Hi everyone.
For those that don't remember my background, I've recently (5 months ago) got back in to Taekwondo after a lay off and have piled on loads of weight, which is now thankfully coming back off...
The problem I have is that my doboks don't fit any more (actually, I can get in to them, but kicking would split them hulk style!).
So, does anyone have any advice for the widest/baggiest WTF-style Taekwondo uniform? I've got a number of adidas uniforms (most recently a Super Master one), I'm normally a size 6/200, but for the recent one I've gone to a 5/190 as they seem to be getting longer in the leg.
Anyway, any recommendations - and just to be cheeky, if anyone has a recommendation and actually has a size 5/6 uniform in that brand can they post some measurements (around the waist of the dobok top and trousers top and the width of a thigh of the trousers).
Thanks in advance.
P.S. I know the proper answer is "wait until you've lost enough weight then wear your normal ones", but I'm doing more teaching at the club trying to prepare 1st Kup upwards for their next Dan ranks and I'd like to be in a uniform when I do so.
