Gi Question.

I just started taking a BJJ Class and was wondering. Which is a better Gi, the Gameness Platinum Weave or the Krugans Tribal. I wanting to get a black Gi and I know the Gameness was only around for a limited time. Does anyone know if you can still get one? Thanks for the help.

I can't really comment on the Krugans gi but, I do own a Gameness Plat. and I love the top. It fits me like it was tailored to me. The pants on the other hand seem to be a bit baggy for my taste. I am 5' 7" 165lbs. so if you are anywhere near my size this may help. Oh yea I also dry my gi in the dryer everytime and it has never shrunk.

I believe they're currently taking pre-orders on the limited run, though I don't know if they've announced when they should finally be released.

I agree with this. I've never used a black gi personally but those I know of are now more of a grey if anything. Gameness Plat Weave Gi is a top notch Gi!

Yeah when I took karate long long ago in my youth i had a Black Gi and it looked more grey than black after awhile. I just like the "blackish" look. lol. So I haven't missed they limited edition run of the Gameness yet thats awesome. I saw it on their site but thought it was just out dated. Cool. I'm looking forward to the army green one they were talking about though. Being former military I'm partial to the olive drab.

Cool that actually really helps me alot gives me sort of an idea what the pants will fit like. I'm around 6'1" 185lbs. So we proportioned about the same. Thanks espionage3.
