Tiger Claw 7.5 OZ Black Student Karate Uniform

UPDATE 8/12/2016: Just updating the review. The size 000 turned out to be very good quality and has lasted through my oldest and is now about to be used by my youngest. Who we are putting in Aikido, since the Tae Kwon Do Jr class is no longer offered but Aikido starts at 6 years and uniform is required. Just updating that this is definitely a good quality uniform. I just ordered the size 0 for when my oldest needs it (he's currently in the 00).ORIGINAL 8/29/2014: Very happy with quality of the fabric. No pink tinges in our 00 set. We ordered the 00 based on other reviews for my 7 year who has been in Tae Kwon Do Jrs for 5&6 year olds the last two years and moving to the next 7yrs+ class for hus 3rd year. He is in size 6 pants and size 7 shirts (he has a longer/broader torso compared to others his height and shorter legs). The set was way too big. I was fully prepared to hem, the pants especially, but the shoulder seams were not much above his elbows, lol. So we are putting the 00 set up and ordered a 000, which fits much better! He has a younger brother who is 4 and will be starting the Jr classes next year. Both boys have a genetic growth disorder but hormone supplements have not been a viable option for the youngest yet (the oldest has been on them a few years now) so this just means we already have the next size up for our oldest and we know the youngest will be needing the 000 or smaller also when he starts the 7yr+ class that requires uniforms anyways. The 7.5oz fabric is very nice, glad we didn't go with a 5oz version.

I read the reviews, I looked up what I thought was the sizing chart, I measured my daughter, ordered what I thought the right size... it arrived 4-5 inches too large.I asked if they could send a smaller one with me paying for it and they pay shipping but no... was not going to mess with a return so I just ordered a smaller one using the CORRECT sizing chart they e-mailed me.Excellent product just make sure to have and use the PROPER sizing chart!SIZE HEIGHT WEIGHT0000 3' 30 lbs.000 4' 40 lbs.00 4' 4" 60 lbs.0 4' 6" 85 lbs.1 4' 9" 100 lbs.2 5' 2" 125 lbs.2-1/2 5' 4" 135 lbs.3 5' 6" 150 lbs.3-1/2 5' 9" 170 lbs.4 5' 11" 185 lbs.4-1/2 6' 0" 195 lbs.5 6' 1" 210 lbs.5-1/2 6' 3" 230 lbs.6 6' 4" 250 lbs.6-1/2 6' 6" 265 lbs.7 6' 8" 280 lbs.8 7' 325 lbs.

This is the fourth uniform I've purchased from this seller and I could not be happier. The item is exactly as it is described. It's very easy to keep clean - a simple wash will do - and it looks great on my grandson. I first bought him a size 2, February of 2015, when he was eleven. He turned 12 in March and the size 3 fit perfect. He's tall for his age (about 5' 5") and solid, but not thick, with long arms. Hopefully, this will help when buying for your child or smaller adult.The material is lightweight, but does not look cheap. The garment is well made, the seams fall exactly where they should and it's easy to move in while wearing.The cost of uniforms from the martial arts instructor can cost from $35 for children and $40 for adults to much higher prices. At just around $20, I was more than pleased. Respectfully, some uniforms run more because they come with logos embroidered on. That's understandable, but isn't always the case.I'd strongly recommend this product and hope my reviews help my fellow Amazon.com shoppers.

my son recently started karate and was in need of a karate uniform. My local sporting goods store had these for over 40 bucks so when searching for one on amazon i wanted something affordable. 22$ is pretty affordable and much less than the store. the karate outfit arrived pretty fast and was packaged in a professional manner. the uniform itself came as 3 pieces, a belt a top and some pants. its been awhile since ive sewn however i can tell the stitching is nice and tight and the fabric is fairly thick. if only they made jeans this thick. trying the uniform on him it fits correctly and doesn't seem to impede his movement. i have waited a week to see how this holds up and it is showing zero signs of material wear. this is amazing as my son could wear out the knees in steel pants and do it in half the time a grinder could. i would buy this again in a heartbeat.

Purchased size 3 for 11 y.o. grandson, 5'3" tall, 121 lbs. Top fit perfectly with room to grow. Pants length OK - rolled cuff one turn. Waist just fit. No room for growth. I would recommend to the manufacturer to increase waist size-- it is stretchy so would still fit slimmer kids. If I went up to a size 4, I think it would be too big all over. I like the fabric. Not see-through, but not too heavy. Washes well. I dry it to barely damp and then hang up and hand smoothe. Dries with few/no wrinkles. After first washing I attached his stripes using Patch Attach. Found best price at local fabric store.

Great product and quality for the price! I bought this for my 8 year old daughter. She is about 55 lbs and is about 4 feet tall. This comes with the vest, pants and additional white belt. The uniform is sewed very nicely. There are no missing stitches or uncut threads. The uniform felt a little stiff when it arrived but after the first wash it softened up. The sleeves are a bit long for her but we just roll them up so it isn't a big deal for us. The elastic around the waist is think so it doesn't fold over or get wonky after a couple washes. The vest has in inner and outer tie so my daughter stays nice and covered. The uniform is lightweight and doesn't bother my daughter to wear a tank top underneath. She wears her uniform twice a week and it still looks nice. I would recommend this to anyone that is purchasing their first gi or need an additional one to have as back up!
