I have them both, and it's been pretty hot here in Memphis lately. To be honest, I find them both pretty comparable. There's not any one that I prefer to wash and wear rather than just wearing the other. I would say if it's more of a size preference than a performance/feel preference. But others may feel different. I do think the Ouano pants are softer though.

Important edit: I thought you said Gameness PEARL, which is what I was responding to. I do NOT have the Platinum!!! My comparison is between the Pearl and the Ouano!

The plat is gameness's heavy comp gi not the lightweight gi. Not sure if that was an error in thought, or if you were wanting a comparison between the 2 or the ouano and the pearl like the poster above me covered
