With Gis like their new Hooks 2.$70
Can't wait for this one to arrive!
first purchase here... got the A3 - is this the right size for someone who is 6 ft 1, 195 lbs (and bulking) with pretty long arms (6 ft 3-4 reach)?
I have heard that they run big. If you like a fitted fit, the A2L will be better.
A3 will work after a wash and dry (i recommend cold wash, then a warm cycle "Medium Heat" at 15min intervals until it fits to your satisfaction). A2L could work also. I'm 6'1"... pushing 6'2" and 180 lbs and the A2L works with cold washing/hang drying. Although I am bottom heavy (thick legs and butt) so 93 Brand a2L's tend to be too snug on my butt and thighs, so I started getting A3 instead. It takes one or two wash/dry sessions to get it down pat, but overall I'm happier with it.
5'11" 187 what size?
A2
5'4" and 130. size suggestion?
A0 if you like to cold wash/hang dry. A1 could work as well, just would require some shrink-to-fit.
no a3L?? my OG hooks in a3L fits perfect (6'4", 210lbs) guess it wasn't meant to be D:
I'm 5'9" 210 lbs. What size would you recommend
I am 5'10, 165, but have long arms. Both of my favorite gi's are A2L. Should I go A2 or A2L here?
A1L
A2 is best IMO. A2L would be too long unless you've got incredibly long arms. I'm 6'2" with long arms and the A2L is perfect on me. Which brands are your other A2L Gis?
6' 190 pounds. What do you recommend? Thanks
A2L if you like a more fitted style, A3 if you like a looser fit.
I'm 6'1", 195 lbs... What size should I get? Please let me know guys. Thanks.
A3
On your size chart there's an A3L but you didn't list any. Did you miss listing them or are there none? Thanks
There is no A3L for the Hooks. Most other 93 Brand Gis have an A3L so it is included in the size chart. All available sizes have a corresponding button on the right.
Is it pre-shrunk? How much shrink should be anticipated?
Little to no shrinkage when washed cold and hang dried. If it's a little loose and you want to make it a little more snug, try 15 minute intervals in the dryer to shrink it down a bit. There will be minimal shrinkage as the fabrics are pretty thoroughly pre-shrunk, but you can get some shrinkage if you do so deliberately.
Just purchased a Venum Competitor A3 that shrank horribly in cold water/hang dry process. Being 5'10" and muscular 214lbs what size would be recommended in this manufacturer to avoid the same fate as the Venum? I appreciate any direction you may offer. Thank you
You're right at the bottom of the A2H weight range, but I'd say it's the best bet. It'll be wider than you need right out of the bag, but you can shrink it down if you: Wash cold. Throw it in the dryer on Medium Heat for 15 minute intervals (up to 3 or 4 intervals if needed).
looks great - what size for 5'8" 160?
I'm 5'8", 155-160 and have the original white Hooks in A1 and the fit is great in both the arms and pants. If necessary, I could pass a gi-checker in it with no problem. Assuming you're smart with washing then A1 should be perfect.
A1L would be a great tailored fit for you.
6 foot 275 pound size ?
Tough call as your height is an A3 but an A3 would be too snug at 275 lbs. A5 is best for your weight, but it'll be a bit long out of the bag. My advice would be to pick up an A5 as it's better to choose the bigger of two sizes whenever you're in between. At most you'd need to take in the sleeves/pant cuffs if they're too long.
