I'm fairly new to BJJ and I wanted to buy a gi without breaking the bank. With the sale price point I decided to purchase the apprentice gi. Soon as it arrived in the mail I excitedly tried it on, only to my disappointment It was a bit too big. So I contacted matsuru customer service and they responded to me right away and notified my new A2 size was out for delivery. So the customer service was top notch. As for the gi, it's a bit early for me to say the quality and how well it holds up. But it does feel really durable and best part is its lightweight.
