The delivery!!

Having purchased this uniform late on a friday evening, I was given a delivery time of 3-5 working days. Expecting this to mean an arrival some time between wednesday and friday at the earliest, I was shocked and pleased that this parcel arrived on the tuesday morning, ((the same time as an amazon next day delivery ordered at the same time)).

The Parcel

The parcel was in a plastic parcel bag, and the uniform came in a second product bag. It all looked well created and well formed.

The Uniform itself

The uniform didn’t have a plastic peg tag or any tag damaging the fabric and no holes or marks from such tags. It came folded in good condition.

As it comes down to it the uniform itself is very light, I would say only a tiny bit heavier than the “Lightweight” Gi worn by some tournament fighters to lighten their movements. The fabric is thin but tough.

One small thing I noticed is that the trousers seem to have a slightly lower than normal groin, a low groin is common in karate suits for the flexibility in the uniform for kicking, but this pair of trousers seemed lower than normal, with a short inside leg, however they were the right length and were not uncomfertable or awkward in the slightest.

The trial run…

I took this uniform out for a three hour trial run at my dojo, including light contact sparring training, and self defence grabbing training… it’s only been out once but there were 0 problems so far.

4/5

As I said it’s a bit lighter than I expect, and the trousers are not exactly as my other uniforms. But considering it costs 1/3 the cost of my normal supplier, I am very pleased.
