I ordered the Gi from www.breakpointfc.com, The Staff was really great and helpful in senting me and correcting getting me the size of the gi i wanted.

The Gi does feel Soft and warm in it get for training in Winter or cold days when it rains.
It is really tough and durable as, i could feel the Gi material is really good. When you roll in it you could feel the difference from the other gis.

The Shrinkage is only about 2 to 3 %. After the First wash, i could feel the gi fit prefect on to my body and do use Dylon Cold Dye Fix to fix the gi colour before the First Wash. Just get about four packets of it and some salt and mixed the mixture with hot water and make sure the water turns cold before soaking the gi for up to three hours.

After that you could see the Color settling into the gi itself.
Please Comment on my Review

I had tried Single, Double Weave and Golden Weave Kimonos . As i would say, It is more of a Hybird Weave, It feels like a double Weave, but It feels so amazing soft for a new gi. Suprisely as the weaving is really made tough, Tough as though like a Double Weave.

NickyNoNeck is the anti-pearl weave crusader!

A guy at my gym got this gi and likes it a lot. But besides the graphic barf all over it - I have one major problem; the collar. I could hold onto that collar all day. It is soft and thin. I might not have noticed, but we were drilling collar chokes that day.

Yeah you are right on the collar part, but the one i bought is the newer improve version two. Your Friend Ought to be using the first version of the Gi. Which is more softer then Version two.

If you guys would like to ask more about the gi, please go ahead and ask me more about it. I didn't up on the stitching and Threading of the Gi.

I would upload the Pictures tomorrow morning.
