No matter what the weight or fabric of the canvas karate uniform you are looking for, Pacific Sports never compromise on the quality. We have the most competitive quality in the market that makes our uniform prices amazing value.

A canvas karate uniform is usually worn by an experienced practitioner, not a beginner. The reason for this is the stiffness and weight of the uniform. Learning the movements of martial art requires lots of full-body movement, stretching, kicking and punching at the least. These techniques are more comfortable to learn in a lightweight beginner's uniform than in the heavier stiffer fabric of a canvas karate uniform.

While a beginners karate uniform is made up of a jacket, pants and white belt, the canvas karate uniform is made up of the jacket and pants only. Being for experienced practitioners it is considered that a belt is not necessary, the practitioner will have a belt already.

Although the fabric of a canvas karate uniform is stiff initially, it becomes softer and more malleable with washing and wears. Even if after many years it may become frayed in some areas and obviously an old gi, some practitioners hate to part with their gi’s, loving the way it has molded to their shape and become an old favorite.

Every Pacific Sports canvas karate uniform is 100% cotton. The fabric absorbs sweat and keeps the wearer comfortable through the toughest training session. These hardwearing gi’s should be washed after every training session, dried outside in the fresh air as much as possible and it will last for many years.

The prices of our products vary depending on the weight of the canvas but all products are sensibly priced and we offer several choices of postage to help you receive your uniform in the shortest possible time frame and at a reasonable cost.
