Most sports wear a uniform. Karate uniforms are called Gi's (pronounced "ge") and most are somewhat impractical to wear during training.We tend to continue the wearing of these uniforms through tradition not practicality. These uniform for most players are made from cotton, however some are made from a much heavier drill material, generally refered to as canvas.The traditional Gi comes in 3 parts jacket,pants and belt. The belts are commonly dyed colours to indicate the students level inside the dojo (training hall).Sensei(instructors)generally have a dress code for the dojo. Things such as the belt should not be worn outside of the dojo, whilst travelling to and from training.A lot of modern martial arts clubs are now going to more practical training gear like shorts and singlet(tank) tops.You will see many Kickboxers in silk shorts and no shirts or tee shirts when they train or compete.When purcashing a Gi you should always ask yourself how hot will it be. I have seen martial artists over the years collapsing in dojos due to extreme heat.So if you live in a hot area you may wish to purcahse a much lighter cooler uniform.The Judo uniform is extremely sturdy and designed to be able to cope with a lot of pulling and tugging before succumbing to abuse. The Judo Gi is also very hot in summer months though.So what uniform should I buy. Ask yourself what you want form the uniform.Do I want it to be light?Do I want it to be tough?What color am I looking for?How long does it need to last?What cut are you looking for?What price do I want to payWell on research I found two companies Gi's to be outstanding quality.Firstly KWON they make a large variety of different uniforms for various martial artsProfessional high-tech product development promises functional high quality products for the martial arts.
