PROFORCE Gladiator 14oz Karate Pants w/Traditional Waist - Black - Size 5

The ProForce Gladiator 14oz Karate Pants were exactly what I needed. The fit was what I expected.

These are nice thick heavy pants, color fades with washing but material is holding up very nicely. Traditional drawstring pants are nice for "thicker" people that don't want to have elastic cutting into their sides.

Well made, sturdy traditional pant. Would and did recommend to a friend.

Good fit

I love that this pair of pants gives me more room than standard sizes. Most gi pants are either fine at the waist and way too long, or the right length and too small at the waist. Finally, this pair fits my body type which has thick thighs, a large butt, and a chunky waist. (Hey, not all martial artists are 20 year old athletic men.) My only complaint is that I wish they could spring for TWO belt loops. One belt loop right in the center? Really? Sure, I can tie my knot around it and it keeps the string from riding up. But I feel like a fricking unicorn. Two would have been nicer, or even three if the center loop is helpful for keeping the knot from riding up.

These were way too big. Even if I washed them and shrunk them, they'd still be too big. I wear a 5, but this was very large.
