Koral Size - Need Quick Answer

I found 2 koral gi's on ebay but they are different sizes. i don't know which size to get because the size chart is a bit weird.

I'm 6"2, 190lbs. Should I get an A3 or an A4?

I know others have posted similar questions, but none were in my size range so I couldn't find a satisfying answer.

Thanks.

Their size chart is strange... also, each batch of their gis uses a different size chart. The best thing to do is to ask for specific measurements (collar to end of sleeve, armpit to armpit, and collar to waist).

I would, but these are pretty cheap for MKM's and there is only 4 hours left on one of the items so I doubt I'll get a response before the auction ends. I guess I'll go with an A3 and pray for the best.

Sound like an A3, you'd probably be swimming in an A4.

I'm 5'8" 155 and an A1 (in olive, which is apparently the strangest as far as sizing goes) was skin tight. So for somebody 6" taller and 35lbs heavier, A3? I don't know...

The A1 Lucky Gi I have now is a little too big...

Two things that should happen, but never will: a unified scoring system in pinball and unified gi sizing.

I only have about 10 pounds on you and wear an A4. When my Atama and Vulkan were new, I swam in them. After three or four machine washes and drys, they're right on.

Is that a Koral though? I wear an A4 Gameness, but I don't think they have A0 like Koral's do.
