I need help buying a gi. Help please.
So I'm trying to buy a gi, because I found a place to train finally.

I'm looking for a durable, cheapish gi because I'll only be wearing the gi 2-days a week (the rest of the training is either no-gi or stand-up).

I'm confused on what exactly to get.

For example, I was looking at this: http://www.heimas.com/productdetails.php?product_id=27

Does that include the pants? Because it's only describing the top, but I consider a "uniform" to be the top and the pants.

Also, on that same site, I couldn't find a place to buy a white belt. They only sell colored belts.

Should I try to get my stuff from a different site?

Gameness is a great gi, although I do not like it for some reason. Try the Mizuno, or just speak to Ron.

I believe you can order direct from HCK, as well. Try this...

Okay, another question:

What do the sizes mean (A2, A3) etc.

I'm 6'5-6'6'' about 220lbs.. I have no idea what size to get and that site doesn't have a chart...
