ProforcePro Force Gladiator Judo Gi/Uniform - Bleached White - Size 2

I'm giving five stars because you really get your money's worth.For less than fifty dollars, you get the whole set: top, pants, and even a white belt.The fabric for the top and the belt is rather thin, but sturdy enough for the job. The quality/price ratio is very good. It won't last forever - what does? - but it sure looks like it won't tear anytime soon.I also appreciate that there is no big logo taking all the space in the back, like on some pricier models. I don't want to be a walking advertisement for a brand.The pants look great in my opinion. There are two "belt hoops" on the front to hold the string. I wish there was an additional one right in the middle, but it is not a big deal. Some customers reported that there is no reinforcing at the knees. The pants that I have receiving do have it.I am 6'5" and I have ordered size 7 because I have read that it shrinks a lot. As expected, it was a bit too big for me, but not so much: the pants' rims reach my heels, without touching the floor, and the top's sleeves rest slightly on my hands when I extend my arms. I have washed the top only once for now, warm water, then machine dried it (it did not visibly damage it by the way), and... it did not noticeably shrink at all. Also, I am very skinny so the whole thing looks a bit too wide, but it is not a problem at all during practice. The belt is long (again, I'm skinny and this is size 7), but not so long that it looks ridiculous.I am very pleased overall. I would buy it again. Hope it helps.

I have to say that it was very hard for me to find a Gi that fits well. Actually it will be almost imposibile. In this case I decided to go with ProForce which has the best price. Let me tell you this is an excellent Gi. I used it in both Judo and BJJ classes for 3 months now and is very good quality. The pants didn't break like other reviewers posted. That could also be because they are a larger fit on me but the material is lighter and let's you be flexible.I'm 5'10", 158lbs fit built. I first ordered a size 4 and I was floating in it so ordering a larger size not good. I then re-ordered a size 3 and this is much better. Pants are still pretty large but you can adjust that easily. The length is perfect. The top part is also good at the shoulders however after I washed it in cold water and air dried it the sleeves come pretty short now. This is actually good because the opponents can't grab your sleeve easily. Even the instructor said that is very smart.Highly recommend!

Great material. My one hesitation when buying a "judo" gi is to see if it is the right material for Judo. Some say they are "Judo" but are not thick enough. That was what I was worried about, but I was delightfully surprised to see that this gi is both thick enough and lightweight. I haven't worn it yet, so I don't know how well it will handle, so I'm only giving it 4 stars for now. I'm 6'2" and 175lb, and I ordered a size 5. When it first arrived, it was huge, way bigger than my size 6 from another company, but after washing it to shrink it (and to get rid of the weird "new gi" smell), it fits a bit smaller than my 6, The sleeves are a little short, but are just right for my taste, and I have very long arms so it is to be expected. The torso part fits a little baggy but slim and tight against my chest, which is good, and the pants are very high quality with extra cloth on the knee, which I did not expect, but was a great surprise.Upon update, the gi is still holding up very well and it has not torn or frayed almost at all. I would buy it again.

This is a great price on a starter gi that looks like I payed a lot more for it. Even though there were some issues which I mention below, the price makes it worth the trouble. I've gotten a lot of compliments on the black uniform from instructors and from other students. This is a Judo fit, so the sleeves are wider than a Jiu Jitsu uniform and will leave you vulnerable to more attacks in Jiu Jitsu competition, but would be fine for practice. It works very well for Hapkido, which is the style I study.Good things:- Good sizing. I ordered the black gi in a size 2. I'm 5'4 and the fit of the jacket is perfect. Pants could be a little longer to suit my style preference, but are well within the range of a traditional judo fit with feet and ankles showing.-The weight of the top is nice and heavy and the texture is pretty cool looking with a good feel.-The areas on the top that you would practice grabbing techniques on as well as the knees of the pants are reinforced with a second layer of fabric and stitching.-Strong enough for grappling and grabbing.-Tapered sleeves provide enough fabric for your partner to grab while practicing techniques, but don't get in the way.-Black hides stains and makeup marks. If you're a woman and you show up to class with even the slightest speck of makeup on your face, it will be rubbed off on your gi and is pretty embarrassing if you're wearing white. Black = win.Concerns:-Black bleeds a lot of dye and mine had a chemical smell when it arrived. Handling the dry uniforms left my fingertips colored from the excess dye. I had to wash these uniforms about five times using Synthrapol before I felt comfortable wearing them to class because I was worried the dye would rub off on other people's white uniforms or on my belt.-There were some loose threads I had to trim off.-After washing, the reinforced areas around the outside of the collar are a little puckered.-Black is beginning to fade. Some dye is continuing to wash off with every use.

I loved this gi. Most people said it was a good entry gi etc, etc. BUT I think it is high quality and great for a newbie or a long time martial artist. This is the 3rd one I have bought. 1 for my son, my daughter, and myself. I've done everything from BJJ, hopkito, japanese, jujitsu, and currently judo. The fit finish quality etc is just like my more expensive gi. Note: I always wash my gi's in cold water and air dry. Idk, if this gi would shrink and I don't plan to test it out. Bottom line this is an awesome gi at an awesome price. I'm no ninja master but I've been rolling and throwing for 19 years.
