When I trained at Team Megaton, there was no official gi requirement, but if you didnt have a back patch you did 100 push ups before you could train that day. It was brutal but you made sure to have a back patch, lol. Pretty sure I paid $120 and bought my gi from the school, its an Atama with the us/brazil flag shoulder patches and its held up great despite the age... pretty much a collectors item now as you dont see em anymore.
My current school has no gi or patch requirements, but black/non-traditional gi's aren't allowed for classes and the instructor will smash you if you wear one for an open mat. I bought one of our school gi's for $120, its not any name brand but aside from the cord splitting its a nice, comfortable gi.
