TSD Uniforms

[JWLuiza]

I know Pro Force and Sang Moo Sa make TSD trim uniforms. Who else does? I also heard Sang Moo Sa aren't as good as they used to be...

Right now I have a 14 oz Pro Force black trim... looking for other options...

Best,

My TSD instructor got Pro Force stuff. I still have my TSD uniform, and it's a Proforce, so that's all I know. I couldn't tell ya about Sang Moo Sa. Never had one of their uniforms. Sorry John

Laurie,

Thanks for the reply. Sang Moo Sa/Pine Tree used to make great black or blue trim Tang Soo Do uniforms. Recent purchases from them have been lackluster. I'm getting happier with the 14oz Pro Force each day. At first they feel like velvet, but they get nicer after a few washes and they are very affordable (www.martialartssupermarket.com)

BUMP

To see if anyone has any info on the TSD Trimmed Uniforms they use. I'm relatively satisfied with the Pro Force, but I'd like a Tokaido or Shureido level quality. I'm thinking of just getting a Tokaido trimmed...

My dobok may have had a brand name written on it once...can't find it anymore. It's one of the thick, canvas-type ones. I've heard the name Pine Tree before, but can't say for sure if that's what I have now.

 

[JWLuiza]

Geez, well that doesn't help Sang Moo Sa/Pine Tree used to be ok, but they switched manufactureres, so they aren't as good as they used to be. Thanks for thinking about it!

I can't help either. Our forms are ProForce and "sent out" to have trim sewn on.

Proforce is good...but I recommend SUN by Choi Brothers over any one elses..they make great stuff, and the trim is done awesome as well. If you have an account with them, you can get a heavyweight uniform with full midnight blue trim, and a school logo embroidered on the back for about $45

Century Martial Arts also has traditional TSD uniform, the caryy many brand names.

 

[JWLuiza]

Century is THE BRAND. I really don't like century uniforms. josh - what weight are the Sun uniforms?

 

[Chizikunbo]

10 (poly-cotton) and 12 oz (100% preshrunk cotton)...

 

[JWLuiza]

Hmm. I'll have to take a look. I like 14oz or #10 Cotton from Japan... Getting some fabric for my Tokaido tomorrow. Thanks for the info.

Best,

They are cheap, but they have terrible customer service.

You may try www.boldlook.net . You have to set up a wholesale account, but you don't need a business license to do so. You just have to be a teacher.
They sell uniforms at less than half the retail price of those other places.

Yes, Boldlook is very good as well...they have great stuff all around! Actually I think they are the official supplier of the USSBDMDKF as well...

Proforce actually sells uniform with red/green/black/midnight blue trim in 12 oz uniforms... 14 oz black/midnight blue as well, but they are just OK uniforms.

 

[JWLuiza]

I just bought some canvas for my Tokaido. Pricing out a seamstress now. Will put up pics afterwards.

 

[JWLuiza]

LOL. Just got this done. Wow am I slow.

Post pics. Does your dojang use black belts or the midnight blue for the yudanja?

Or next time get a single weave judogi kimono. Nice, heavyweight and very soft. I refuse to wear anything else unless I have to (testing and ceremonies, etc.)
