Ok, I've been rolling with my Hemp gi for about a week now. First off it took 3 days to ship from CA to Long Island, NY, so that was nice and fast. I love the natural white, there's been mixed comments from my training partners but for me it's perfect. The gi is much softer than I expected and it's actually very comfortable. I've gotten a lot of good comments on the feel from training partners. A thing I would like to see change is the cut, I prefer a slimmer cut, this one is wider than any other gi I own. So far it's been very strong, which is obviously important. The gi is also lighter than expected so that was nice too. But some of the stitching is sloppy and uneven in certain areas(acknowledged in the letter that came with the gi) . One of the loops on my pants is already coming off, I can stitch that up myself but I wasn't expecting that so soon. I like that you included the option of the rope drawstring, I've always preferred a rope to the traditional pant material string. Overall its good quality, I like it, and I would recommend it to someone looking to buy a new gi. So thank you for the gi, and thanks for reading this if you did!
