Ronin Karate Gi - Medium Weight, Black-5

I practice Kenpo, we use black karate gis. I have been through several gis, KD Elite, Macho, Pro Force, but I have to say, this gi fits better and is way more comfortable than any of those gis, although I really did like the KD Elite, but they quit making them! Anyway, this gi has a better fit than KD Elite, the jacket is longer which I like very much. Right out of the bag, this gi fit me pretty much perfectly. I do have to hike the pants up and tie them off above my bellybutton, but I am sure with a washing or two, they will shrink to perfect size. I am 6' 00" and weigh 175 lbs. The gi would fit easily fit someone 10 lbs lighter and probably 25 lbs heavier than I am. There is plenty of room in the pants for high kicks and strectching, but they don't look ridiculously baggy like some uniforms, this uniform has a nice cut that looks very good, right out of the package you will love it! I am very happy with the gi, it is the perfect weight, I really wouldn't want it any heavier for the hot weather and high humidity we get down here in Florida. It is perfectly light enough, and it breathes very nice. After reading some of the comments, I was expecting to have to alter the pants to fit, but they fit perfectly as does the jacket. Normally I wear a 35" waist and 31" length with my pants if that will help give an indication of my build. I am tall and slim, the pants are maybe an inch or two long, but I pull them up and tie them, and I am sure after the first wash, they will shrink down a bit to the perfect size. Even if they don't, the are fine the length they are. The uniform comes with a white belt, but I use my blue one that I earned from my Sensei, working on my green belt now in style in my new Ronin gi. It is very sharp looking, roomy and comfortable, and breathes really nice in keeps you cool during workouts. I love it, I am going to buy more of them in the future!

Very nice GI, fits well and the weight is right for me. It is true to size.

Good quality but didn’t come with belt. No biggie, but found another cheaper.

Fits well if you do a size lower than what the chart recommends. Based on the chart, I should have been a size 6 but I was absolutely swimming in that Gi. Super comfortable and holds up well. I've had a belt for about 5 years from them and it is probably my most favorite belt to wear for heavy sparring and basic training. it doesn't slip loose like some other belts I have and lays flat. The weight is just right for a Medium weight Gi.

I like the color, quality, and texture of this GI. Arrived quickly in less than 48 hours. The only negative is that it comes with a white belt. I am a black belt, and I wish I had a choice of buying the GI without the belt, it would be cheaper probably. Still 5 start for the product and the seller.

it was a great purchase

This is a nice middle weight gi, sizing chart is a bit off and runs large I ordered my regular size (5) and fits great albeit a little long in the legs, where the chart would recommend I order a 6. For reference I am 6ft 200lbs. I will update if any issues arise.

Sehr gute Qualität. Auch für Würfe stabil genug. Gut geschnitten. Nur in Japan besseren Gi erhalten.
