Heh, I don't have dryer and I wonder how my gi will shrink, I did some measurements before washing it and after.. I hanged it and left it to dry.. When it will fit just like I want I'll post some pictures with measurements..
Btw any ideas how to shrink it to fit without dryer?

heat it up with a hand dryer or put it near a heating vent / fireplace

ive been training in mine for the past few weeks and its good. My only compaint is that the pant legs are very wide. I shrunk it and it fits well but the legs look like a Judo cut. But other than that the top is great, Feels really strong and durable and the collars pretty good.

100% worth it at the price.

hi guys,

Since there's a review thread about the fuji gis, and quite a number of ppl have gotten them, and experienced them, just tapping into that with an enquiry on fit.

I am 5'8"and weighing about 170 pounds

Should I get the A2 or A3? Thanks!

I dunno, Im a decently big guy at 6'1" and 200 right now and the gi's pants and arms are a bit short on me. I'd say get the a3 and shrink it if you have to

thanks dragonfire, for that input.

I think i am leaning to the A3 then. I was thinking of the A3. A couple of us guys at our academy gonna buy this gi and give it a go.

This is just my part to ascertain the size for myself.

the fujis are definately a "competition" cut. The cuffs are narrower and the gi itself is tighter than same size bad boy (atama gold weave), Kagi clubsport, and vulcans.

Ok, I want to get a Fuji BJJ gi but I don't know what size to get. I got a size 5 Fuji Judo gi and hung it to dry, and it was basically too small, it shrank to almost a 4 (really good gi though.)

So, in the BJJ gi, I don't know if I should get an A3, like I normally would, or an A4 and put it in the dryer etc.... I'm 5'11" around 165 lbs. I don't need it to be tight at all, but I don't want to be swimming in it either.
