I ordered the 18 inch tonfa because that is the size I need according to my arm length. The handles are way too long on these tonfa. (Little arms = little hands.) I wish Century made the handle size proportional to the length of the tonfa. It seems that they just slapped their standard handles on these, and they slip as a result. If they made a choice of handle length, the product would be way better.

I bought the white traditional jacket. I like it way more than the jacket from my middleweight gi. Heavyweight cotton is the way to go. Don't waste your money on the cheap cotton/poly middleweight. This heavyweight one is great.

The material and feel of these pants are great. I am still deciding whether I like the way the contact pants fit vs the traditional ones. If I had to do it again, I think I would have gone with the traditional drawstring pants.
