Icon7 Need to buy a new GI, suggestions

Was looking at this one.

http://www.mmauniverse.com/products/SS285

Looks pretty cheap for an Atama GI, but I havent checked shipping to Europe.

Any suggestions guys ?.

Yea, but only if your looking for something like an unbleached white single weave. I need a blue one, plus I was after something a little more snazzy ;) . I know its purely aesthetic, but still.

do you NEED a blue one or do you just WANT a blue one?

also I think HCK competition single weaves are better than Atama single weaves.

Koral are also nice.

its not snazzy but the Black label gi is the nuts - for £65 it is well worth it. it is soooooo hard for someone to choke you out with your collar if youve got one of these!!!

Bit of both. I do Jiu-Jitsu, but sometimes I train with some Judo guys. They all have a white and a blue GI for competition. Ive already got a white GI (though it sucks for grappling).

HCK Kimonos are great quality and pretty cheap. There is also Sirius, the brand which i use now. I can say that it is the best gi I have ever had.
