Comments about Storm Kimonos Storm Typhoon Original Gi:

Love the style and feel (slender). Odds are you'll be most satisfied. I second other comments regarding 1) itchy wrist lining and 2) the Storm Gi sizes have long sleeves and short pants. The short pant legs don't much matter; yet, the long sleeves feel weird at first (no issue while grappling though, because arms aren't just hanging down).

Great gi, for the right build

By Spinelock

from Delaware

Pros

Comfortable
Good Value
Great Design

Cons

Odd sizing

Comments about Storm Kimonos Storm Typhoon Original Gi:

This is an unbelievable gi. Very well made. HOWEVER, buyer beware. I am 5'10, 190. This puts me in an odd size catagory. The A3 fits my shoulders and chest perfectly, however the arms are too long. It doesnt shrink much at all, and like most gi's as soon as you start to sweat it stretches. By the time I got done rolling in my first session with it the sleeves were past my knuckles. Not good. The oddest part, is that despite how long the arms are, the legs are kind of short. I have read other reviews and apparently I am not the only one that has experienced this. I am trying to return it as I type this, which kills me because it really is an awesome, well made and beautiful gi.

Great Gi

By 808Cali

from Maui, Hawaii

Pros

BEAUTIFUL
Durable
Soft and Comfortable
Well sewn

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Storm Kimonos Storm Typhoon Original Gi:

I really Love this Kimono. The only thing is that I am 5'11" and 225 lbs. So I got the A4 when I usally wear A3's. I live in Hawaii so its hard to try on Gi's when no ones got one. As u know most companies Gi's say their pre-shrunk and when u wash them they still shrink. When I got this gi it was a little long on the arms (to the knuckles) and I've dried it 3 times and it only shrank about an inch. Its a great Gi, just be in mind it will not shrink much. I still plan to purchase two more, now that i know which size to get. Hope this helps.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Q:
Im 5'8 185 not sure if i should get an A2 or A3. It states the Gi is preshrunk so would that mean it doesn't shrink at all?
Asked on 9/18/2012 by jimmydeka
Know the answer? Answer this question
1 answer
- A:
  If you are 5'8" and 185 lbs and can't decide between size A2 and A3, you should consider whether you'd prefer a looser or tighter fit. You should also examine the specific measurements on the measurement chart, such as sleeve length. There is a 5 centimeter sleeve length difference between size A2 and A3 (roughly 2 inches.)
  
  The Gi is described as "steamed and highly-preshrunk", so it should not shrink at all, unless excessive heat is applied.
  Answered on 9/18/2012 by Community Answer from None
Q:
I am 6'2" 255lb.

I have a 38" waist.

What size of this Gi should I order?
Will it shrink at all? If not, will I be left with a lot of loose fabric (I am especially concerned about the pants)?
How will the colour be effected when the gi is washed? Will the colour fade dramatically on the dark Gis and/or bleed onto the rest of the Gi on the white Gis?

Thanks.

  A:
  This item does not come in a size that would fit your measurements. However, The Gameness Limited Edition XT Gi is similar in price and quality but comes in more accommodating sizes. Please follow the link below to the item. Provided on the site is an easy to read size chart.
  
  OBSERVE WHEN WASHING:
  *Machine Wash (30) thirty degrees Celsius
  *Do not chlorine bleach
  *Recommend to soak and wash the sweat after practice
  *Do not soak the uniform in water for a long time, as the fiber may weaken.
  *Do not wash together with dark color clothes.
  *Do not rub on harsh surface.
  *Hang dry, if you must dry: Tumble dry on Low Heat, remove promptly.
  *Wash alone
  The fabric should not bleed when washed alone.
  
  Following these specifications from the manufacturer will help ensure a long life of your Gi uniform.
  Please let us know if you have any further questions.
