tigerclaw.com

and shureido.com

tigerclaw is about 45 bucks for a really nice heavyweigth gi.

shureido is around 150.00 i think., but i've heard that your paying a lot for the brand as well.

i think you'll like the tigerclaw. thats what we use in our dojo and the heavyweights are sweet.

A high quality Shureido superheavyweight dogi is over $200. Tokaido dogi are very good quality. There is also a custom company called Satori. satorigi.com is their website I believe. That is where I got my dogi from. I can say that I like the one that I have very much. Good quality, very durable. 15 oz canvas material I believe. It was around $150 I believe.

Actually, with Shureido you aren't paying for the brand, you pay about 100 dollars in shipping fees by the time it finally reaches you. Shureido gi aren't that expensive at all if you're in Okinawa.

Tokaido are good.
