laces, just a tie. Very inadequate (I really goofed).

 

They also stretched immmensly within a week so my feet slide all over the place.

 

AND, they are really hot. Argghhh!

 

(Can ;yo tell I really don't like them???)
