Buying a new gi

[shukokai2000]

i know of a couple of shops in Manchester that sell Gi's, you may get it trade if you ask them

Where abouts and which one's? I know of one in manchester at piccadilly.

Thanks Brandon for that info, i think i am leaning towards a kamizaki gi.

The one you know about is

Van Dang Martial arts in Piccadilly

the others are south(ish) Manchester which are

NWS which is on Barlow road Cholton

Community karate shop which is on the A6 between Manchester and Stockport (Heaton Chaple area)

used to be a very cheap one on kingsway but moved to Bradford a few months ago.

There is one at Trafford Bar (Old Trafford)but not sure if it sell GI's.

All of the above do sell Gi's but not sure what make, as a tip ask your sensei if you can represent your Dojo and get a trade list from the shop, it will save you a lot....

hope this is of some help ?

what part of Manchester are you from? , we are south

Cheers for that info. I had no idea there was one on the a6, i know the area very well. I'm not in manchester exactly, im in stockport, which is not to far.

I've heard great things about the Kamikaze brand (Tokon here in the USA). I am partial to Tokaido myself. Since I focus on Kata, I prefer at least a 14 oz. 12oz are good too if you are stepping up.

Good luck

If your passing through Monday eve's pop in to my Dojo, it's Shukokai though not Shotokan, but from same parent shito ryu... If not just for the fitness we do some good drill.
