Manto Gi - Review

[Gordinho]

Hello Folks,

finally, after searching for an good Manto Gi deal, i found one in Germany. So lets see, the Kimono is a single weave with great reinforcements. I also like the fact, that everything is keep clean with minimal patches. Like atama, Manto stitched in three different places "emblems". Its a lightweight Kimono, almost as light as Vulkan... The overall stitches are very good, never saw such a clean work.

Nevertheless, i dislike the Cut and the Collar. The Collar is thin and the Cut is more like an Kikskin, you gotta be Tall and slim.

Overall i would give it a 7.25/10

Why?

Pro:
- light
- Strong weave looks durable
- Clean stitches

Cons:
- Baggy + Tight not for heavy dude.
- thin Collar
(- not Preshrunked?)

Lets do some Pictures.

Hmm thats true, it feels like an Fuji too. But i would say the Cut is really different compared to the other Kimono i had.

your white one looks nothing like mine

i.e the cut .......the manto patch on the front

mine fits really well--no complaints about the cut

That look slike a gold weave to me. Gordinho's looks like a pearl weave.
Sadly, I know that.:icon_cry2
