I just started a ju jitsu class and I need to get a good heavyweight gi( the leightweight one from kenpo isn't going to cut it I don't think). Can anyone tell me where I can get a good deal on one. I am just doing this for a little while to experience a different art then Kenpo in action but I am not sure if I want to continue to do both arts for an extended amount of time. So I don't want to buy a $120 gi since I am not going to quit Kenpo for ju-jitsu. Thanks for your time.

Try Atama.com one of my students bought a natural single weave jiu jutsu gi for $49.00. I believe this was an internet special that they had going. Don't know if it is still going on?

Don't forget that you can also use a judo gi in your kenpo classes as well. With this in mind, dont worry about spending a little extra on it because it can take more abuse then a typical gi and will probably last a lot longer

If you are not doing BJJ don't worry about getting a good JJ gi. Just get a regular Judo Gi. If you are doing BJJ I would recomend getting a JJ gi just because of the coller and sleeves.

Well said!
A good gi, is always worth it.
