I'm in Canada and would love to find one in this area it it's possible. I am hoping to of lost more weight by the end of the summer but I really do want to get a gi soon. Any suggestions?

SaiFightsMS Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Try a pro force 8. The cotton poly blend it will not shrink the way all cotton ones do. Failing that you will need to go with the more expensive brand from the Dragon Times. (I can't come up with the name right now.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacificshore Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 Sai, I think you are thinking of the Meijin gi that Dragon times distributes. Also another place to look at is https://www.juka.com . They make a woman's cut gi called the Diamond. Check it out, it may be what you are looking for, rather than having to buy any other brand, and have many alterations done.
