Gi sizing question.

[Defy]

Beginning Jui-jitsu and going to buy a Koral gi hopefully.

I'm currently ~5'10 and 250lbs, but losing weight weekly as I workout pretty heavily.

My training starts soon and i'm wondering which sizes to shoot for seeing as i'm a little overweight.

Any opinions will be welcomed! thanks!

anyone? i've searched all the forums for possible repeat posts... i've even emailed koral for an answer with no response..

If you buy a size similer to your own it will be abit bigger than you to start off with until you wash like a dozen times. So it really depends on what you want.

I'm 5'9 255, and I wear an A4 top A3 pants since I have short legs. Tops are different though. I bought an HCK that doesn't fit right at all it's too small. Atama fits well if you have some extra weight, and I have a Vulkan A4 that I love. It fits really well over my big gut. I also bought a cool looking black GI from a company called Brass Knuckles Fightwear. It's also an A4 gold weave, and it fits well. For the money, I would recommend this gi to anyone for the price, looks and quality. Check them out.
