ronin brand pants are awesome, they are thin and comfortable and sturdy and i can move in them. gameness ristricts full movement and are too thick IMO. I disagree with soids comment on them
Who knows. I believe they changed their pants style so we might be talking about 2 different models. I got my gameness pants 2 years ago.

I now own 3 pairs of the Ouano and won't hardly wear anything else. Simply love them. I even traded a 2 Atama Gis away to be able to get another Ouano. They are very durable and with the Blue seem unstainable - blood, sweat grim - doesn't matter... They do fade a bit quickly from the dark blue but that is a minor item...

I have the koral mkm, the pants are super light and soft, they seem very durable as of now, good knees also.

Koral gi pants seem to be the best as far as I've seen at my gym, Atama's of course have always been good, but from talking to the people there about them since I'm planning on getting a new gi, their comments seem to recommend the Koral's.
Comments included: Comfortable and relatively light, strong, barely fade, durable knees.


But DO NOT get the gi top, after about 7-8 months it'll have more holes than Akebono has in his technique.

Not trying to hijack or anything, but can anyone recommend any gi tops that are a decent price since Atama's have been going up lately.

This guy at my gym, Nate, has this one:



He has only had it for 6 and a half months, he rolls abour 4-5 times a week and he has two holes on the back, one is relatively large, one under the armpit , and two in the front, the lapel is extremely stripped and it just looks torn up.

Another guy has one as well, but he has the all white one, his seems to be in decent shape, I haven't gotten around to asking him how he likes it yet. But from the two guys that have em, they wouldn't recommend anyone buy the top, atleast not that one. But then again, ALL Koral gi's are single weave so it might be safe to assume that they aren't the strongest for gi tops, though you seem to like yours. How long have you had it for and which style is it?

My sirius gi is great, i absoluely love it and despite being almost 2 months old it looks nearly brand new. the pants arent too great though, the jacket has gotta be a 8/9 out of 10, but the pants are no more than a 5.

Yeah what is up with that. Has any company tried to do something different then the usual drawstring deal? I am considering trying something new on my gi pant design but curious why it hasn't been done yet.
