View Full Version : where to buy a gi?
danxgerous 04-09-2008, 06:27 AM so i tried a few different bjj gyms and i picked one.
now i need a gi. i've read many threads on these, i think i will get a cheaper gi as my first one and see how i like it.
i live in orange county, so i assume there are places i can go to try the gi on before i buy? a guy in my class told me about budovideos, but i cant seem to find the address on the website.
anyways, recommendations? im thinking about a fuji. they seem decent for the price. also, pre-shrunk and shrink to fit? does shrink to fit mean that i should buy it larger and it will shrink down to my size?
and my instructor didnt tell me anything about belts. i just go ahead and buy a white belt, right?
danxgerous 04-09-2008, 08:46 AM ok apparently budo video closes at 6. and its in garden grove, so its going to be hard for me to get there after work in time.
anywhere else in orange county that sells gi's and wont cost me an arm and a leg??

danxgerous 04-09-2008, 10:50 PM i jsut called them. no fuji gi's, which is what i wanna get. i dont think i want to spend over $100 on my first gi... maybe i'll drop by anyway and see what they have.

they have an OTM brand gi which is under 100 bucks, and you can PM Xhale cause he has hookups for koral ask him if he can help you out
Hey fellow OC bro, where do you train at?
jukeboxhero 04-10-2008, 05:36 AM Those blank OTM gold weave gi's are supposed to be pretty good.

just started at no limits mma. gracie barra america was too expensive for me :(
anyways, i rushed my ass over to garden grove to check out budovideos. it took me like 45 minutes to drive the 20 miles to get there.
anyways, the guys there were really helpful and we all agreed on a white gameness single. the fuji looked great and fit great, but once it shrank, it would have been a bit small. the gameness is a bit large, but should shrink to fit.
