Aesthetic brings you their "Kikko" kimono.$85
Sort of strange to me that the brand puts so little info for the product and HQ is just cool with that. Are they not trying to sell these things?!..
That means they think you're more likely to buy it if you don't have the info, which isn't a good sign.
Or they assume that you already know the brand and the item…
The Lamborghini of Gis, their target audience is not the everyday consumer.
@OkayLetsBJJ - We wouldnt voluntarily buy something to feature on the site if we thought people would be turned off by the specifics. Since our pricing is lower, our margins are thinner, and we rely on repeat business. I.e. our goal is to have those who support us have *more* trust in us after purchasing. Anyway this product in particular is new, and we got it before Aesthetic did (HQ warehouse and Aesthetic warehouse are continents apart) so our relatively new copywriter didnt have much to work with. Our error for sure. FWIW: This is actually a pretty nice Gi. I saw it yesterday and it looks sharp. Bag is sweet. Details are clean.
@inside mankaku. Fair enough. I'm actually really interested in it, but super hesitant with so little information (even with googling). On their site, a portion on the page translates to "Because it is an overseas product, there may be print misalignment, fraying, dirt, individual size differences, roughness, etc." Which is... Not great to hear. Thoughts? I'm assuming you've inspected them and seen them to be high quality and consistent?
Whatever disclaimer that japanese site has.. does not apply to BJJHQ. We wouldnt agree to buying 200 gis if there was a “maybe” about whether or not there are print misalignment or dirt.
Anyone know anything about these? Doesn't say GSM.
All G No S&M
According to the link below, 450 gsm According to this, 450 gsm https://tenmei-japan.com/products/aesthetic-kikko-kimono-black
450 GSM btw
Looks good. Should I buy
(For ppl asking about sizing, check the last pic)
Does anyone know how the shrinkage is for this brand? I'm 5"5 and fluctuate around 165. however most gi's can get pretty tight around my chest as i'm stockier than most. I'm leaning towards the A1H since my weight is right at the tail end of an A1 and I figure I may be able to shrink it. but im not 100% sure. Any experiences with this brand from anyone?
I think its a 300gsm top. Link; https://fightaesthetic.jp/collections/new-arrivals/products/????????-ultralite-kikko-???-white-3?????4????????
These look good; anyone have thoughts on size? I wear an A2 Maeda that fits good (top seems to have got a bit tight sue to shrinkage). Tried a Hyperfly hyperlyte A2, but was a bit baggy and still didn’t fit right quite right after trying to shrink it.
Can we please get a consensus on what the gsm is? 450 or 300?
This gi is badass but im gonna hold put for a black gi for my next one
According to this Japanese product page, 450 gsm jacket and cotton twill pants https://tenmei-japan.com/products/aesthetic-kikko-kimono-black
This looks more like "Ultra-lite Kikko" though.. 300gsm..
Sizing? Gsm?
Fart
where da soap at?
Having to call a coach "professor" is so cringey and dumb "Professor". I mean gimmie a fuckin' break, dude. What else do you want me to call you? Your highness? Do you want me to fondle your nuts while I blow you, too? I've seriously seen gyms where they'll say "Sensei" and the coach will be like "It's "Professor" young man!!" Fuck off. How much of an egotist you gotta be to care about some medieval-ass title? It's some LARPING I'd expect kids to do. "Oh Billy you have to call me supreme ruler snorlax the magical wizard!!1!" Shut up.
Dude really needs a waterbreak
Medieval what? HAHAHA!!! BJJ is Brazilian, dude. Professor means teacher here. I bet you thought that'd be a japanese tradition... Man, what a strange age we're livin' in. People really love to find something to problematize and complain about.
Only after the black belt a practicioner who teatches can be called a master. You should know that before crying on-line.
Your hqndle sounds like youre apotential pedo
Don't care, didn't ask.
Why you so hurt homie? Dont like it? Dont train there more room on the mats for the people who actually checked their ego at the door.
This post is so bad it actually made me wish for the Chimps to return.
Sensei does sound weird af, but professor makes sense because they are teachers of BJJ.
