Man, the prices are heavy. I wear the same keikogi and hakama for the last 8 years, wash them every week (no they don't fade if you know what you are doing) and spent less than US$120 on the both together.

Mine have faded a little bit but yes, if you are careful with the wash the loss will be minimal.

Still, I love the look of worn keikogis. I have two sets of kiekogi and hakama as Ireland is not the easiest place to get your clothes dry, I don't use a tumble dryer.

About cotton hakama, they look great, but I find them a huge pain compared to rayon, I only really use for gradings, competitions and special ocasions (or when the rayon stuff is in the wash)

I don't wash the hakama as often as the gi anyway

Nice thing is that $200 USD these days is like 130 euro ) so that won't hurt much.

I have a #8000 gi and hakama for 3 years now. It lost some color but hey it's all fine to practise in.

I have a seperate set for special occasions which is still nicely dark blue.

I didn't get #10000 because I was advised against it by my sensei because of our hot summers.

He told me a #8000 would be good enough and if I really wanted then i could get a #10000 set for seminars and exams.

I'm happy that I followed his advise. Even though when a group got #10000 gi and hakama I was very much tempted to buy me a set too as it does look really nice.

Yes but we don't let them rule anything anymore. Just let them talk to plants or make racist comments when on official trips abroad etc etc

Actually, I thought about that.

I have the tetron-hakama for the heavy duty trainings and seminars,and I have one cotton hakama,which I bought without a proper consideration . . .
An eager beginner wishing a cotton hakama.
It's made of an utterly soft cotton,so I'm having difficulties with the pleats,and I don't mean after washing...
Beside that,it's an brilliant summer solution...
The #10000 is for the special occasions . . .

I cant find it...
I dont think it exists...

I originally bought a tetron hakama but couldn't stand how it breathed. It just felt like an oven during the summer, nice in the winter tough. I ended up with the cotton heavy duty one, which I have no complaints about. The pleats are kind of a pain, you just have to iron them every so often.
