Icon3 Koral or Vulkan??

I am looking to get my frist gi and I have pretty much narrowed it down to either Koral MKM in white or vulkan ultra light in white. I did some searchs on it and found some reviews but I was just curious on which one people actually thought is better.

now that they are both pre-shurnk there isnt a very big difference in them at all besides the price and a few ounces of weight.

If you have the money, then I would just buy both. That's what I did.

I like my koral, I've never used a vulkan gi (my next purchase). Either way I'm sure you cannot go wrong.

If it's your first gi, I'd go for the cheaper one, which would be Vulcan.

Although I'm an HCK guy myself
