Size 4 black heavyweight gi- forgot the brand. I get rid of the labels- I like my gi clean. I'll wear the same one to extinction. I have my dojo patch & American flag patch, that's it.

Black middleweight KI International. I find their middleweight gi to be as heavier than, say, a Century heavyweight gi.

Since I'm doing mostly FMA now, I just wear workout pants and a t-shirt. Paintball gloves every so often.

When I have to wear one, it's a middleweight Kwon, size 4. I think it used to be black, but now it's sort of grey. I prefer street clothes. Gi's are like formal wear.

I wear the TKD dobok (white). Size 4. I like them baggy :D Except the Centry ones shrink. So I combined my old TSD Proforce brand pants with my TKD top. The Proforce brand don't shrink, so I don't look like I'm wearing "high waters (sp?)."

My Judo gi, I still have to order. Right now I wear a t-shirt and dobok pants for Judo. Perfect for just doin those dang breakfalls over and over ..... at least I'm comfortable with what I'm wearing ..... not with the breakfalls LOL ...... ouch.

Er... let me clarify... by do without, I mean just comfy workout pants and a tee-shirt, as opposed to the gi.






Sorry, not walking around naked or anything.
:rolleyes:
That'd give people a scare.

Formal training:

Arnis gi top and bottom, size 6, black with red outline. The style of the top is a mixture of FMA style and Kung-Fu style uniform. School t-shirt. Rank belt.

Informal training:

School t-shirt and any of the gi pants below--
Pro Force 12oz. black karate, size 6
Atama black pants, size A4
Century Heavyweight Pro black pants, size 5
Century heavyweight Contact black pants, size 6

You all are right about Century's sizing...eveything fits differently.

WTF Black v-neck dobok. I actually have about three of them, all exactly the same. I like the simplicity.

Never could figure out the reason for black or colored uniforms in Tae Kwon Do.:idunno:

I wear a black 12oz gi or a red 14oz gi, depending on what I am doing at the time. I wear the black for class, wear red when teaching.

Size 3, White Student Judo Gi (drawstring pants) for Aikido. (Usually with the black hakama too.) I have 2 gi's. The first one is my favorite and I wish I could find the same brand, but can't. The second I got from Century.
