BUYING A UNIFORM
Here are a few places to find a gi. It should be all white and a wrap-around style. The weight is a matter of personal preference, but most members of our club wear a medium to heavy weight gi. The sleeves and pant legs should be above your wrists and ankles. If they are too long, a tailor can easily shorten them. Wash in cold water and hang dry.
