I normally buy stuff from ebay shops. But the brand is normally Blitz.

I usually shop at karatediscounts.com or karatedepot.com

karatediscounts seem to have better prices, karatedepot better shipping ($2.95 on all orders) so i usually compare karatediscounts price with shipping with karatedepot price with shipping.

Most of my stuff is a mixture of different companies - Blitz, Century, Macho, Dae Do, Mooto, Top Ten, Meijin, Masuta.

I've found Dae Do to be about the best for foam/vinyl gear, but they're all pretty similar. Blitz is good for leather gloves.

i like the turtle masterline gloves there really good for sparring in class and they provide alot of protection to your opponent

I think the foam gear from Century does not last long enough. The C-gear from Century is not bad. Last long and really delivers a blow in that it doesnt give like the foam gear.
