SSF Pro Gi Initial Review

Hey all,

Just wanted to give an initial review of the gi I bought from SSF. First of all, the guys at SSF have great customer service and had my gi shpped with a quickness. It was sent out on Monday and got here today. Ok, now onto the gi.

After opening the package I first checked out the top. Due to my size (5'10", 205lbs) I was recommended a size A3. I always worry about gi sizing because of my measurables and because I am wide through the chest and back. The thing I noticed first was how soft the material was. The gi is VERY soft. The collar is good and thick but not really wide which is fine with me. The collar reminds me of my instrucors Vulkan collar. It is not as wide as my Padilla gi but is thicker. The fit is great! The skirt area is not real short like my Padilla, which looks like the traditional Brazilian length. The sleeves are a great length and not too wide. The one major thing I like about the top is the basic look to them. They only have an embroidered SSF patch on each sleeve, but it looks classy and I love it.



The pants are awesome! They have a great feel to them and are very comfortable! The length is just right, so hopefully it doesn't shrink to much in the wash (Cold). I definitely will air dry it even though I wouldn't mind if the top shrunk just a hair.

All in all, this is a great gi for a great price. SSF has great customer service and I wish I would have pulled the trigger on this gi sooner. I like the Padilla gi that I have but I would much rather have two of these. I will definitely do business with SSF again and I am looking forward to rolling in this thing. I have no doubt it will be unbelievably comfortable. Just wanted to say thanks to the guys at SSF
