 |
|
| I promised myself a good gi if I were to ever get my shodan. So my question is do any of you guys know where I could find a good deal on a Century Iron MAn Gi because I can't seem to bring myself to pay $130 for a gi even though it may be worth it. Thanks in advance. |

It is not expensive but i recommend anything from karatedepot.com, my black belt is from there, i've had it for years and its been great, and one of my uniforms is from there as well, and thats been great for about a year as well.
but besides that proforce is a good brand, but if your looking for something thick, with some real nice stitching i'd give shureido, kwon, tokaido, kamikaze, and ronin.
here is a link to a few good reviews on most of these brands:

good luck and let me know what you think!

and what color gi are you looking for, im assuming something white or black with no trim since you used the term 'gi'.
