The Inner Lining

Unlike what many people have said about this Gi, the inner lining is NOT soft. It's not made of any special material. There's not an extra layer or anything. It has the full print graphics all on the inside. I'm not sure what the exact term is for how the graphics are layed on top, but maybe silk screening? The full print graphics don't look very durable, more on that later.




Size / Fit / Shrinkage

So just some basic information I am 5 foot 8 and walk around at 155lbs. I own an Atama Mundial #7 and an A2 fit me perfectly. So I went with the same size, A2, for the Lucky Gi.

The following pictures show a before wash and after wash length.

Wash cycle: Gentle cycle, cold water, using Tide Coldwater detergent.
Dry cycle: Normal heat, 40-55 minutes.

Overall the Gi top and bottom both lost about 1 1/2 to 2 inches of length in some areas, for me this was perfect.
