Ok.. I just got this GC Platinum 350 gi in the mail..
I've been wanting a black gi for a while so I thought I would give this this one a try.
First impression out of the box is good. The gi looks and fits great.
I'm 5'8, 170lb. average build. This gi is an a2. This pic is pre-wash
The jacket is a 350g weight weave which is softer than I expected it to be. The weave itself seems not to be as tight as other kimonos i've owned. I assume this to be why the jacket is so light. I don't believe this to be an issue though, as all seams/stress points are reinforced well and the mid-seam is reinforced with a strip of rip-stop, which runs down the arm and reinforces the cuff.
out of the box the gi looks to fit you better. the length is the same, but since you are 15 lbs heavier than me you fill it out nicely.

yikes, more like a half assed instructional :redface:
I am still very insterested in the product itself!
That was something to get the basic idea, its not meant to be a instructional.
I am used to using a towel or having to bring my Gi Top to the gym for work outs, its a little more old school. That is why we came up with this solution so far so good 25 sold today so they r almost sold out. Thank u to those that have purchased... Keep me informed on how your grips get....
