Sooo 5 lessons into Aikido it's probably about time to start thinking about getting a gi now. My sensei is pretty laid back on what kind you can wear and literally his only rule is that it has to be white. Which is fair enough. Now I understand that any single size of gi can come in about 6 different weights and thicknesses... He's said it's up to us what we pick... My jiu jitsu sensei said the same. I've been advised to get a 'Judo one' because they're thicker and more resilient to throws and the lighter 'karate ones' can tear after a while. This is all new to me though so I'm not really sure on any of this... I'd kinda prefer a lightish one, less restrictive and hot...
