Jacket Alteration - Sleeves Cut

  • Adjust the fit by shortening the sleeves of your jacket.
  • The length that is chosen in the selector is the length you want to shorten (cut off) on each sleeve. On average, customers demand a shortening of 6 to 12 cm. Refer to the size chart of each Dogi to know the precise length of the sleeves, but do not forget to take shrinkage into account (about 2 cm).
  • This is a good option, if you like a larger cut (or an overall larger size) but still prefer shorter sleeves.

Note that the depth and extension of ideograms are a sign of an open mind.

  • Takemusu Aiki - Gyoshotai (cursive font) : Aikido concept, the unity of martial techniques through the concept of Aiki.

Optionally, you can add your name as embroidery. It will be embroidered on the left of the bottom part (same high as the Seido label), with a font size of 2 cm by 2 cm.

    品質はとても良いです。

    10号帆布なので厚手ですが、固すぎて動きづらいとかもなく非常に良いと思います。
    型を沢山やる方が着るとよいと思います。私は175cmで5号を買いました。
    10cm袖をカットして腕周りはちょうどよかったと思います。
    ただ身幅が若干私には長かったので、次回は4号を購入します。
    とにかく大変高品質な純日本製の空手着がこの値段で買えることに感謝です。
    ありがとうございます。

    As advertised, and so as delivered.

    I was vacillating between brands in Japan for ordering a karate gi. I opted for Seido for the quality advertised, dimensions readily available, customization, and finally price point. My gi top arrived today, and I found it to be as advertised. The customized sleeve length, quality of heavy weight fabric, and construction is well above my expectations. I honestly could not be more satisfied with my order.

    produit très qualitatif

    gi d'excellente qualité, le tissu est épais, les coutures solides, la coupe très traditionnelle. Taille plutôt un peu grand (taille 180-185, les manches tombent parfaitement pour taille réelle 183cm) mais je suis plutôt filiforme et je n'ai porté la veste qu'une fois donc pas encore lavé. Mention spéciale pour le suivi de la commande, la rapidité de livraison, l'emballage.

    Heavy Weight Karate Gi Jacket #10

    Extremely fast delivery. I ordered it on Nov. 14th, and it arrived on Nov. 21st. The quality of the fit is the best of any gi jacket I have ever owed, and the cotton is softer and more flexible, as compared with other manufacturers who produce jackets that are almost as stiff as cardboard. Overall, the quality of the workmanship is superb!

    My Favorite Gi

    After trying gis from other prominent manufacturers in Japan and Okinawa, I was on a mission to find the best fitting, heavy weight gi made in Japan. I am 5'6" and 140 pounds and struggle to find gis that fit correctly. Either the jackets are too short, or the pants are too long, or it's all a bit too big all around.

    The Seido gi fits perfectly out of the bag, with no alterations needed. The fit is slimmer than some traditional Okinawan brands, but not restrictive in any sense. Range of motion is such that the gi is never a thought - it disappears into the background as it should. The fabric is supple and soft while also substantial, the construction quality is top notch, and the weight of the fabric allows for good snap during kata.

    While not every gi is perfect for every person, in my case, the Seido gi checks every box. This is going to be my go-to gi from now on. Truly excellent.

    Qualité remarquable et conseils avisés

    Colis reçu dans un temps record et commande conforme à mes attentes. Après avoir porté exclusivement des karategi Adidas, je cherchais à me faire plaisir avec un vêtement de qualité fabriqué au Japon et une coupe plus traditionnelle (manches et jambes plus longues). La différence de qualité dans la coupe et le soin des coutures est notable au premier coup d'oeil. Les broderies sont impeccables.
    Mes principales craintes résidaient dans le choix des tailles. Les recommandations qui m'ont été données étaient très pertinentes. J'ai fait confiance et ce karategi me correspond comme si je l'avais essayé en magasin.
    J'ai choisi un modèle lourd pour avoir plus de sensations en kihon et en kata. Là encore aucune déception. Il vaut son prix.

    Excellent

    I ordered the heavyweight "biotech" treated karategi and received it earlier than expected. This is without a doubt the nicest practice uniform that I have ever worn, and it is very soft and comfortable, without feeling flimsy. Simple, classic, and elegant.
