Menjo Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Just a quick question actually, I was wondering if anyone takes company lableing off their gi when they get it? I do, although I'm not sure exactly why. "Time is what we want most, but what we use worst"William Penn
stoneheart Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 I don't. Seems like unnecessary work to me. I'm happy to publicize the companies that sell merchandise I actually use. Hopefully others will buy their gear too and keep them in business, so I can readily find a replacement when I need one.

jaymac Posted February 8, 2006 Posted February 8, 2006 I leave the logos. They aren't really large enough to overpower the gi or belt. Actually, I hadn't ever thought of taking them off before. Maybe I should go look at one right now to decide if I should have all along A great martial artist is one who is humble and respectful of others.
strangepair03 Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 My luck I would tear my gi's up trying to remove them!!!! A punch should stay like a treasure in the sleeve. It should not be used indiscrimately.Kyan Chotoku Sensei
aefibird Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 I don't take them off. The logo's/lables are so small that they make very little impact on the gi itself. Plus, the MA companies that I use are all high-quality, so I have no problems with "advertising" their brand on my uniform. "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..."

I know people who've tried it and were told that they couldn't due to company policy.
lordtariel Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 I don't simply beacuse I don't particularly care about it. When I get to the point of having a really nice tournament one, I might consider it though. There's no place like 127.0.0.1
marie curie Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 As for a Karate Gi- I keep the logo on, because it is usually on the bottom of my left side, reminding me which goes on the outside when putting it on.... in my arts we get made fun of for being dead if we do it the wrong way...As for Judo Gi, they are usually pretty smalland Jiu-Jitsu.... well, they are supposed to have patches all over them You suck-train harder.......................Don't block with your faceA good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving. -Lao Tzu
