From what I have seen online and such the only thing I would have a problem with is the pants closure system. It looks like the loops needs to be a little closer together...

I agree...I love the pants but one con is there are only two loops, opposed to three and they're far apart.

They couldve added a third loop in the middle front or placed the two loops closer together.

Can anyone comment on the shrinkage? What if you put the gi in the dryer?

I've had mine about a month now. No complaints.

As for sizing: I'm 6 ft/180pd. The A3 fit me perfectly upon arrival. After a few washings it's now a little small.

I just got mine. I'm about 190 pounds and I bought a A-4. The Jacket fits just fine after some shrinking but the pants are huuuuuge! I can fit my whole family in there!
But still, a nice looking gi.

6'1" and around 200lbs and the a3 fit great when i got it and with a bit of unintentional shrinking it now fits me almost like an a2. love the pants though.

great gi if you like the look of patches and such.

I rolled in it this morning and loved it. I'll let you know how it compares to my kikskin single weave after I roll in the FUJI a few more times as well as a few washer machine runs on it.

I washed in cold water and tugged on the sleeves before hangng it up to dry.

Still working on getting someone to take the pics of it on me.
Got mine last Friday. A2 fits great and I haven't washed it yet. Hopefully it doesn't shrink as much. I have an mkimono A2 and Fuji has a more snug fit (not by much) I like the fit better.

Thanks to this thread, looks like I made a good decision.
