Has anyone else received the gold star yet? I did....

Stitching is sketchy all over but just stupid on the pants. Also the gi top itself has a near hole in it next to the lapel

can't say maybe they rushed the production with this one.. i see that near hole on the lapel getting worse when your training partners gets a grab of your lapel.

The pants are w/e, but that jacket hole is a problem. For $200 I'd send that shit back.

Ya, they are "premium fine fitted kimonos" not "premium fine stitched kimonos".

I got mine today. That hole sucks but the stitching overlap onto the red on the pants is standard. That's exactly how it is on my Batch 10 and also my Bull Terrier.

That hole doesn't fly though, ask them to replace it and if they dont.....I would post it on every bjj forum I could find.

You should go over to Facebook and post this shit on the BJJ Gi Addicts page. Hope you can get in contact with SYR and get this fixed.
