Being a big guy (6'4'' 250 lbs.) I wanted a gi top that would be a bit longer than usual. The extra inch of length on the gi top is just what I was looking for. I bought the ironman gi back in January of '06 and loved it from the moment I tried it on. It's super soft, heavy and it has that ''pop'' to it. You guys know what I'm talking about. This is definitely my favorite gi. I've worn it to several tournaments and I love the way it looks, feels, fits, and flows.
I am saving up now to buy another.
