Ok, here's the deal..

I *want* a set of YELLOW sparring gear (the dipped foam kind) but I'm having problem finding stuff outside of white, black, red and blue. Mostly because I'm tired of my gear walking away, and if I have a bright set of yellow gear it will be hard for someone to "Accidently" bag mine instead of theirs.

Plus I have a crazy theory that colors like yellow catch the eyes of judges

Anyone have any suggstions? I'll even ship overseas if necessary.

I exactly what your talking about, but I have never seen this color for sale anywhere. I have seen some old Bill Wallace fights where opponents are wearing the yellow gear and it really catches the eyes.

sorry I could not help

Good luck with your yellow gear, if you get it! Let us know how you go on at competition wearing it...

Yellow-what does it matter of what color with the judges?

To pick at yours-yes. But how come you don't "mind" your equipment?

Put some black stripes and the words-
"Sting Like A Bee"

www.kwon.com or www.kwonusa.com
They sell a sharp pair of yellow gear. I have a set of the matching red ones and they look really good.

I've got a set of bright orange gear from Shihan. They catch the eye of pretty much anyone that sees them/
