Help: looking for Fist brand KF uniform

[xcakid]

Just as the title says.

Went to a couple of local MA stores and they don't carry them. They can "special order" but would cost me nearly $60 for a set. Forget that. My google fu is weak and all I came up with was the pants for $22. Anyone know where I can get a full set all black?

Really like this brand. My kwoon sells another brand that is a bit stiff.

Any help would be appreciated thanks.

i picked up a set of Fist brand gloves years ago and never could find an internet source for their equipment...just tried again, no-go.

Dang, I thought it was my google-fu that was weak. Guess these guys are hard to find....:(

yea, the TC pants are pretty good. 100% cotton and the soften nicely over time and have will give you 2-3 years of service if not more....but they do shrink quite a bit so size up when you order.

That's the site I found. I use to get them at this place in S.F. Chinatown. I was hoping there would be a website that sells them. The tops at Beijing Imports are 3/4 sleeves my school uses full sleeves. :( I really like the cotton twill fabric. Specially during the summer.

I'll check the one sold at Martial arts mart when I get home. My work for some reason blocks it for being "weapons related"

Can't y'all carry six shooters in public in Texas? And they block us because we sell nunchuks (http://www.martialartsmart.net/Nunchakus.html)? :rolleyes:

Thanks for the plug Yum Cha & Oso. You guys rock. And I totally agree about the size up thing. Our cottons are supposed to be pre-shrunk, but I always experience a lot of shrinkage too. Nothing geeky-er than kung fu flood pants. Capri cuts went out a long time ago.

:D Yes we can carry concealed firearms here in TX, but dangit, we can't use company time to shop for "weapons". Guess they have to draw the line somewhere.

So I gues if I wear a 6 I should get a 7?

Yeah I guess flooded KF pants and looking like you smuggle grapes would not be to cool. :D

I suggest staying out of the cold water. :p

I'm buying all my pants at TC now. I'm so close to Knoxville i get next day delivery.

I bought some sashes once but returned them...they are really thin and wimpy looking. Be nice to see them upgrade to a heavier fabric and more vibrant colors.

I've been happy with everything else I've purchased there and the customer service is great.



:D

probably so but if you are less than 180, the 7's will be a bit to baggy at first.

but, at least the 7's are available for us earthy tiger types...

I was 180 once. I am now a hefty 5'11" 205lbs guy. :(

[GeneChing]

ok, 150+lb :o

Definitely go a size up.

OK so I order up a few things from Martial Arts Mart to do my part for the site. Order placed on 4/12. Still no ship. :confused:

Am I being impatient?
