We recently reviewed the White Gameness XT Gi now you can check out the black XT Gi available at Gameness Europe.

As soon as I opened the box, I thought wow this is a sick gi. The color of the contrast stitching and the embroidered pit bull logos…. everything looked great.

A couple of my training partners have the XT in white and said it ran a little big and didn’t shrink much at all.

Fit

I typically wear an A3 in everything; I guess I fall in between A2/A3 since I am 6ft and 73 kgs. But, I have always gone with the A3 for length, so I figured I would try an A2 in the XT and I am glad I did.

It fit pretty good right out of the box. The gi was a little long in the sleeves, but I washed and dried it on high heat for about 10 minutes and now its perfect. I have rolled in it several times already and believe it is the best gi I have ever owned…. I love it! I would recommend it to everyone. Below is some more info on the gi:

The specs:

Reinforced stitching including the elbows, a thick rubber collar, 10 Loop MaxDraw ® drawstring system, Gameness Platinum 100% Cotton pants and a 550 gram Pearl Weave top. The XT features blue contrast stitching, embroidery and a newly designed chest patch.

Feeling when rolling: As a A3, the gi weighs weighs in at around 2.1 kilos which is around the same weight as a  Koral MKM. The gi is really comfortable and the thick collar will help you out in defending collar chokes. It is suitable for hot or cold weather rolling.

Weight:

A1: 1,70 kg

A2: 1,96 kg

A3: 2,12 kg

A4: 2,28 kg

A5: 2,46 kg

Sizing:

A1 155-170 cm 50-62 kg
A2 170-180 cm 63-75 kg
A3 180-183 cm 76-90 kg
A4 183-192 cm 91-110 kg
A5 192-< cm > 110 kg

So in my personal opinion I would give this gi a 9,5/10 rating in terms of satisfaction. I really enjoy rolling in it and it looks great too!
The plus points for me are the fit, the high quality, the classy embroidery and design. It is of course very comfortable to wear The minus point is that the pants are slightly heavier than rip stop, but on the hand, they are very durable so you can’t really complain.
