Honoring Tradition by Equipping with Excellence

Heavyweight Gi

Our heavyweight Gi is made with a thicker fabric, made to be sturdier and more durable for intense training and competition. They are especially useful for grappling work, winter training, and for styles such as Judo or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, where more groundwork is required. These martial arts uniforms are built to last and take a beating. They offer better protection and support for high-intensity training! Our heavyweight Gi uniforms are also traditional, authentic gear, properly tailored to meet the criteria for formal events such as Karate tournaments!

Lightweight Gi

Our lightweight Gi karate uniforms are made with a thinner fabric, making them notably lighter and more comfortable than their heavier Gi counterparts. They provide greater mobility for form practice or sparring and are more suitable for hotter conditions or climates and extended training sessions. They’re usually preferred for casual training, summer months, and competition weigh-ins. They can also often be used as a martial arts uniform in other styles, such as a Dobok, or a Taekwondo uniform in traditional Korean martial arts such as Taekwondo and Soobahkdo.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have any questions regarding our Gi selections? Here are some of the most frequently asked questions regarding them:

What is the point of a Gi?

First, wearing a Gi is about respect for tradition – it symbolizes respect for the art, the dojo or school, and the instructor. Gis are also used to denote rank. In terms of functional use, these martial arts uniforms are very durable and provide a surprising deal of protection during intense training. Also, certain grappling techniques directly utilize the Gi uniform.

What is the difference between a Karate and Taekwondo Uniform?

While the traditional Karate uniform is called a Gi, Taekwondo has what is called a Dobok. The Dobok is influenced by the Gi, but tends to be lighter, and sometimes has a pullover v-neck style shirt rather than an open jacket like the Gi. However, though it’s less common, the open-jacket style is sometimes used in Taekwondo.

What Martial Arts Styles Use a Gi?

There are many styles that use a Gi as a martial arts uniform. Most notably, there is Karate, but other Japanese martial arts such as Judo, Aikido, and Kenpo use a Gi as well. Also, some non-Japanese styles, such as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, use a Gi too. There are sometimes minor differences in certain styles’ Gis.

Should I get a Heavyweight or Lightweight Gi?

This depends on what martial arts style you’re training and how you’re training. For instance, a lightweight Gi is probably a better choice for extended training sessions and in hotter conditions, or if being used as a substitute for a Dobok. The heavier option is more appropriate as a grappling-based martial arts uniform and for colder weather!
