Koral Gi Sizing?
I'm looking to get a Koral Classic Gi, but there is conflicting size info on the koral homepage and the jitsuprogear website.

I'm 5'7" and generally walk around @ 155lbs.

Should I go with the A-1 or A-2?

Thanks (I searched first).

A1!!! FTW!

I'm 5'8 and walk at 160(170 now because mom doesnt cook) and I got an A2. And btw they really don't shrink so get a A1! Next time I'll stick with an A1.

Yeh I'm 6'2 and 160 lbs, but the gis that are for people 6'2 say they are also for people 200-250 lbs. HOW does this work, will the gi be super-loose on me due to my body weight??

If you search I think there are several threads on koral sizing for your height.

I'd listen more to the HEIGHT factor than the weight. But I could be wrong.. Koral has the worst size chart out of all the companies.

You will get a gi that is either superloose, or supertiny and tight. Either way you lose
