This style sees the return of their hybrid "Twin Twill" fabric: a lightweight cotton textile with a unique looking texture that's a result of layering conventional ripstop weaving pattern into a twill weave base. While the fabric is one taken from Jiu Jitsu, the overall construction is modified to be more suitable for casual-wear (see below if you're curious about specifics on the mods). The Gentle Art also gets a shout-out via a few key elements, like the traditional Gi pant gusset, elevated rear waist, and 93brand's drawstring/loop system. 300GSM Pearl Weave is used for the rear pocket, for a little reminder of the mats when you reach for your wallet. Pearl Weave is also used for 4-point loop system, with a butterfly-guard-inspired woven label on the 4th loop. This style has an addition of the card/cash flap pocket.Some noteworthy specs:
FIT ADVICE:Considering the alterations mentioned above... - If you order your usual Gi size, the alterations have already been made. So you'd receive a fitted pair of pants that hug the body more closely, with a taper and length akin to a pair of fitted chinos or joggers.- If you tend to be on the cusp of 2 sizes, it's safe to go for the larger size and shrink down if needed (the fabric does have some natural shrinkage).- If you prefer a looser fit, go up one size.

I stand by this product. I held off for soiling because I think it's cringe. And I have so much old Gi's at home. Bought one and game over. Fit is tapered, very comfortable. I only use it to lounge at home or for quick local errands. It's better than joggers, I highly recommend.
I held off for so long**
I agree, been curious for years and finally tried them. This will be my second pair.
Did you go with your normal gi size?
Yes. I went with my regular size. Just note, they made the legs tapered fit so it has a slight taper at the bottom from knee to ankle.
